When it comes to lows, nothing comes close to Cook Off!, a little-seen 2017 mockumentary currently sitting at a paltry 14 percent on RT. Still, with just seven reviews panning it, the film is unlikely to even be on most fans' radars. More damning is Identity Thief, in which McCarthy stars alongside fellow comedy heavyweight Jason Bateman.

The 2013 comedy caper is at 19 percent on RT, with Buzzfeed News' Roxane Gay noting, "There's something to offend everyone in Identity Thief: racist jokes, gay jokes, the word 'vagina' wielded as an insult."  Elsewhere, in Grantland, Wesley Morris admits, "You don't care enough about these people to want to see them come out on top."  

Still, critics commended McCarthy for her commitment to the material, though The Guardian's Peter Bradshaw notes, "It is reliant on McCarthy's comedy chops and her ability to deliver improv-type character material, but almost every single one of her scenes looks like an outtake."
