Genre: Comedy
Starring: Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, Charlie Day, Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Spacey, Jamie Foxx, Colin Farrell
"Horrible Bosses" is a hilarious comedy with a surprisingly deep ensemble cast. Nick (Jsaon Bateman), Kurt (Jason Sudeikis) and Dale (Charlie Day) are three friends who share a similar trait -- they all hate their bosses. In fact, their bosses generate so much spite that the trio decide to kill them. Unfortunately, planning a successful murder is much harder than it looks.
With Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Spacey and Colin Farrell reprising the roles as the three evil antagonists, "Horrible Bosses" is incredibly funny. Tack on Jamie Foxx as a "murder consultant" and we may be looking at the funniest movie of the summer. At the very least, its the most original comedy of the summer.
In fact, as good as the performances from Bateman, Sudeikis and Day were, the true standout roles were those of Aniston, Spacey and Farrell. Their characters are some extreme and the three totally take advantage of the fun of the roles.
If you have 90 minutes to kill, head down to the Tango Theatres and catch "Horrible Bosses" today.
3.5 out of 5 stars.
