Melissa McCarthy – M.U.S.E. Enthusiasts

‘The Little Mermaid’ movie review

Disney does it right with this live action remake! The expected lush colors and whimsical scenes are all there to dazzle your eyes. I actually don’t recall if I’ve ever completely seen the original animated movie. Halle does a great job of the reinvisioning of the character and Disney includes all cultures. There are a few dark scenes so the littles may close their eyes a couple times. I saw it in IMAX and it was great; I may see it again in 3D.

‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ Movie Review

I’m a huge Marvel fan and to see original Avengers back on the big screen is always a fun time. There’s lot of humor. A different type of Marvel movie but still fun. I saw it in Dolby and will see it again in IMAX 3-D. Yes, there are two end credit scenes!

‘The Kitchen’ Movie Review

Kitchen movie

The premise of the movie reminded me of one from last year. The era is the 70’s and three mobsters go to jail and their wives are left to fend for themselves unless they toughen up and take over their territories. Engaging enough yet there’s a twist towards the end that was unexpected and kinda changed the premise of the storyline. It was good to see Tiffiany Haddish in a serious role. Definitely set up for a sequel.

‘Can You Ever Forgive Me’ Movie Review

Can You Ever poster

Based on the true story of best-selling celebrity biographer Lee Israel, she finds herself out of touch with current readers and ventures wrongly because of desperate times to making an income. This is a different role for McCarthy that I feel she pulled off. Decent movie and worth checking out.

‘The Happytime Murders’ Movie Review

hap

The storyline is engaging enough for a world with puppets, lol. Funny with lots of sexual content. Not for children.

‘Life of the Party’ Movie Review

I didn’t have any good expectations and I was pleasantly surprised that the movie is fun and funny with a cast that has chemistry. The premise of a mom going back to college joining her daughter there can be a hit or a miss and this one is a hit. Lots of fun nostalgia from the 90’s. There’s a cameo from Christina Aguilera.

‘Ghostbusters (2016)’ Movie Review

With all the great trailers I’m sure nostalgic fans of the original movie were wondering how would an all female lead cast compare to the 1984 classic. Well, I probably need to see the original again but I totally enjoyed this film. The storyline is fun and engaging and it’s absolutely gorgeous in IMAX 3D. This is my favorite Summertime popcorn movie, thus far. It was GEAT seeing a few faces from the original film and the 1989 sequel. There’s a cool music video and pic collage during the credits. Yes, there’s an end credit scene so enjoy the music and screen until the everything turns black.

‘Central Intelligence’ Movie Review

I guess it was inevitable that these two would co-star in a movie based on their size…big vs. small, lol. Somewhat cheesy and unrealistic gun shoot out scenes (lots of bullets with a rare hit) yet it was still entertaining and had a message about bullying. The movie out-takes at the end were funnier than scenes in the movie. Three A-List celebrities make cameo appearances.

‘The Boss’ Movie Review

Despite the initial bad reviews I still wanted to see this film. Overall, I thought it was funny and held my attention. There’s this really funny girl street fight that a lot of people (mother’s) may not approve of but it is really funny. Although children are in the film, there’s lots of profanity. I wondered if after losing weight Melissa needed to tighten her neck muscles because she wore high neck sweaters the entire film (probably just the character). Well, I’ve seen her promoting this film and she showed her neck so it was probably just for the character. #GOT Peter Dinklage also co-stars in this film.

‘Spy’ Movie Review

Melissa McCarthy’s character, Susan Cooper, is similar to all of her movie roles yet her fans enjoy it. Funny, gross humor and not for children. I did enjoy seeing Jason Statham in a comedy film. Melissa’s co-star from ‘Bridesmaids’ Rose Byrne, have good comedic chemistry.
