Linda Kaye

I wanted to like it. Great cast and acting. However, the script is largely shallow, obvious, too easy and predictable. The first half of the movie is yelling , yelling and more F-bomb yelling.. The movie presents as a cheerful family comedy but the loaded language and violent images called up by ,especially Melissa McCarthy, are not helpful to problem solving. Mr. Apatow has a "blind spot" regarding the deleterious affects of violent language disguised as simple family "venting" . Movies can elevate society - this is a half-hearted wishy-washy effort in that vein - aimed primarily at white, middle-class Americans .

whoever Angus Stewart is - a reviewer - is not amusing at all.
