A traditional cops as buddies film with the twist that the two cops are female. Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy are the odd couple in The Heat, a film which may use a very familiar template but is above average for the genre.
Bullock and McCarthy are quite convincing as the opposites that eventually attract.....platonically, of course. They are in search of a Mr Big in the drug trade and naturally they face and overcome all manner of impediments along the way.
I can see a sequel coming.
★★★1/3
