THE BOSS could have been a much more family-friendly, acceptable movie without the foul, lewd elements. Also, the rest of the movie includes strong pro-family, pro-capitalist redemptive values.

For example, the opening has a positive portrayal of a kindly Catholic nun. Especially since the movie includes solid moral, redemptive elements. Sadly, media-wise viewers will find the frequent foul language and some distasteful, lewd comical references to be unacceptable. THE BOSS has a consistently fresh and creative point of view, a well-drawn three-dimensional character in McCarthy’s Michelle, and many belly laughs. More comedy ensues when Michelle convinces Claire and Rachel to start a big business using the tasty chocolate brownies Claire bakes for Rachel’s scout troop. Michelle’s gets a new lease on life bonding with the two females.

Claire lets Michelle live with her and her daughter, Rachel, for awhile. She throws herself on the mercy of her long-suffering assistant, Claire. When she is released several months later, Michelle discovers the federal government has taken all her assets. THE BOSS stars Melissa McCarthy as Michelle Darnell, a hard-nosed businesswoman convicted of insider trading.
