About this movie

Melissa McCarthy (Bridesmaids, The Heat) stars as Michelle Darnell, a titan of industry who is sent to prison for insider trading. After doing her time, Michelle emerges, ready to rebrand herself as America's latest sweetheart, but not everyone she steamrolled is so quick to forgive and forget. With nowhere to go and no one to scam, Michelle is forced to move in with former assistant Claire (Kristen Bell - Frozen, Showtime's House of Lies) and her young daughter, Rachel. Now at her lowest point, Michelle wastes no time in devising a winner-take-all plan to rebuild her empire. Can she reclaim her status as the No. 1 screwer, or will the love of one family screw her for good? (Original Title - The Boss) - 2016 Universal Studios. All Rights Reserved.

Ratings and reviews

Can't say it is a total garbage, but it's very close. Go watch something else. Whatever you pick will be better than this.

This film is not as funny as I thought it would be. Better off watching Melissa McCarthy in The Heat or Spy as she is so funny in these films.

I was really excited to see this at the cinema after all the hype about it, but ended up getting too busy to have time to watch it, so when it came out on here I was really happy! Turns out it's just a massive pile of crap. Great.
