Like a Boss

Cards on the table: I haven't seen this movie and have no plans to ever see it. However, the trailer was so monumentally, skin-peelingly bad it ruined the rest of my day. This score represents my pitiful attempt at revenge.

An okay movie I just wish comedies didn't rely so much on heavy cursing It's not cute or funny in my opinion

Like a Boss is an atrocious movie. The script is tirade of double standards and hypocrisy under the guise of female empowerment. The message that friendship wins at the end of the day is contrary to the plot of the entire movie and undermined by the characters being bad people. Byrne and Haddish seem to be entrenching their positions in the dud-comedy genre. It’s not even entertaining enough to hate, just apathetically sigh as each line of badly written dialogue is recited.

This was funny for about 20 minutes. Then it became shit.

Dull and inane comedy is admittedly far from the worst of its genre; Haddish and Byrne's casting is a blessing and a curse - they are always fun to watch, but it's dispiriting to see them in material so beneath their talents. There are some occasional giggles to be had in individual moments, but without a sensible or reasonable context through which to view the central relationship, the conflict ultimately feels contrived and as a result, the movie never really comes alive.

Like with many comedies, it is pretty funny for the first half hour or so. It then gets bogged into terrible second act formalism and just ties itself up too neatly in the end, sacrificing much humour and relatability to these characters.

Kadınlar üzerine olmamış 1 film. Kapitalizm üzerine göndermeler olsa da, küçük işletmelerin ayakta duramamasının arkadaşlığa vurması çok tezat. Rose Byrne ve Tiffany Haddish kötü uyumu. Salma Hayek'in itici patron karakteri filmi aşağıya çekiyor. Kankalık da bir yere kadar. Filmin sonunda, bir tanıtım da kendilerini tanıtıyorlar. Hallederiz sıkıntı yok. Takma düzelir be kanka.

A lot of people have labeled this film as terrible, and referenced it as one of the worst of the year, and that's honestly some seriously harsh judgments. It's not terrible, it's just average, safe, and uninspired - it basically felt like a lot of modern comedies about female friendships, but it's not specifically bad. I personally liked these women and some of the jokes actually landed rather well with me. Maybe thats just me. Unbiased Score: 68% | Biased Score - 62% | Criticker Prediction: 50%
