Lady Business

I honestly thought that this movie was pretty good.the hate for it is not inderstood.

Incomprehensible mess. Crude and over the top with comedy elements veering more towards horrific than comedic. Choppy pacing. Characters only act as stereotypes. Talented cast gone to waste.

It has it funny moments and it's a great message, but it's not that impressive. Tiffany Haddish and Rose Byrne don't have the chemistry needed to pull of this movie off about two best friends since childhood stating a business. Byrne always seemed out of place in this Haddish vehicle and oddly enough Haddish seemed out of place in her own vechicle. It feels like she's holding back what makes everyone want to see her. It's like Haddish at one instead of eleven. Jennifer Cooledge suffers from the same thing. I did not get the full on Coolledge I was going for when I saw her that she was In The flick. Selma Hayek works as the villain but it's only a workable performance she did not make me laugh. Give it up to Billy Porter who tried to steel the scene when he was in it and in some cases he did. I'll say Like A Boss was worth the effort but I'll also say try to catch it when it's on a streaming service.

Great cast, a director I've enjoyed in the past: what happened here? Flat and uninspired filmmaking, and a lazy comedy.

Is the film supposed to be funny? I did not laugh at all. It is flat, dull and offensive. If the film was trying to recreate some "Mean Girls" type of meanness, then it did not succeed.
