Horrible Bosses (US) - Funny Flick


Horrible Bosses 
Synopsis: 
The movie started of with 3 friends - Nick, Dale and Kurt working in 3 individual workplace. Nick Hendricks (Jason Bateman) hates his boss, mostly because he's expected to work from before sunrise to after sunset and his boss, Mr. Dave Harken (Kevin Spacey), calls him out for being 2 minutes late and blackmails him so he can't quit. Also, his boss bypass his promotion to Senior VP position and absorb the position himself, making Nick furious. Dale Arbus (Charlie Day) hates his boss, Dr. Julia Harris (Jeniffer Aniston) , because she makes many unwelcome sexual advances especially when he is already engaged. But Dale is unable to quit his job because he has been listed as child offenders for peeing in the children's playground at night time. Kurt Buckman (Jason Sudeikis) actually likes his job and his boss but hates his boss's son Bobby Pellit (Colin Farrel). When his boss dies of an heart attack, Bobby takes over the job and makes Kurt's life miserable by asking him to terminate his dad's employees especially on fat people and disable people. During the moment of depress and a night's out, Nick, Dale and Kurt jokingly discuss on killing their bosses, and before they know it, they've hired a murder consultant, MF Jones to help them pull off the three deeds.
Review:
The movie has its hilarious moments with some great one-line-jokes and good wacky acting. I think that the bosses has their moments especially Jennifer Aniston who has done a great acting portraying as a sex-addict dentist. I especially like the murder consultant, MF Jones played by Jamie Foxx. There are some interesting discussion between the 3 fellow and MF Jones that will make you laugh. The comedy level are quite good and also funny, so do not take this movie seriously when watching it and you will have fun watching it. Overall, this movie is an average comedy movie.
Verdict:
I give this movie a 2.5 star over 5 mainly for Jeniffer Aniston acting.
