The Heat (2013)
Bullock & McCarthy are an absolute blast!
The Heat is achingly funny to say the least. I think it was the first time since Bridesmaids where I noticed a theatre laughing so much. The Bullock/McCarthy duo is a prime example of perfect casting and I've never enjoyed an on-screen team as much as this one. The effective team is what carries the picture and the main reason the movie feels fresh even though we've seen many buddy cop comedies prior to this. I would not be shocked if come December both Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy earn Golden Globe nominations for Best Performance by an Actress in a Comedy or Musical, they're really that great. You couldn't ask for a better supporting cast either with Marlon Wayans, Jane Curtin and Demian Bichir all adding a touch of spice to what is already piping hot. I'd recommend The Heat without a doubt, take a few friends to the theatre and you'll have a ball!
Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close (2011)
An incredible film fuelled by terrific performances from Sandra Bullock, Max von Sydow and Thomas Horn.
"Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close" is a dazzling film with stunning visuals and an engaging storyline fuelled by powerhouse performances from the whole cast, though the award nominations should stack up for both Sandra Bullock and Max von Sydow in particular! Thomas Horn delivers an astonishing performance which for a newcomer should affirm his place in the industry as it's one of the best young performances I have everseen! Stephen Daldry should be recognised for his beautiful achievementand extraordinary direction! On a whole, I would describe "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close" as a beautiful film and a wonderful ensemble! Watch out for "Extremely Loud" at the Academy Awards in February!
