The Boss Baby Audience Reviews

More Review
Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
ashsmith-108-818828 My 1 and 3 year olds love this movie! It's very witty and even entertaining for my husband and I! Highly recommend!
Neil Welch Tim's new baby brother has a secret: to all intents and purposes, he is an adult in a baby's body, tasked with foiling a dastardly plan to divert the love for babies into a love for puppies. But first of all, there is a battle for supremacy between Tim and this new arrival.This film is very silly. It also has a fairly original story. And the trailer doesn't give you the whole story: the latter half isn't spoiled at all.It is interesting to consider the audience here. Yes, it is a film for kids, but it also has a great deal which will go way above kids' heads (the TV trailer used in the UK contains the line "Cookies are for closers" - what on earth does that mean to a child?). So there is broad appeal.Because it is funny but also interesting, with some moderate suspense. Much of the humour comes from what is essentially an adult in a baby's body (although the film does try - and succeeds - in having its cake and eating, with the Boss Baby (brilliantly voiced by Alex Baldwin) being credible as both baby and Boss.The characters and settings are graphically simple, but that's quite a good thing. The animation is - as expected - first rate, and the "play" sequences add some welcome surrealism and jazzy design.As a Beatles fan, it was nice to see "Blackbird" playing an important part.This film was fun.

Johnny H. Boss Baby is an inherently cynical film by nature; it's a film that has no real purpose to exist other than to simply serve itself as a product for kids to consume. It's got no 'oh-my-god-that's-genius' moments or any real characterization: it's a montage of non-coherent randomness that's got all the ADD that made Minions a hit with late-millennial kids in the first place. DreamWorks has made some pretty damn good animated films over the years: Shrek 1 & 2, Kung-Fu Panda, How to Train Your Dragon 1 & 2, those are all REALLY solid films. Where the hell does Boss Baby fit into that studio-spectrum? It's very near rock-bottom for the studio, right next to Shark Tale. It's bad.The premise sucks: babies in a 'cute-war' with puppies (puppies are way for me), the animation is actually pretty good, but everything outside of it and Alec Baldwin is pretty sub-par; the direction is clueless in moderating its MANY conflicting styles, and it's just fodder to be meme'd to oblivion on YouTube. It's a film with no purpose other than wasting kids' time.Don't watch this animated fart. This baby gets 1.5/5 stars.
