      Ashburn's yearbook is Sandra Bullock's actual 1982 yearbook from Washington-Lee High School in Arlington, Virginia. The art department digitally manipulated Bullock's picture to include glasses and braces, neither of which she had in her original high school senior portrait. They also took out all the signatures within the book.
    • Goofs
      (at around 58 mins) When Mullins takes Ashburn to her parents house. The family is arguing at the table and her brother enters the front door carrying a bag of shopping. The bag starts off with nothing in the top, then bread appears, then it disappears again.

    Please Do A Heat 2

    Sandra and Melissa have such an amazing chemistry! It's like they are just natural when it comes to working together. Of course this movie had some of the wall scenes and over the top moments but what do you expect from Melissa McCarthy. I enjoyed the movie and it was extremely funny and family-oriented and what is definitely needed during this Covid-19 pandemic time......many laughs.
