Did Melissa McCarthy ruin it for you?

Read or heard from people that they were upset that she was in, McCarthy is one of those actresses that not many people care about, maybe it's because she's got a punchable face or she's not a hottie for young boys or she's a loud overweight woman, I don't know what it is but not many care about McCarthy at all.

McCarthy ruined a lot of it but it was a mess even without her. Aidy Bryant would have been a much, much better addition to this movie.

Good observation. Bryant has a similar physical appearance but is genuinely funny. She seems to be a humble person with a fine sense of humor and self irony. McCarthy on the other hand comes across as smug and obnoxious.

Don't need to be loud and obnoxious to be funny.

You don't need to be pug ugly to be funny, look at the women in Modern Family they're not hideous.

No, Kate McKinnon did. I hate her face and she's not even remotely as funny as she clearly thinks she is.

Being fat doesn't automatically make you funny.
