The Boss Baby is a hilariously universal story about how a new baby's arrival impacts a family, told from the point of view of a delightfully unreliable narrator, a wildly imaginative 7 year old na...

Words like "inventive" and "inspired" are very rarely applied to the parade of cookie cutter animated features that pass through the multiplex each year, but The Boss Baby proves a refreshing exception.

Not surprisingly, the best thing about The Boss Baby is Baldwin’s imperious vocalization as the authoritative rugrat with a head the size of a bowling ball, punctuated by Margaret Keane eyes.

The mom is thicc as hell. 10/10. One of the best movies ever. The tank baby is the best boy in the world, Boss Baby got some moves, and best of all, the mom is so thicc.

It gives a good message about all the things that kids adopted have to deal with on their lives, even though it is kind of sad it gives you a good message.

The animated feature The Boss Baby has some hilarious moments. If, that is, you’re a grown-up.

The Boss Baby is a run-of-the-mill offering from DreamWorks who have prioritized frantic action and one-liners over the rich complexity of its competition.

Much like any child, even a supposedly surefire nugget of an idea requires careful nurturing. In this case, The Boss Baby often tries too hard and succeeds too little.

The Boss Baby is a movie made for few audiences, inconceivably inept in its ability to blend adult references with children's immaturity.

It's a below average kids movie. The idea of the movie is laughably stupid, in execution it's just mediocre and boring.

this movie just had a horrible storyline and obnoxious characters, and even the main characters as i consider, just are horribly obnoxious, there are some good parts and all, but like almost every cartoonish movie, it starts with a conflict and a simple solution which is never that interesting to me.. which is the case here, it just starts with a crappy conflict, but then is resolved with a horrible and simple solution to it that could've been done immediately at the start of the movie, it's not like a complex solution that i would be interested to keep watching for. this movie honestly did not get to my liking, the storyline was stupid with horrible characters, and a horrible conflict and solution.
