My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

The Heat (2013)

A female buddy cop comedy starring Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy? I love the idea but I have to admit I didn’t know if they’d have very good chemistry. What was I worried about? These two ladies are perfect for each other. Bullock’s FBI agent is the straight lady and McCarthy the violent, screaming crazy cop. There are many laugh out loud moments and the story is pretty good considering it’s Bullock and McCarthy’s odd couple relationship that carries the film. If you don’t like McCarthy’s style of comedy then this might not be for you, I thought it was very enjoyable. Let’s hope they make a sequel because I think they could continue to expand on this relationship. Grade: B+
