It’s nice to see Melissa McCarthy doing a serious role and really acting after some really bad movies. Her and Richard E. Grant had great chemistry. They are a lot of fun together. Those two make this worth watching. Otherwise the movie is pretty straightforward.

Lee Israel is not a very nice person... and yet she is kinda sympathetic. I feel similarly about the movie. It’s not a very good film, and yet you kinda spend a good time watching it.

Who would have thought that Melissa McCarthy is actually a good actress when she doesn’t play the pseudo funny roles. Interesting story and well made movie.

I guess I'm in the minority on this one. Good acting but slow, boring, sad story that did nothing to draw me in.

Mad props to Melissa McCarthy for turning it around with this after _Happytime Murders_ and _Life of the Party_. Actually after basically every single thing I've seen her in up until this point. I honestly can't think of a single role I've liked her in. Until Lee Israel of course, because as her, in More

Lee Israel was selfish, cold, sad, and disreputable. She was also really fun to know. Sookie nails this one.
