Review: Horrible Bosses (2011)




I have finally seen a darn good comedy film after ages - Horrible Bosses. The last awesome comedy I watched that matches the awesomeness of Horrible Bosses was "Ronnie and Mischelle's High School Reunion". Not that people didn't make decent comedies in all these years but nothing was so fantabulously crazy humorous honestly.

Horrible Bosses is a black comedy directed by Seth Gordon with a powerful star cast of Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis, Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell, Kevin Spacey and Donald Sutherland. 




The plot is simple and fun. Three friends Nick (Bateman), Kurt (Jason) and Dale (Charlie) decide to kill their horrible bosses Dave Harken (Kevin Spacey), Bobby Pellitt (Colin Farrell) and Dr. Julia Harris (Jennifer Aniston).

Nick works in a financial firm where Dave, his boss is insensitive and psychotic. He promises Nick a promotion, which he deserved after eight years of hard work but in the end decides to take that position himself leaving Nick miserable. While Kurt is an accountant who loves his job till his old boss Jack Pellitt (Donald Sutherland) is alive but after his death his sleazy, cocaine addicted son Bobby takes over the business and Kurt couldn't take his bitchy attitude anymore. While, the third friend Dale is a dental assistant to an extremely hot but lusty Dr. Julia who is always sexually abusing Dale to do her anywhere, anytime.




All three friends get so fed up of their bosses that they decide to get rid of them but they don't know what troubles are in store for them as they try to execute their plan. The movie is hilarious from the beginning till the end with a script that is unbelievably witty and funny. 

The movie has become a box office hit in just a few months. It might just become the highest grossing black comedy film of all time very soon. Although, the movie has received awesome reviews but some critics do feel it was quite racist on various occasions.

I loved the music and each actor played their part so fabulously well that one couldn't stop laughing all the way. The horrible bosses in particular were mind blowing. Although Colin Farrell had a very small appearance but he was just too good. Kavin Spacey never disappoints his fans ever. My personal favorite was Jennifer Aniston who looked crazily hot and  funny. The way she seduces her assistant is super funny and her scenes, though very few, are quite unforgettable. No body else could have done those scenes better than her. 

If you need a good laugh, I totally and absolutely recommend Horrible Bosses. You're going to love it!
