Leave your thoughts about The Boss.
| Entertainment WeeklyLeah GreenblattA few moments are fantastically bonkers, but granting director duties to McCarthy’s husband, Ben Falcone, feels more like an act of love than wisdom. |
| ABC Radio BrisbaneMatthew ToomeyThe writers, including McCarthy, have failed to create conflict or tension that feels credible. |
| Las Vegas Review-JournalChristopher LawrenceThe Boss feels less like it came from a fully realized script than from a collection of ideas from a sketch-comedy journal. |
| AARP Movies for GrownupsBill NewcottAs fun as The Boss is, it would be nice to see (McCarthy) focus on movies with real scripts, populated by real people, tackling real life. Blending her gifts for the comic and the dramatic, McCarthy really could be the Boss. |
| BeliefnetNell MinowA character can be hilariously obnoxious or endearing but not both, even when played by the irresistible McCarthy. |
| Film School RejectsChristopher CampbellThe Boss can be a very flawed movie while still being hilarious. |
| AV ClubJesse HassengerThe Boss, without quite reaching the heights of McCarthy’s work with Paul Feig, establishes its star as sort of a comic auteur — which is not the same as repeating herself. |
| The Film StageDan SchindelIf one of the '90s Adam Sandler movies had a weird May-December romance with a '00s Apatow production, the ungainly, misshapen, sterile hybrid that is The Boss might result. |
| Film Journal InternationalKevin LallyMelissa McCarthy is fun (to a degree) as a self-absorbed business tycoon who loses everything, but the script she and her director husband devised is a shambles. |
| Us WeeklyMara ReinsteinThe gifted Melissa McCarthy has spent the bulk of her post-Bridesmaids career elevating so-so material. Add this raunchy comedy to the pile of mediocrity. |
