THE BOSS review by FAT Mike
A titan of industry is sent to prison after she's caught insider trading. When she emerges ready to rebrand herself as America's latest sweetheart, not everyone she screwed over is so quick to forgive and forget.
With Gary Sanchez Productions (operated by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay) I had a glimpse of hope that this film wasn't going to be like other Melissa McCarthy movies like Tammy, The Heat, Identity Thief......I WAS WRONG, The Boss was just like the others.
There were some good, cheap laughs but most of them I didn't care about and the jokes mostly fell flat. The first 5 minutes was the best, the rest of the time I struggled not to turn off the movie.
The cast was better than main star Kristen Bell, Tyler Labine, Kristen Schaal but the one that made me laugh most of all was Peter Dinklage but not even he could save this movie.
The Boss tries too hard to be funny and is a forgettable movie (thank god). I hope one day we will get a good new Melissa McCarthy because I'd rather get a prostate exam from Captain Hook than watch another mediocre Melissa McCarthy movie. Cheers and remember I watch bad movies so you don't have too
