Watched it last night at home on BluRay and it was spectacularly funny.  That Melissa McCarthy is simply unreal, like this gruff female Ricky Gervais. Everything she did was funny, which makes me want to check out that TV sitcom she just won an Emmy for.  

Also loved Rose Byrne as the baddie and the always fabulous Kristen Wiig, who co-wrote and co-produced with an old Groundlings pal for Judd Apatow.

Raunchy enough to deserve the R rating, I laughed out loud throughout and just about lost it during the infamous dress-shopping scene.
