Featured review
Great twisted comedy
Horrible Bosses is a great comedy that doesn't waste it's really good central premise thanks to a really strong central trio and a truly twisted sense of humour that hits way more than it misses.
Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis and Charlie Day are all fantastic with impressive chemistry, able to bounce off each other consistently. Colin Farrell and Jennifer Aniston are both perfect at being truly horrible bosses.
Seth Gordon's direction is good, competently shot with a nice pace which keeps the jokes and energy going across its relatively short run time. The soundtrack is a lot of fun, interspersed well and fitting the twisted tone really well.
