Movie: The Heat

OH MY GOD! This was a great movie. Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy make a great freaking pair. It's a funny freaking movie.

Sandra Bullock is an overachieving FBI agent. She solves problems that others have a hard time solving and doesn't exactly play nice with others. Her whole office hates her.

She gets an email one night about a promotion from a position being opened and guess who wants it. Well of course, so she goes to her boss to talk about it and he says if she can work well with some people in Boston on a new assignment he might be able to help her out with the new promotion.

Melissa McCarthy is a detective trying to look into some drug dealers (which is the case that Sandra Bullock is working). She's a very interesting detective with her strategies and it's a very funny introduction.

When Sandra Bullock steals one of her prisoners to interrogate him and use him in her investigation, McCarthy becomes interested in the situation and kinda tags a long.

Bullock tries to get her boss to get McCarthy off the case, but it's unsuccessful, so Bullock has to survive it if she wants that promotion.

This is where the movie becomes interesting and very fun. The first person they visit is a woman who is a drug supplier, this is where you get a feel for the different styles they have in interrogations.

After a little while of getting to know more about each other, Bullock learns that McCarthy put her brother in jail for drugs and that he is now connected to the current situation.

After being told she is no longer on the job, Bullock is crushed and McCarthy takes her to get drunk and she does. It's very funny at the bar. Afterwards, they learn that McCarthy's family is in trouble and her brother gives them information and ends up getting hurt when they find out he's a rat. This pisses McCarthy off because she tried to tell Bullock that they couldn't do it.

Bullock then deciedes to not let McCarthy do this on her own, they go back to the drug dealer's house and this time, Bullock does things the way McCarthy wants to do it.

When they figure out where the drug cartel is, they go to take it down. They get caught and they find out that the leader is actually one of men that was supposed to help them, and also how all the inside information is being spread to the cartel.

When they get out they need to get to the hospital before he kills McCarthy's brother.

Once they save her brother, Bullock and McCarthy end up becoming a good team solving crimes together as "The Heat"
