The Heat

Molly McCarthy playing Molly McCarthy (or at least the typecast version of herself that has come to be), and Sandra Bullock working really hard to play a straight laced, no-fun FBI agent. The latter manifests itself in the form of strange facial tics that really feel unnatural. The plot is a straight forward cross between The Odd Couple and traditional buddy-cop fare. Wild-side local cop McCarthy and mechanical FBI agent Bullock end up working together to take down a rising drug kingpin in Boston. Hijinks ensue. A few funny moments, nothing worth writing more about.
