GIVE LIFE THE OLD COLLEGE TRY.
When her husband announces that he wants a divorce, Deanna Miles (Melissa McCarthy) decides to go back to college, becoming her daughterās (Molly Gordon) classmateā¦Ā Another collaboration between McCarthy and her husband Ben Falcone that never takes off. This one wants to be a nice, positive comedy about a middle-aged woman finding herself. Lots of predictable jokes about age differences. Enthusiastically performed by McCarthy, but rarely funny and thereās no real conflict; the film often feels aimless.
