- Manuel Frangis30 marzo 2025I just watched Tammy, and I give it 2.5 out of 5 stars. I really wanted to like this one more than I did. Melissa McCarthy is hilarious and usually brings a ton of energy to her roles, but this movie just felt like it could not decide what kind of story it wanted to tell. It has moments that made me laugh, but a lot of it feels uneven, and the pacing is kind of all over the place. The story follows Tammy, played by McCarthy, who is having the worst day ever. She loses her job, finds out her husband is cheating on her, and ends up going on a road trip with her alcoholic grandmother, played by Susan Sarandon. That setup has a lot of potential for a wild, funny road trip movie, and while some scenes do hit, most of them just feel awkward or stretched too far. Melissa McCarthy gives it her all like she always does. She has that same chaotic energy that made her breakout roles work so well, but here it feels like the movie does not know how to use it. Sometimes she is totally unhinged, crashing jet skis or yelling in diners, and other times the movie tries to get really serious out of nowhere. That shift in tone is kind of jarring. It is not that she cannot do both comedy and drama, but the script does not blend those moments smoothly. Susan Sarandon is solid in her role, but the grandma character is strange. She is supposed to be this wild, hard drinking, inappropriate figure, but a lot of her dialogue just feels off. Some jokes land, others fall flat, and sometimes it is hard to tell what the movie is even going for. Their chemistry is decent, and there are a few heartwarming moments that feel genuine, but they are buried under too many scenes that drag. The supporting cast is actually stacked with talent. You have Kathy Bates, Dan Aykroyd, Allison Janney, and Toni Collette all showing up at different points. A few of them bring life to their scenes, especially Kathy Bates, who steals one of the best moments in the movie. But most of the side characters do not get enough screen time to really make an impact, which is a shame because they could have added a lot more fun or emotion if they had more to do. The pacing is the biggest issue here. The movie starts off loud and chaotic, then hits long stretches where not much happens. Some scenes feel like improv that goes on too long, and other scenes feel like they are trying to be deep but do not really build on anything. It ends up being this mix of random comedy bits and sudden emotional turns, but neither side really goes all in. I give Tammy 2.5 out of 5 stars because it has some laughs and a few moments that work, but overall it just does not come together. It feels like it wants to be a raunchy road comedy and a heartfelt family drama at the same time, and it never fully figures out how to balance the two. Overall Tammy is a movie with a great cast and some potential, but it gets lost in a messy tone and uneven storytelling. If you are a big Melissa McCarthy fan, it might be worth checking out, but do not expect anything close to her best work.
