Emma Thompson is the hard arse late night television host who is struggling in the ratings and is losing approval from her new boss, in comes Mindy Kaling to add a female voice to the all male writing staff. Somehow when I saw the press on this I thought it was aimed as a comedic movie, but I found it mostly unfunny and something was missing for me. I wanted a touch of funny or magic but instead found it a bit flat, and devoid of any real chemistry which is a shame, as I usually enjoy watching both female leads. 3/5
