Thunder Force

« The movie comes to life any time the actors are given space to mess around. It's just not enough to hold the whole thing together. »

« Even a spoof needs stronger plotting and villains, if only to provide a place to hang the jokes. »

« Melissa McCarthy gets more chuckles than laughs in a comedy that sticks too close to her comfort zone. »

« Octavia Spencer stars alongside McCarthy in the new superhero spoof streaming on Netflix. »

« The jokes in Thunder Force are thin, the spoof of superheroics wan, but it's not every day you see crustacean perversity. »

« I don't doubt for a second that McCarthy and Falcone love working together and that everyone involved had a great time making Thunder Force. »

« It takes forever to actually get going... and then when it does finally go fishing for a plot it winds up reeling in a boot. »

« En plus de manquer d'imagination, la mise en scène s'avère complaisante, ce qui permet à McCarthy de cabotiner outrageusement. Seul élément plutôt réussi: un emploi assez ludique des effets spéciaux. »
