    Melissa at her Best

    “I don’t need anyone. I’m going straight to the top." Michelle Darnell (McCarthy) has had a hard life. Living in and out of orphanages growing up hardened her and made her the woman she is today; one of the richest and most powerful women in the world, and former prison inmate. When she is released she has nothing and no one to turn to, except her former assistant Claire (Bell). Willing to accept her in for a few days but after Michelle takes Claire’s daughter to her Girl Scout meeting everything changes. After watching the last few McCarthy movies I have said that she only has a few movies left before her humor starts to get played out. After watching this one I realize that I am wrong. She is as hilarious as ever in this one and is one of her best movies she has ever made. She really lets loose in this movie and says and does things that are different then her usual unsure of herself characters, and it works. There is something about her that is just so likeable that even when she plays a character like this you can’t help but laugh with, and not at. Overall, one of the funniest and smartest comedies I have seen in a while. I laughed out loud many many times watching this, and I watched by myself. McCarthy is a comic genius and I can’t wait till her next movie. Watch this today, unless you offend easy. I easily give this an A…a very very hilarious A.

    FUNNY MOVIE

    Melissa McCarthy never truly disappoints and I laughed a lot during this movie. Some scene were a bit much when it involved kids but it wasn't to the point that it was vulgar. The scene where the little brownie troops were fighting was absolutely hilarious. Melissa can be serious and she can be funny. Her character evolved and realized that there was more to life than money. The money was taking place of how she was always brought back to the orphanage when families would attempt to adopt her. Kathy Bates plays as her mentor that teaches her to be ruthless and make money. Kirsten Bell is her assistant while she was a millionaire making millions! Then she ends up in prison and once she gets out Melissa's character moves in with Kirsten. It is a storyline older than the times but never gets old when it ends well.

    We always enjoy Melissa McCarthy's films and I'm happy to say, this one kept us laughing throughout. You have to be a fan of her dark comedic style, otherwise this will just seem crass and uninspired. But if you like your comedy with a dash of spice, then this should fit the bill nicely. Not recommended for folks looking for a comedy that's endearing or warm hearted...you won't find any of that here! Watch the trailer and read some other reviews before you make this purchase if you're new to her work, but if you're a fan, then by all means add this to your collection today. Great looking Blu-ray and a nice slipcover with colors that pop!

    I enjoyed watching this movie. The actors did a great job dealing with different situations. I liked the storyline. It was funny and kept my attention as the movie progressed. I bought after I watched the trailer and decided to add it to my movie and ultra violet collection. I recommend it to anyone that is interested in a funny and active movie to watch.

    Worth a Look, Many Laughs

    If you're a fan of Melissa McCarthy, you won't be disappointed by THE BOSS. But, you won't say "Wow, what a daring new direction from McCarthy. I would have never pictured her in such a role." Be sure to take a look at the bonus features to see an early performance of this character from her stand up days in the mid-00's.

    This was a good comedy movie and I feel like it will likely grow on me over time. Watchable movie, McCarthy is her normal ragey/relatable/harsh/soft combo self. Overall decent film.

    Melissa McCarthy is only a little funny in this movie. this is not my wholehearted recommendation and in retrospect I should've waited until the price was cheaper before buying this movie. It showed well on my large screen though and the graphics were excellent.

    My family had a great time together laughing at Melissa McCarthy acting crazy in this movie. Its not a classic like Bridesmaid or Spy but its better than Tammy. If you like Melissa you will like this movie.

    Fun and funny. Didn't care for the girl riot scene but Will Ferrel produced it so I guess it's a given. Felt like the riot scene out of Ron Burgundy. Otherwise, Melissa McCarthy delivers as usual. Her fans won't be disappointed.

    Bought this for movie night. Quality of DVD is good. Movie is ok. Not for kids but ok for adults if not bothered by a lot of profanity. Not one of Melissa McCarthy s best films.

    This movie is funny and shows McCarthy's strengths. It is a little over the top and a little more "adult" than I was expecting. But it was definitely a fun way to spend an evening.

    The Boss is much funnier than the previews let on. Melissa McCarthy is is top form in this role. A comedy with heart and some over the top laughs. I completely enjoyed this movie.

    We're Melissa McCarthy fans. Her language is pretty rough, but she is always doing something in her movie to keep it from being boring. Very funny if you can handle her cursing.

    Huge Melissa McCarthy fan. I buy ALL of her movies. This is probably the worst one in my opinion and I probably won't watch it again but I need it for my collection

    I was wondering why this movie didn't have much exposure after it was released. It was what I thought it would be "but" I wasn't totally disappointed. It was funny.

    Not for all ages but it does have its family moments and how helping others can show kids that its not always about them
