The Heat (2013) Plot: Uptight and straight-laced, FBI Special Agent Sarah Ashburn (Sandra Bullock) is a methodical investigator with a reputation for excellence--and hyper-arrogance. Shannon Mullins (Melissa McCarthy), one of Boston P.D.’s “finest,” is foul-mouthed and has a very short fuse, and uses her gut instinct and street smarts to catch the most elusive criminals. Neither has ever had a partner, or a friend for that matter. When these two wildly incompatible law officers join forces to bring down a ruthless drug lord, they become the last thing anyone expected: buddies. From Paul Feig, the director of Bridesmaids. Review: This movie start out to be quite funny but then it goes downhill after a while. If they would have made it shorter without some of the ridiculous scenes, then it would have been much better, but it just seemed to drag after a while. The chemistry between the 2 characters was great but some of the scenes, like the dancing scene, went a bit too far. Apart from that, its harmless fun which obviously went down well at the box office. Watchable! Round-Up: Its hard to believe that Sandra Bullock came out with this film in the same year of Gravity, which is supposed to be a magnificent movie. She isnt on the big screen as much as she was in the 90s, but she has been making some great choices in the latter part of her career. As for Melissa McCarthy, she just cant seem to do anything wrong nowadays. For someone who played a cameo in Bridesmaids, she has totally blown-up since then. If you watch the movie on DVD, I think that you will enjoy the out takes more than the whole movie. Budget: $43million Worldwide Gross: $230million I recommend this movie to people who are into there cop comedies. 5/10
