After losing her job and learning that her husband has been unfaithful, a woman hits the road with her profane, hard-drinking grandmother.
The result is an ill-conceived mess.
Tammy may not a comedy masterpiece, but McCarthy has comedy star quality.
As erratic as Tammy’s driving, veering dangerously from gross-out comedy to rank sentimentality with no real sense of where it is headed.
The characters are likeable enough but – our affection for the actors notwithstanding – there's little reason to care what happens to them.
An American comedy which dares not to gloat about its sharp political subtexts.
There are brushes with the law and flirtations encounters along the way to some valuable life lessons. Let’s just say it is not exactly Thelma And Louise.
A mostly mirthless vehicle for McCarthy.
Melissa McCarthy and Ben Falcone's oddball odyssey boasts a star cast but spreads the laughs too thinly.
Everyone is trapped in a frantic, funless mess of a road movie headed nowhere.
