Defenitly, certainly, without any doubts, and just to make it clear, this is the best movie I have ever seen, not just the best comedy I have ever seen, this movie is certainly is my favorite movie. Before I saw it, I thought it was better than The Hangover and it turned out to be, I thouht The Hangover concept was the smartes concept ever, but it's not, this is the best movie ever made, the most hilarious movie ever and the most entertaining movie ever. Got it for Christmas, and having the chance to watch it was a Chritsmas Miracle, it certainly was, sow, I just want to say it one more time, this is my favorite movie with no doubts.

Seth Gordon is the guy who directed Four Chritsmases, I liked that movie a lot, but no director starts to be a memorable director after directing that movie, so for this movie, I hoped Todd or something, but that's okay, if at least someone directed, so Seth Gorond is now my favorite director, because he has directed the best movie ever, congratulations Seth, now I will watch all of your movies, even though they don't look cool. Jason Bateman takes the lead role pretty well, Bateman is in my top 10 favorite actors list, in this movie Jason just shows again that no matter he plays a mature character, he can still be hilarious, I'm proud Jason was picked to this movie, he just didn't dissapointed me it all, he made me laugh and he also made me thing he didn't have a crazy and dumb role, Jason is known from starring in the TV show Arrested Development, The Switch, The Change-Up, Juno, Couples Retreat and Up In The Air and is now known from my favortie movie, wich is this masterpiece, Horrible Bosses. Jason Sudeikis also stars in this movie, I always liked Jason, he always had funny and clever roles, so I basicly thought he was a fine choise, but after watching him in this movie, he just had kind of character I was expecting, crazy and hilarious, Jason plays the best role of he's career, so as the entire cast and I will not forget Jason's big talent from this movie, I certainly won't, Sudeikis is known from starring in a couple of episodes in It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia and 30 Rock, the movies What Happens In Vegas, Hall Pass, The Bounty Hunter, Going The Distance and Semi-Pro. Charlie Day, what can I say, he basicly plays a new Zach in this movie, just a few days before I've seen this masterpiece, I've watched Going The Distance, wich is not a fantastic movie, but Charlie Day starred in it, so as Sudekikis, but Charlie was the most hilarious in that movie, before I've seen this movie, I was very excited to watch it, but before I've watched Going The Distance, I didn't realase Charlie was so freakin funny, he is now probably on my top 10 favorite actors list, and by the way, after watch Going The Distance and Horrible Bosses, I also recommend you to watch at least two episodes of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, that way you will understand what I'm talking about, Charlie is known from the TV show It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia and Going The Distance, that's right, he's only known from those two titles, but he is now going to be memorable by this fantastic movie, Charlie is very lucky by being chosed to act in this movie, this movie has now opened several door for him, Charlie is now considred for me, one of the best actors ever. Kevin Spacey is awesome in this movie, he plays a total Psycho, who's rude, cruel and overall, funny with all of his attudes, no one cood play this character than Spacey, congrats Spacey, some people might think this is not your best movie ever, but it is for me, it defenitly is, overall, I loved Spacey's character, he plays a real asswhole, Kevin in known from Casino Jack/Bagman, The Men Who Stare At Goats, American Beauty, Shrink, K-PAX, SuperMan Returns and much other movies, but just another thing, congrats Kevin, you coodn't play this character better. Colin Farell is amazing in this movie, he is very diferent in this movie but he's mostly hilarious in it, Colin also plays a rude role, he's very cruel but so as Spacey, he's hilarious, Colin is known from In Brudges, London Boulevard, Miami Vice, The Way Back and much other movies, overall, congrats Colin. Jennifer Aniston plays the best role of her career and she also plays the best female role in this movie (obviously), finally Jennnifer didn't starred in a rom-com with a similliar role to other movies that she starred before, in this movie, she's just like the other guys who play the horrible bosses, she's incredibly cruel and incredibly funny, Jennifer is known from Just Go With It, The Switch, Friends With Money, Along Came Polly and Rumor Has It and some other movies, Aniston is now back on the track, I mean, she was already, she's now considered a better actress for my point of view. Sow, Jamie Foxx completes the cast playing a hilarious role, Jamie is known from Due Date, Ray and some other movies, he was awesome in this movie. Sow, overall, this movie has a great cast, an awesome cast, it coodn't have a better one, but the cast was just a piece of whole cake that this movie is as I like to say, I just loved it so much.

