Horrible Bosses is hilarious. Seriously. Go see it. You’ll like it. I promise.
And don’t worry. This isn’t one of those comedies that shows all the best jokes in the trailers, which is what I was afraid of, since those were some damn funny trailers. Don’t get me wrong, they showed some great moments, but there are many more to be had in this movie. And it’s probably for the best that they showed such funny stuff in the trailers, since I actually wasn’t planning on seeing this until I watched the full trailer and laughed my caboose off.
This is an unparalleled comedic ensemble cast, and each of the seven, yes seven, lead actors gets to have his/her moment in the sun. That being said, Charlie Day is the best. This will be the film to propel him to stardom. Every line he said was met with uproarious laughter by my theater, and more importantly, he just portrayed an extremely likable guy. Mark my words, Horrible Bosses will do for Charlie Day what The Hangover did for Zach Galifianakis. Let’s just pray Day handles it better than Galifianakis did.
Like I said, the remaining six cast members are also hilarious, especially Kevin Spacey. Jason Sudeikis had the toughest sell in front of him, as he was the only cast member I wasn’t partial to before the film. Also, his character causes the most trouble for the protagonists, so he could have easily come off very irritating. I’m happy to say he wound up being just as likable and funny the rest of the cast.
It’s hard to discuss this movie without spoiling too much, as much of the enjoyment stems from the shocking and unexpected twists the plot takes. For a comedy, this movie was surprisingly intense. I jumped at a few parts, and was really concerned about what would happen to the main characters. I guess that just goes to show how far good, likable protagonists can go. Even if it hadn’t been funny, this would have made for a very interesting film. The pants pooping hysterics are just a bonus.
So seriously, just go see it.
4/5
