Michelle Darnell (Melissa McCarthy) was rejected by adoptive parents many times and learned to not rely on families. She becomes a hard-nosed successful businesswoman. Darnell gets 5 months for insider trader after being outed by bitter ex Renault (Peter Dinklage). Her long-suffering assistant Claire Rawlings (Kristen Bell) finally quits. When she gets out of prison, she has nobody and nowhere to stay. She guilts Claire's daughter Rachel for a place to crash. She goes to Rachel's Dandelion meeting and decides to start the competing Darnell's Darlings to sell Claire's brownies. She convinces Claire to date Mike Beals (Tyler Labine) and quit her job under bad boss Dana Dandridge (Cecily Strong).

Some of the jokes work well and some others are awkwardly bad. There are plenty of stupid pratfalls that aren't smart enough. Melissa needs to trim back those bad jokes that aren't working. She and husband Ben Falcone need help to sharpen up their material. The basic premise has good bones. They have the lovely Kristen Bell. The little girls are cute and the girl fight is hilarious. Melissa and Ben have a tendency to inject bad low-grade comedy in all the wrong places. This is better than some of their other comedies and this could have worked much better than this.

Melissa McCarthy uses her same vulgar R rated sex jokes and innuendo's in The Boss. It starts off entertaining and has it's share of really funny moments throughout. Annie Mumolo; co-writer of Bridesmaid's co-stars in this movie as Melissa's nemesis. Annie also had a cameo in Bridesmaids on the airplane sitting beside Kristen Wiig. Nice to see her get a bigger role. I wanted to give the movie 4 stars but the last 20 minutes really are truly ridiculous and not even funny. I guess that's the trick of comedy it's either really good or fails epically, given the movie as a whole and more positive moments, I can forgive the silly ending. I still think Identity Thief, Spy and Bridesmaids are probably her 3 best comedies to date. The movie is worth a watch if you are a fan of Melissa McCarthy's humor. If you don't normally like her humor, this will offer you nothing.

Im reading the reviews here and what I gathered was that people who gave this movie 1 / 2 / 3 are somehow disturbed with the fact that it is done by a married couple, it is starred by a full figured woman who is married to the director and that it has majority of women. When men slap and kick each other in the movies nobody bats an eye. I believe that if the child gets in the movie business the parents are quite well aware of the pros and cons and they study the lines with their kids so its not Melissa's fault there. Shes a writer not a priest. There is a "just for gags" program on TV. Its stupid as hell but it makes people laugh. It's a comedy for goodness sake not a tfue story. As for the reviewer who told us to watch his review on YouTube... I wouldn't watch it even if you can pay me. Its not possible to sit for more than an hour in the movie and give it 1. Its not an ebay product. You only give it a 1 if you stayed for 5 minutes and felt it wasnt for you. This is a great comedy. Well done. Having said that... there were few mistakes like when Michelle told Claire that she had a cellmate for the last six months when really she was arrested for 5 months.

What's with these critics who tell people not to watch certain movies? What the hell is that? Make your own conclusions yes... but dont tell people not to watch the movie just because you hated it. That's what shows that it goes deeper than the movie. I call that hating...

'THE BOSS': Three and a Half Stars (Out of Five)

Slapstick comedy flick, re-teaming actress Melissa McCarthy with writer/director Ben Falcone (her husband); the two previously performed the same duties on the 2014 hit comedy flick 'TAMMY'. McCarthy stars in the movie, and she also co-wrote the script; with Falcone and (actor turned first time screenwriter) Steve Mallory (who also played a small part in 'TAMMY'). The film costars Kristen Bell, Ella Anderson, Peter Dinklage, Tyler Labine and Kathy Bates (who also costarred in 'TAMMY'). It tells the story of a very successful businesswoman, named Michelle Darnell, who's imprisoned for insider trading, that tries to make a comeback by selling delicious brownies. Michelle Darnell is based on a character McCarthy previously created for the comedy troupe 'Groundlings'. The movie performed well at the Box Office (like all of McCarthy's films), but it also did poorly with critics (like almost all of McCarthy's movies). I liked it (like most of McCarthy's films).

Michelle Darnell (McCarthy) was an extremely rich and powerful businesswoman; and then she was busted for insider trading. When she gets out of prison, 5 months later, none of her old business associates want anything to do with her anymore. Only Michelle's former dedicated assistant, Claire (Bell), will help her out. Claire lets Michelle stay with her, and her daughter Rachel (Anderson). At first the ex-con is extremely annoying, but then she learns to bond with Claire and Rachel; and when she learns how good Claire's home cooked brownies are, she gets an obsessive new business idea.

I think McCarthy is a very talented comedic performer, and writer, and this character is brilliant. So the movie is definitely funny. It's a little hit-and-miss, but it's more hit than miss (I think). It's not hilarious, or an exceptionally well made film; but if your'e looking for laughs, it should deliver. Unless you're just not a fan of Melissa McCarthy, or her style of comedy (everyone has their own tastes), than this film probably isn't for you.

'The Boss' is A Fun Comedy, that's pretty watchable, especially if you're a Melissa McCarthy fan. Its definitely flawed, but some of the jokes are right on.

'The Boss' Synopsis: 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.

'The Boss' isn't clever, but what it is, is a lighthearted comedy. Sure, its verbose & not all is fun here, but McCarthy's spirited performance makes a lot of it work. Ben Falcone, McCarthy & Steve Mallory's Screenplay succeeds in making you laugh at times, but a funnier approach wouldn't have hurt. Ben Falcone's Direction, on the other-hand, is just about okay. Cinematography & Editing, too, are ordinary.

Performance-Wise: McCarthy is the life of the show. She's first-rate! Kristen Bell is endearing. Ella Anderson is cute. Peter Dinklage is hilariously over-the-top. Kathy Bates is adequate.

On the whole, 'The Boss' isn't without its share of laughs.
