The Heat is a new buddy cop comedy starring Sandra Bullock and Melissa Mccarthy. The basic premise follows an FBI agent teaming up with a Boston Police Officer as they try to bust this big drug lord. Going into this movie I was worried about one thing: Melissa Mccarthy. I thought that she was going to over do it, or act to over the top. At times this happened, but thank god that it almost never did. If it had happened this movie wouldn't have been as funny as it was.
The Heat is really funny, and I think that it's thanks to Bullock's and Mccarthy's great chemistry. The dynamic between them is great, and makes for some really hilarious moments. Mccarthy gets the best moments though, as her character is funny in (almost) every single scene. The movie is pretty cliche though, as every single plot point is completely predictable. I really wish that this type of films were a bit more original. It would have been more enjoyable if I didn't know where every single plot point was going to go. Even the big twist was predictable.
Is The Heat the funniset movie of the year? No, but it is a really good time at the movies and I definitely would recommend it. it is predictable, but very very funny and has great performances from Bullock and Mccarthy. The Heat gets 3.5/5
