LIFE OF THE PARTY

I thought this was somewhat entertaining. Certainly not her better work but leagues ahead of Tammy. A bit better than Identity Thief. Julie Bowen was ridiculous in this. Completely unfunny. Walsh was bleh. Gillian Jacobs who I recognized from those diet coke ads they run during movie preshows was eh. McCarthy is the clear best thing about this film as usual. There was one insane sequence at a classroom presentation that practically makes the film worth watching just for that. It had me dying. There were a few other good comedy moments throughout especially a couple moments at different parties she attends. Overall, it's mostly unmemorable but good as a once over.

Grade - B

Oh, thank fuck that's over. Embarrassingly unfunny, cringe-worthy load of crap, with the only passable comedy coming from Maya Rudolph. It is impossible that a Luke Benward would in any way find a Melissa McCarthy attractive. It is more likely that I break the 100m world record. Absolutely insane that Falcone thought that was the right way to go. And what the fuck is wrong with Christina Aguilera's face? She looks a few slices away from being Jocelyn Wildenstein.
