Don't waste your time or your money.
9 April 2016 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I love Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Bell, but this movie was terrible. The plot was unfocused, the characters underdeveloped, and most of the the "jokes" crude and poorly timed. I left wondering who the target audience was supposed to be because I cannot picture anyone enjoying this film. With so much talent, it was painful to watch its lukewarm opening disintegrate into vulgar attempts at cheap laughs that never came. The whole thing just made me feel sad...and not in a good way. I hope Melissa McCarthy will continue to work on her writing because she clearly has a great sense of humor, but this film reflects poorly on her talent.
