VIDEO: Melissa McCarthy Called “Hippo,” “Tractor-Sized” by Movie Critic Rex Reed

Melissa McCarthy and Jason Batemen star in the new comedy, Identity Thief, hitting theaters this weekend, and unfortunately the comedy aspect is being overshadowed by an obnoxious review. Film critic Rex Reed absolutely ripped apart Melissa in his review in the New York Observer, calling her “tractor-sized,” a “screeching, humongous creep,” and “a gimmick comedian who has devoted her short career to being obese and obnoxious with equal success.” Then Reed tops it off by calling Melissa a “female hippo.” It’s one thing to insult the movie, but attacking Melissa for her size is just wrong!
