Melissa McCarthy is very funny ,but can get very boring after about 30 seconds
seeing the TV preview ads, all I could think is that Hollyweird asked themselves -”How bad of a movie can I make?”
My sense is they’ve done a good job in that regard. Sadly, they will try again.
Now tell us what you really think, don’t hold back, Rex
I am so there!
The LA Crimes raked her over the coals for repeating basically the same character in several movies.
Mixed reaction. I liked her in Bridesmaids and The Heat.
Seems like McCarthy’s last three movies have the same character .
Crazy, fat woman doing stupid things.
Rex Reed is still alive?
I enjoyed Tammy but I was born in a much simpler time. I have been a Debbie fan since I was young. I even like the song.
This was one of the best critical eviscerations I’ve ever read. Alexander Woollcott (google him) once reviewed a self published book titled, “And I Shall Make Music”. His review was “Not on my carpet, lady.”
Wow. If Zorro was a movie reviewer, he would have been Rex Reed. I’m surprised Reed is still even reviewing. He’s from the old school of professionalism, where one despises almost everything with equal flourish and destain. The way Mr. Blackwell used to be about women’s clothing.
I did find his description of Susan Sarrandon funny; “A drunken nymphomatic Grandma.”
Is that you, Rex Reed ?
I hope the movie bombs and disappears, only because they stole the name of a classic movie.
The fact that UNFUNNY Will Ferrell can still make movies proves this wrong.
Modern surgery&medicine has come a long way when it comes to transplants.
Sadly, they can not yet transplant laughter and guffaws where they would do us all benefit.
They used to do it, but somewhere along the way, Hollyweird got diverted. Probably global warming.
Just from seeing the commercials, I gotta go with Rex.
They’re desperately trying to include FAT in the new normal.
"The worst movie I’ve seen this year is Mulholland Drive , a load of moronic and incoherent garbage from David Lynch that started out as a rejected TV pilot and predictably ended up at the New York Film Festival, where pretentious poseurs sit with their eyes glued to any screen as long as the projector is still running. From this bizarro atrocity, they should get astigmatism."
"... loathsome, incomprehensible and dismayingly amateurish Mulholland Drive . . ."
Yep, that's catty. And accurate.
Rexth Reed
I haven’t seen the show and probably won’t. Nevertheless, isn’t Rex Reed about 268 years old?
This looks so bad, I’m surprised it got made.
I don’t imagine McCarthy’s fans will like it either, it clearly puts big fat slobs in a terrible light. The “fat pride” people should be up in arms.
