Reviewer Rating Review
Bryan Lienesch69 - We've seen recent McCarthy comedies with varying levels of success. This one is more 'Tammy' than it is 'Spy'.
Paul's Trip To The Movies61(full review)
Minnesota Man60 - Funnier than it should be but not as good as it could be.

Sober Film Critic James Brown52 - The Boss has one redeeming quality, and her name is Melissa McCarthy. The popular comedian delivers the goods from her end with a solid, charismatic performance befitting the film's title. That being said, everything else around her is a hot mess.
