Even Identity Thief was fairly enjoyable with a sold-out audience, IMO. I fully expect The Heat to be better though.

Identity Thief was the most unfunny POS

Let it happen. Accept it.

Also, I liked FF6 on repeat viewings. I actually loved it. I was wrong

This movie was absolute garbage. Second least favorite film of the year. [D+]

Thank you! See, I'm not crazy!

...so when the poll comes up, dont think my 1 is a troll vote. I have seen the movie and it is my honest opinion.

Typed up a slightly fuller review on Letterboxd and thought I'd share it here.
As always, if you feel differently, more power to ya. Just sharing my opinion.

No spoilers here - just general impressions.

There was a time when Sandra Bullock made movies I enjoyed - Speed, While You Were Sleeping, A Time To Kill... She then moved on to making not particularly good, but harmless movies (The Proposal, Miss Congeniality, etc). Now her descent into complete crap is complete.

To be fair, it's mostly not her fault. She's still pretty much in Congeniality-style mediocrity mode, while Melissa McCarthy is what makes this film practically unwatchable. A little Melissa McCarthy goes a long way, especially when she just plays variations on the same character in every single film she does. The only difference here is the addition of hundreds of F-bombs.

It's always annoying when movies like horror or action flicks tone everything down just to get a PG13 rating to sell more tickets. But equally stupid is to artificially reach for an R. This film is exactly the kind of comedy that sits firmly in PG13 territory, but here they have bafflingly shoehorned in tons of cussing for no apparent reason. I have no moral objection to it - hell, I use profanity like punctuation - but here it just feels out of place and serves no purpose. It adds nothing to the film. The irony of it is, the same women who will laugh their asses off at this movie would complain about the unnecessary excessive profanity if the exact same language was in a teen comedy or something.

But the bottom line is that this "comedy" just isn't funny. The jokes are lame, unoriginal, obvious, and repetitive. I think I chuckled a total of four times. The only thing enjoyable about it was spotting supporting actors I like and feeling sorry for them being in this - Tom "Biff Tannen" WIlson, Kaitlin Olson from "Always Sunny", Taran Killam, Michael Rappaport, ...even Joey McIntyre from NKOTB shows up.

That being said, this movie will probably be wildly successful. The lonely cat ladies who made up 90% of the audience were cackling and howling at every single pathetic attempt at humor. These people must not watch very many movies. Their humor barometers are WAY off.

So, for the select few who have seen both, which are you digging more: The Heat or Identity Thief?

[Britnasty]

Going to see this tonight at a screening so I will give my review when I get home. Obviously I think I'm going to love it since I love Melissa McCarthy and I enjoy Sandra Bullock as well.

I did like Identity Thief a lot (could've used 15 minutes if trimming though, having a Bounty Hunter on top of gangsters and Jason Batemen was too much) so I'm expecting to enjoy this.

Yess turn up

This movie looks awesome

[Britnasty]

Yup, LOVED IT. A solid 4.5/5 for me.

It was HILARIOUS. Melissa and Sandra had an undeniable chemistry and I am soooo happy a sequel has already been greenlit.

This has easily been Sandra Bullock's most likeable role since The Proposal. Her role, and added chemistry with Melissa, harkened back to the role that turned me into a fan of hers: Miss Congeniality.

Coming in at 1 hour and 54 minutes, I honestly did not find myself wanting any cuts anywhere whatsoever. The backstories we were provided for each character were perfect and by the end of the film, I even shed a tear at a very specific moment.

Will definitely be seeing this again when it comes out.

Tied with This is the End on hilarity for me.

My audience was in stitches the entire time, thankfully the sound was loud enough to not miss any jokes.

Though I obviously disagree with you, I completely respect your differing opinion. I am curious, though, about your observation of this as her most likeable role in a long time. The movie specifically makes a point of her character being a very unlikeable person.

I know if you love it, I will.
