The Boss

#1 Post by prettyxcool » Wed Jun 01, 2016 2:24 pm

Saw this at Vue West End last night, a VIP screening with just free alcohol.

Unfortunately, Melissa McCarthy was too much in your face, and it got on my nerves, and I did not find it all that funny either. I actually looked at my watch half way through, thinking when will this end! Perhaps, if she was not in it, it may have been much better! :-) 5/10

dreadful film I hated everything about it, especially MM and her awful clothes.What was up with the no neck look?

Why on earth did Peter Dinkladge do this film? He's won awards FFS.

2/10 for the free alcohol and the fact that it was only 90 mins long
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

Yeah, that bugged me too, it's to hide her double chin?

It was as bad as I expected - but that's what tends to happen when Melissa McCarthy is in films

It had some funny moments but I didn't enjoy this as much as Bridesmaids or Spy. I agree with the others - it was a little too over the top in some places.