Nick (Jason Bateman), Kurt (Jason Sudeikis) and Dale (Charlie Day) are happy, very happy, I mean, they cood be happy if they didn't have a "thing" standing on their way, wich is that, each one of them has a horrible boss, like Nick's boss, Harken (Kevin Spacey), who just makes a storm in a glass of water just because Nick gets to work two minutes later, or shood I say, he arrived to work, at two minutes past six am, and he still has trouble because of that, simplfying, Nick hates his Psycho boss. Kurt also has a horrible boss, Bobby Pellit (Colin Farell), Kurt was supposed to be the owner of the company called Pellit and Son but Bobby turned out to be the one, and he is only ruining the company, and he also insults Kurt in every possible way, simplfying, Kurt hates he's Tool boss. Dale is now engaged but not entirely happy, because he also has a horrible boss, who is Dr. Julia Harris (Jennifer Aniston), who just arasses Dale every time of the day and says or does to him the worst and dirtiest possible things you can imagine, simplfying, Dale hates his Maneater boss. Quiting them selves is not an option, each one of them has a reason to can't quit, Dale is in the Child Sex Offenders List and the rest of the folks just can't a ford to loose their jobs in this times of crisis, so, after spending a night at the bar and drinking several bears and being drunk, they come up with an idea that wood make them live happily ever after, wich is... kill their bosses. So they hire a hitman, who is Dean Jones/MF Jones (Jamie Foxx), they were thinking that the hitman wood do the "job" for them, but he will only give them good advices for a large quantity of money, Nick, Kurt and Dale are now going to take care of the whole thing, but, there's only a thing, the plan is flawless, but the people who are making sure of make it done... are not. Sow, in just 18 lines, I cood explain you how good is the concept of this movie, I mean, can you see how good the idea of the movie was? Michael Markowitz, Jonh Francis Daley and and Jonathan Goldstein (the writers of the movie) are now considred the smartes writters in the whole world, I mean, I thought The Hangover was clever, but Horrible Bosses is way more clever, even though I still love The Hangover, it's just my second favorite movie, but this movie is way better, I cood make you want to see this movie just saying a line explaining it, "Ever Wished Your Boss Were Dead?". This movie coodn't be better than what it is, I say it again, this is the best movie ever made.

The soundtrack was good, I didn't pay to much attention to it, because what cares is the move itself, but I cood at least remember that this movie has the song "How You Like Me Now", wich is a song that I love and it's enough to make me say that this movie has a fine soundtrack. A movie with this kind of story just needed at least, an action scene, I don't appreciatte action so much as comedy, but it was good to watch this movie's car chase, there are now several comedy movies with car chases, and this movie had a fantastic and hilarious car chase.

Overall, now I'm going to tell you what I think about this movie. This is without doubts my favorite movie, this movie has several memorable quotes and it has the cleverest concept ever. Lots of people said that this movie was very slow at the beginning, I honestly didn't thought sow, I was never bored in this movie, and if I didn't nottest that, I was probably busy laughing about a scene from the movie, I basicly loved everything about this movie, but not including a thing, there's only a thing that I hated about this movie, it shoodn't have... credits, just kidding, but it was sad to see this movie finishing, because this movie is hilarious and entertaining, every actor will make sure of saying a hilarious quotes every five minutes, you will alway be interested, everysingle chosen song was apropriate to every scene and I guess nowone will don't like this movie, nowone will hate it and nowone will like this movie, that's right, nowone will like this movie, I think that who watches this movie will just love it, I mean, only a dumb person will not like, because if you are smart, you will undertand how awesome this movie really is, it's very worth to watch, Jason Batema and the rest of the cast were ment to have the role they each have, every actor in a way, just simply fitt in their character and I'm glad this is a rated R film, I really am, let me tell you why, if it was rated PG-13, it woodn't have so much dirty jokes and some bad language, wich was necessary to this movie, lots of movies are being ruined by being rated PG or something, that's a thing that makes them bad, if this movie was PG-13, it wood still be my favorite movie, obviously, but I just think this movie had to be rated R. I just can't wait to watch it the more milions of times I will watch this movie again, this movie is a true genoius work and it's a true masterpiece, if someone don't like it, it just has a bad taste of movie, this review just can't explain to you how much I wanted to see this movie and how much I liked it, I'm sorry, how much I loved it, this movie was an exctiment to watch, I was never bored in no possible way and I just loved the time that I spend watching it, because this is a movie that I like to call as worth to watch, don't watch those stupid comedies in the air, watch this, because this movie will surprass all of them, for sure. Yes, I do think a one hundred line review is not necessary to make you understand how much I liked this movie, this movie is 100% hilarious, it's 100% entertaining, it has a 100% good cast, it's 100% recommended and it's for 100% sure my favorite movie wich I gladly own. This movie is not just my favorite movie, it's way more than that, this is without doubs my favorite movie, it's the best movie ever made, what I was expecting.

Best Movie Ever Made. Extremely recommeded movie, 100% recommended movie. Grade: A+.
