I am not a movie reviewer and I don't pretend to be. I will share my thoughts on a movie like I do with the books I read. If you are looking for a full in depth article than I will only disappoint you. However, if you want to know my honest thoughts then keep reading. Feel free to leave your own thoughts (no spoilers) in the comments.

When her husband suddenly dumps her, longtime dedicated housewife Deanna (Melissa McCarthy) turns regret into re-set by going back to college…landing in the same class and school as her daughter, who’s not entirely sold on the idea. Plunging headlong into the campus experience, the increasingly outspoken Deanna - now Dee Rock- embraces freedom, fun and frat boys on her own terms, finding her true self in a senior year no one ever expected. - Amazon UK.
Melissa
McCarthy is possibly one of my favourite actresses. She is always
hilarious. Her movies are always great for a good laugh. Is Life of
the Party one of her best movies? No, it’s not. It’s a little
predictable, some of it is a flat but it is still a really good funny
movie that can help you forget how bloody stressful life is. it’s
an escape and that’s what I needed.
Shocked
when her husband decides he wants a divorce, Deanna decides it’s
time to go back to college and finish her last year after dropping
out the first time. Deanna enrolls in the same college as her
daughter and not only does she really embrace college life, she makes
friends, finds a toy boy and really finds herself after 20 years of
being a stay at home mother.
As I said this is not Melissa’s best work. Some of the jokes fall flat
and you know exactly what’s going to happen. But that didn’t stop
me
enjoying it. Right now I have been going through some personal stuff
and just needed an escape movie and Melissa’s movies are always a
go to for me. Certain parts had me actually buckled with laughter. To
the point I was snorting LOL.
I
found some of the characters
a little Meh if I am honest. You have the typical mean girls, the
weird loner and the cute boy. Although, I won’t lie the younger
cute boy? Yeah it was cliché but a part of me was like “You go
girl!!!” Because he is bloody gorgeous. And the whole situation was
just comedy gold.
If
you are a fan of Melissa McCarthy then you need to watch it. Don’t
go into it expecting too much. Take it for what it is. A silly comedy
you can escape into for a while. I enjoyed it. And have got a new
favourite word. Vagoogle. Once you see the movie you’ll get it.
