Really Surprised!

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Bosses, who would have them? No one likes being told what to do. It's human nature to not want to be bossed around like a minion whilst the head honcho is making mountains of dollar. So when this comedy presents three different yet similar bosses, you may find one of them to be relatable (or you're lucky enough to have Sutherland's character). Three friends plot the murders of their overbearing bosses. We have a psychopathic master manipulator (Spacey), a sexually aggressive maneater (Aniston) and a moronic cocaine-addict (Farrell). This is a rather dark comedy from director Gordon, tackling the theoretical possibility of murder from three seemingly innocent hard workers. Bateman plays himself in everything. Sudeikis charismatically plays his part and possibly becomes the funniest. Day...well, he just grates on me. The constant high-pitched shouting does become tiresome. However, it's the three employers that really shine, clearly imitating enjoyment and hilarity within their performances. The screenplay, again, reaches for the depths of darkness. There are a few unnecessary misogynistic and racist jokes, but the vast majority of scenes and gags bring plenty of laughs. Including, but not limited to, manipulating an employee to drink scotch at 8:15am or searching for a hitman who turns out to be their "murder consultant". It's all fun and games for this American comedy, which is definitely one of the stronger modern films of its genre. Upholding a clean narrative structure that somewhat dissipates towards its conclusion. The first act impressively sets up each character and their motives, the second act slightly dips into the unimaginative territory and then the final act crumbles completely with plot conveniences and a rushed ending. As if Markowitz could not think of a suitable resolution, so settles with the most uninspiring forgettable conclusion possible. Horrible Bosses may not be as horrible as its title suggests, boasting decent performances and laughs. But loses it entirely in its final act.

I seldom switch off a movie but I gave this one more time than it deserved. There was nothing redeemable or even funny about it. If this is what's considered comedy, then Hollywood's definitely lost its way.Avoid.

Either Jennifer Aniston was still tied to the Faustian contract that forced her to work with Adam Sandler, or she was ridiculously determined to shed her FRIENDS image. Sure, that makes sense. Take the role that made you a millionaire and one of the most popular actresses in America, a household name, a hair and fashion icon, and gave you a decades-long career, and do everything you can to tear that image to shreds.Anyway, Jennifer Aniston's filthy sex-crazed character in Horrible Bosses aside, it's not the worst movie in the world. Parts of it are pretty funny, if you like raunchy comedies. I look at it as the male, much filthier version of 9 to 5. Three unhappy friends plot to "get rid of" their horrible bosses. However, those who saw the original in the theater probably won't like this version; it has the distinct air of being aimed at the under-50 crowd.Kiddy Warning: Obviously, you have control over your own children. However, due to sexual jokes and adult situations, I wouldn't let my kids watch it.

I didn't exactly know the plot when I started watching, I just knew the name and didn't make big assumptions based on it. The biggest reason for me to watch this movie is the incredibly talented cast. I'm especially fond of Charlie Day, Jennifer Aniston, Colin Darrel, Kevin Spacey and Jamie Foxx. The casting is great, everyone's character is exactly right for them, and especially when it comes to comedians and their style of acting in comedic roles.The plot is funny and it's actually so weird how thrilling this movie ended up being. But as to whether or not it's unpredictable... it's a comedy, so typically the writers have chosen always to go into the funniest way possible. Well, as funny as they can imagine. Sometimes it's predictable, sometimes it's not. What you can predict that in comedies everyone is very very dumb even when they are accidentally brilliant. Everything is going wrong until the last possible moment perhaps. So vis-à-vis the plot and the humour, Horrible Bosses is just pretty average typical dark comedy, apart from having somewhat atypical plot. And by somewhat atypical I mean it has definitely been done before, but it's not repeating some movie that already exists, and the same kind of thing isn't being done every year - apart from sequels. What bothered me the most was the annoying way the characters reacted to their friend (played by Charlie Day) being sexually assaulted by his female boss. "Your situation isn't so bad", "I can't really take you seriously right now", like are you f#@4ing kidding me? Apparently it's rare to see men writing comedy and not being really awfully sexist, like can people stop with the idea that men would enjoy being sexually assaulted / raped? So all in all, pretty average for its genre and humour. ... Wow that seems really dark after the last paragraph but that's how it is, I guess. Anyway yeah, obviously there are so many frustrating "jokes" that make you think this movie was made decades ago instead of six years ago, but that's Hollywood for ya.
