Horrible Bosses (2011) 3/5 Stars

Nick Hendricks (Jason Bateman), Dale Arbus (Charlie Day) and Kurt Buckman (Jason Sudeikis) are friends since college.

They each have bosses who are making them living the hell everyday.

Nick’s Boss at work was President Director Dave Harken (Kevin Spacey) a psycho maniac who killed anyone that sleep with his wife and constantly verbally abused Nick. While Kurt had to work under his former boss’s (Donald Sutherland) son Bobby Pellitt (Colin Farrell) a dense drug head douchebag . Dale on the other hand was working for Julia (Jennifer Aniston) a man-eater dentist who likes to seduce him at work which is not good for the fact that Dale is a committed person who’s engaged and going to marry his fiancée soon.

Their bosses were so horrible that the three of them finally decided to murder their bosses by using criminal advice from Jones (Jamie Foxx) who they taught was an ex murderer.

Julie Bowen played Rhonda Harken the wife of Nick’s boss who likes to sleep around with people.

Ioan Gruffudd appeared for a while as a mistaken assassin.

The casting is quite good but there are some moments where the movie seems too forced and unreal.

But overall with all the nonsense, it is a quite a good movie to watch if you are not looking for something too serious. See how the three of them trying to do a felony act that somehow makes them experienced the life of actions from it.
