Review of Horrible Bosses 2 (2014) by Dcedmonds — 03 Dec 2014
"Horrible Bosses 2" 10 Scale Rating: 7.5 (Very Good) ...
The Good: The film picks up where the last one left off and doesn't skip a beat. Bateman, Day, and Sudeikis exhibit the same comedic timing that made the first film so good. The supporting cast was also up to the task as Aniston, Foxx, Spacey, and newcomers Pine and Waltz all seemed to genuinely have fun making the film. While the premise and story is all kinds of silly, it works. Not quite as hilarious (or as good) as the first film, but extremely funny in it's own right and chock full of laugh-out-loud moments.
The Bad: At times, the obvious ad lib moments didn't work as well and caused a few scenes to stretch longer than they needed to ... with unfunny results. On a couple of occasions, the usually funny Charlie Day rambled a little long and it didn't work. That only happened a time or two, but did take away from the film somewhat. Lastly, I would have liked to have seen more of Sudeikis who seemed to rarely have any moments of his own.
