About this movie

Nothing extraordinary ever happens to Carol Peters (played by Melissa McCarthy), so when she starts getting snarky backtalk from her TV, phone and microwave, she thinks she’s being punked. Or losing her mind. In fact, the world’s first superintelligence (voiced by James Corden) has chosen to study and observe Carol’s attempt to romantically reconcile with her former boyfriend (played by Bobby Cannavale) to better understand the human condition. Soon, the all-powerful entity takes over her life...with ominous plans to possibly take over the world. Now, Carol is potentially humanity’s last chance before this AI-with-an-attitude decides to pull the plug.

Ratings and reviews

This is my film of the year so far. I loved the concept, the pace, the narrative and the script. There are long dialogues that really worked for me - and I’m a massive Melissa fan anyway - but not so much James. But now I like him even more than when he came on the scene with Gavin and Stacey.

Not very good at all was very disappointing

Erase James Gorden and it would of been a good movie lol
