He takes a character that, under anyone else, would've come across as lame and he makes it the most entertaining character in the entire film. This guy has great comedic timing and delivery and I don't think it's a side that a lot of fans of his Game of Thrones work, which is tremendous, ever really get to see.

And another thing, Peter Dinklage is so fucking great at everything he does. About 95% of them come from Peter Dinklage's character. Which is kind of a shame, because there's some legitimately really funny moments in this film. With that said, while The Boss is a definite improvement over Tammy, it's still not what I would call a good movie. And this is coming from someone who thinks that Melissa McCarthy is supremely talented and the hate that is directed her way is unfairly directed at her weight as opposed to her actual talents as a comedienne and whether she has great timing and delivery (she does). When I think back to Tammy, I think about how bad that movie actually was. You know, at least this is better than Tammy, Melissa McCarthy's previous movie that she co-wrote with her husband (who also directed).
