UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
barrowinnovations I don't like to write long reviews analyzing a movie, either it works for me or it doesn't, basically. I busted out laughing several times during this movie, it worked for me. The boob scene was hysterical. Sure, some parts are silly and crude, but it's lighthearted and ends well like movies should. I only wrote a review because of the amount of 1 star reviews ripping it. Lighten up Francises.
Caglatureray Rally smooth and easygoing and funny. Really liked this one !
Michael Ledo Michelle Darnell (Melissa McCarthy) who never knew family becomes a major CEO who possess the worst qualities of Suze Orman and Donald Trump combined. As art imitates life, she does a stint in prison for insider trading and loses her empire, forced to start over. Being not liked by everyone, (Be nice to people on the way up...) she finds a home with a former employee (Kristen Bell) who makes great brownies. Renault (Peter Dinklage) is a former vindictive lover who has it in for her.The theme of the film is about friends as families, as Michelle undergoes a transformation. The film is cliche and hack in writing, although funny in some parts thanks to the delivery ability of Melissa McCarthy. Many scenes simply didn't work that could have worked such as the brownie melee, the martial arts fight, and the boob check scene that lasted pointlessly too long.This is not as good as "Spy" and certainly not as good as "The Heat," but better than "Tammy."Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity. Adult talk.
