I found her raw humor in Bridesmaids and The Heat to be extremely entertaining. But this movie, which presents her as a businesswoman in the mold of Martha Stewart, does her a disservice.

What set McCarthy apart in the movies where she shines is that she's the one being crass and crude, surrounded by more normal people who make her stand out. In this movie, everyone seems to be trying to be just as crass and crude, if not more so, including the numerous girls playing Girl-Scout-like cookie sellers who get into a street brawl over cookie-selling territory.

Despite that, the movie is doing well in the box office. It's hard to imagine the audiences for this.

Melissa is one of the best comedic actors right now and she does it again with this film. Big slapstick moments and smaller verbal jabs had me crying with laughter. There are good laughs to be found within "The Boss", however the plot lacks what it truly needs to bring out the most laughs from Melissa McCarthy. Melissa McCarthy still very talented in this role. There were some funny scenes and some silly scenes, but it doesn't fully deliver on what it could be. LeZee Jul 24, Use on opportunity, build an empire and be the boss!

The Boss review – unfunny adventures in capitalism with Melissa McCarthy

I always liked Melissa McCarthy films when others said they were very bad, but this time it is totally different. I won't blame her, she always gives her one hundred per cent and so for this film. But it was the terrible script that let Use on opportunity, build an empire and be the boss! But it was the terrible script that let her down. Actually, it is a watchable film, because of her, but without her completely unimaginable.

The trailer looked much better than the film. It is a comedy, but the laughs are too far, not even a little smile in your face easy to obtain. So it seems there are plenty of negatives about it than the good. I watched it to prove the people are wrong about it, but in the end I was wrong. This is the second time the director and McCarthy together for a film who are the real life couple.

But I liked 'Tammy' better, not this one and there will be one more film that I hope they would come up with much more interesting than these two. She is not a solo type star, her films are always the multistarrer. So whenever I hear about her new films, I get curious about her new partner.

The Boss Movie

Kristen Bell was not bad, even Peter Dinklage have given a nice performance. So The casting was good, but they all did not get the good script or the role. I did not enjoy it means not that I won't recommend it. It did not work for me, but it might to you, so I advise be carefully while choosing it. KaptenVideo Dec 8, Talky but lifeless and charmless "comedy" about self-made business mogul Melissa McCarthy who goes to jail for insider trading and then bounces back, creating a cookie empire with former employee Kristen Bell.

The best that can be said about this misfire is that they try different Talky but lifeless and charmless "comedy" about self-made business mogul Melissa McCarthy who goes to jail for insider trading and then bounces back, creating a cookie empire with former employee Kristen Bell. The best that can be said about this misfire is that they try different things — buddy comedy, a colorful person story, inspirational girl power story with swearing, later even some rom-com and action.

You may laugh a couple of times but the result really is a weak, talky series of sketches that never pay off, or should not continue for minutes What's worse, the characters are super bland even Peter Dinklage and Kathy Bates are wasted and the central heroine is as soulless and kind of zombified as the whole experience feels.

Still not convinced that Melissa McCarthy can carry a movie.
