As we watch superhero movies dominate Deadline’s Most Profitable Pic tournament, it was just a matter of time before Netflix got in that game. Sure enough, sources say they are wrapping up deals with Octavia Spencer and Melissa McCarthy to star this fall in Thunder Force, a film that Ben Falcone has written and will direct. They are keeping the specifics under wraps, but I’m told the story will center on the two stars getting superpowers.

The film will be produced by Marc Platt, Falcone and McCarthy. Spencer is coming off exec producing Best Picture winner Green Book,

Ugh, Ben Falcone.

Shingster · 03-30-2019, 05:41 AM

Hmm, you think Melissa McCarthy slept with the writer/director/co-producer to get the gig?

I just hope it doesn’t cause a bunch of meltdowns if it’s a bad movie and gets reviewed poorly.

SilverFox84 · 04-06-2021, 06:57 PM

ooof, that looks horrible.

More like Thunderclap, ammi right?

Has anyone actually watched this?

MazeRunner · 04-14-2021, 10:41 PM

Melissa McCarthy went from having multiple $100M+ domestic earners at the box office, to doing Netflix movies nobody cares about. Oof.

X400 · 04-14-2021, 11:00 PM

I tried watching this, got 30mins or so in, it wasn't horrible, but I would literally choose to do/watch anything else instead, so I never finished it

Absolute garbage. A waste of a talented cast, with painfully unfunny humour, and ad-libs. Bateman is the only actor that mildly amused me, with his typical snarkiness, and I laughed about twice, but it's otherwise another Ben Falcone trainwreck.

1.5/5

Considering pretty much everyone is doing Netflix movies now this doesn't seem like much of a diss.

If this indeed sucks, I don't know why you guys are surprised?

I mean, the "and James Corden" credit should have told you that already!

True - but lets be honest here: Between the streaming services and how they are all just chucking content around left and right, most of will suck. I think this meets the suck criteria.

Nope - it had suck-like properties from the get go. McCarthy isnt so bad as an entertainer but this film just reeked of "dafuq?" What? Who? Like they arent even hotties. Sorry had to say it.

. No need to watch this. There's fairly fresh paint in our upstairs foyer I can keep an eye on.

I didn’t think this was the worst of Falcone directed movies. In my opinion Tammy, The Boss and Life of the Party were way worse IMO.
