I couldn't stand Jason Statham. Then many years ago I watched Spy with Melissa McCarthy and he was the perfect piss take of his characters from so many other movies. Example scene that shows his comedic stupidity. Ever since I haven't minded the guy.
If you want another comedic stupidity, he has some funny parts in Snatch. Can't be bothered to watch his copy&paste action movies, too, though.
It's worth watching. I used to not care for Melissa McCarthy because she always just seemed to play the "funny fat lady" parts, but in Spy she was pretty good.
Oh that clip is brilliant. Must give the movie a watch.
I think it's definitely worth watching. I used to not care for Melissa McCarthy because she was always typecast as a "funny fat lady" cliche, but she was pretty good in Spy.
Check out the film Can You Ever Forgive Me? It's Melissa McCarthy in a far more dramatic role than her usual (but still darkly funny) and she is amazing in it. She gets to do so much more than her usual schtick.
It's fantastic! I haven't seen it in a little bit, I think I'll watch it tonight.
