Theater Whore: Tammy


Tammy 4/10

Another movie Dashuh and I watched was Tammy starring Melissa McCarthy and directed by her husband who is also in the film Ben Falcone. I only mention that since it is brought up in every interview about this movie. This is about an annoying woman that gets fired from her job and ends up going with her grandmother played by Susan Sarandon. Let me say, Tammy looks nothing like her mother or grandmother. No one looks related. Anyhoot, Tammy also figures her husband is cheating. No one likes her and I couldn’t figure out why anyone even put up with her bullshit.


As she and her grandmother travel they start to find out new things about one another. Like how unlikable either of them are. Seriously, I know that the last few years the thing has been to have someone who is really annoying but they are balanced out by a straight man. Someone for the jerk to play off of. In this it was just a series of bad people doing bad things to each other or being put into bad situations with other bad people. When bad things happened to Tammy I couldn’t really feel too bad about it because she was such a dick that she deserved it.
