WrathOfHan Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 This looks like the most boring comedy imaginable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAM! Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 It has the potential for its target audience to find some of the jokes funny, but beyond that, it's gonna struggle to persuade other filmgoers to see it. Unless I missed her, they didn't even have Shannon Purser in the trailer. Missed opportunity to advertise to the hardcore Stranger Things fans that would recognize her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I wish McCarthy would stop collaborating with her husband on movies cause they haven't turned out well. Tammy was trash and The Boss was only intermittently funny. I'll see this but it doesn't look like it'll be a massive improvement from those efforts either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Yeh I absolutely love Melissa McCarthy but her previous films with her husband, Tammy and The Boss were awful. This has a better trailer than those two though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75Live Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 yeah another unfunny McCarthy movie. She is more miss than hit with me and this looks like another miss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 She really squandered a lot of goodwill by continuing to prop up her unfunny husband. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenG Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Why is she still doing comedies with him? I am baffled. Their last two joints were reviled by critics and did progressively less money. She should go back to Feig. Even Ghostbusters got solid reviews (even if the box office was tepid for the kind of film it was and the expectations the studio had) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Crazy thought, if you get to work with the love of your life making something yourselves, when you're both in control of what you're working on, you enjoy it and you make money from it... why would you stop? Good for her, I say. Even if it sucks for us people who actually consume the end product. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for her, I say. Even if it sucks for us people who actually consume the end product. I totally get that. However, would continued critical turds that also post diminishing returns not impact her A-list status, and thus, negatively affect her future clout (salary, demand for roles, industry cachet)? Who knows? I wish her the best because I really think she is a talented funnylady. Edited February 7, 2018 by StevenG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
