Tammy
For burger-joint employee Tammy, a bad day keeps getting worse. She wrecks her car, loses her job, and finds that her husband has been unfaithful. It's time to hit the road, but without money or transportation, Tammy's options are limited. Her only choice is a road trip with her hard-drinking grandmother Pearl, who has a car, cash, and an itch to see Niagara Falls. It's not the escape Tammy had in mind, but it may be what she needs.
Critics Sentiment
Bobby surprises Tammy at Niagara Falls for reunion
Pearl humiliates Tammy about weight at July 4th party
The film's lowest point at the Fourth of July party where Pearl cruelly humiliates Tammy rebounds to Lenore's more genuine emotional support at the dock.
Critics found Tammy largely unfunny and depressing, with McCarthy and Sarandon's talents wasted on a meandering script that failed to balance comedy with genuine emotion. While some appreciated moments of heart and Susan Sarandon's performance, most reviewers felt the film was a significant step down from McCarthy's previous work. The consensus was that despite an impressive supporting cast, the film never found its comedic rhythm and suffered from an uneven tone throughout.
