Not the life of any party


Life of the Party (2018)

Directed by Ben Falcone this film stars Melissa McCarthy, Molly Gordon, Gillian Jacobs and Maya Rudolph. On finding out her husband is divorcing her a middle aged woman returns to college to finish her degree at the same time her daughter is in her final year there.

There is some promise to the premise of this film but it never capitalises on the potential it has. The script stumbles through some predictable beats with out being especially funny or having much to say. At times the film is a little cringe heavy for my taste as well.

2/5
