Mini Review - Life of the Party

Life of the Party (out May 10) is a comedy about a middle-aged mum (Melissa McCarthy) who heads back to college after a 20+ year absence to complete her degree. There's one great scene (at a restaurant) but aside from that, the jokes fall flat and the story is muddled. Grade: C.
