Though, I guess I'll defend her a little bit, only because I thought that she was pretty funny in The Heat. Oh, and her five minutes in This is 40 almost killed me.<br /><br />That said, this one really is a steaming pile of awful.

I can't stand McCarthy. I feel a little bad for saying that, like I should probably like her, but she's incredibly overrated. Especially in Bridesmaids. I can't believe she got an Oscar nomination for essentially playing Zack Galifinakis' character in The Hangover.

I have never been a huge fan of Melissa McCarthy. I thought she was O.K. in Bridesmaids, but not terrific enough to rest on her laurels and make a string of mediocre movies, if you know what I mean.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06574641672605054506noreply@blogger.com
