This painfully unfunny comedy, courtesy of Miguel Arteta, is easily the worst film of the decade so far. Tiffany Haddish and Rose Byrne are wasted as Bffs who run a small, local cosmetics company. Enter Claire Luna (Salma Hayek, so bad), a giant in the industry who offers to cover their huge debts, as long as they agree to sell a big share of their business. Surprise: Luna is an evil mastermind with an agenda of her own. You can see everything coming a mile away, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing if the movie is actually entertaining. But “Like a Boss” has nothing going for it, from the jokes that constantly fall flat to the horrible performances. I honestly can’t remember the last time I witnessed a comedy as bad as this one. All the actresses (and especially Hayek) deserve a better vehicle than this turd. You’ve been warned: avoid this film like the plague.
