Melissa McCarthy/Bobby Cannavale/Wild Belle

McCarthy is a very talented comedic performer!

The Boss was laugh out loud hilarious, but also heartfelt.

The Boss

&apos;THE BOSS&apos;: 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 &apos;TAMMY&apos;. 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 &apos;TAMMY&apos;). The film costars Kristen Bell, Ella Anderson, Peter Dinklage, Tyler Labine and Kathy Bates (who also costarred in &apos;TAMMY&apos;). It tells the story of a very successful businesswoman, named Michelle Darnell, who&apos;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 &apos;Groundlings&apos;. The movie performed well at the Box Office (like all of McCarthy&apos;s films), but it also did poorly with critics (like almost all of McCarthy&apos;s movies). I liked it (like most of McCarthy&apos;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&apos;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&apos;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&apos;s a little hit-and-miss, but it&apos;s more hit than miss (I think). It&apos;s not hilarious, or an exceptionally well made film; but if your&apos;e looking for laughs, it should deliver. Unless you&apos;re just not a fan of Melissa McCarthy, or her style of comedy (everyone has their own tastes), than this film probably isn&apos;t for you.
