Movie Reviews

  • this is harmless filler, the kind designed for long car rides and cross-country flights. It's a cinematic pacifier
    2 of 4 by David Fear [Rolling Stone ]
  • this animated picture from DreamWorks crushes all the whimsy out of Frazee's story with an avalanche of crudity. It's got poop jokes and other nether-region-situated gags galore. Plus: standard-issue action-movie cliches
    1 of 4 by Soren Anderson [Seattle Times ]
  • there's so much to like in this movie, but its best qualities are ultimately subsumed in formula. And not the nutritious kind
    by Alonso Duralde [The Wrap ]
  • The Boss Baby is a fun, if not instant-classic
    3 of 5 by Betsy Bozdech [Common Sense Media ]
  • The Boss Baby has interesting visual textures, a few good jokes and Baldwin has fun. But these elements never transcend an odd premise that fails to deliver big laughs or emotional heft
    2 of 5 by Ian Freer [Empire Online ]
  • hyperactive, oddly premised and never quite as endearing as it should be
    by John Hazelton [Screen Daily International ]
  • everything is perfectly entertaining. Too perfectly
    3 of 5 by Allen Salkin [NY Daily News ]
  • a visually brisk, occasionally clever low-concept comedy that's also trying, half-heartedly, to be some sort of Pixarish masterpiece
    by Owen Gleiberman [Variety ]
  • a delightful blend of clever and tender that's certain to tickle audiences of all ages and stages
    by Michael Rechtshaffen [Hollywood Reporter ]
  • "The Boss Baby" isn't as ugly as "Sing," but it's not far off. Tim's story might insist that love is infinite, but the movie around him makes it clear that even the best things in life are taken up to the attic as soon as something shinier comes along
    Review rate : C- by David Ehrlich [Indiewire ]
