Horrible Bosses | Ratings & Reviews

"The manner in which the central scheme plays out is predictably moronic, vulgar and juvenile, though the parties involved just about make up for it."

VarietyVariety

"Frantic, funny and packed full of big names behaving badly – Ioan Gruffudd, OMG..."

Total FilmTotal Film

"The laughter is mean but also oddly pure: it expels shame and leaves you feeling dizzy, a little embarrassed and also exhilarated, kind of like the cocaine that two of the main characters consume by accident."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Funny and dirty in about that order."

Roger EbertRoger Ebert

"Spacey, Farrell and Aniston are a blast as the horrible bosses."

Otago Daily TimesOtago Daily Times

"Gordon's cast of big names help cover some gaping holes in the plot. Distracted by Aniston's new femme fatale persona, and how a well-oiled comb-over renders Farrell barely recognisable, audiences can ignore the odd over-explained joke, under-explained tangent, and the fact that just as the story starts to crumble, the Indian call centre guy saves the day."

New Zealand HeraldNew Zealand Herald

"The lameness of the gags and dialogue and the film's frequent deep dives for the bottom at the expense of real comedy speak to desperation in Hollywood to figure out the audience for contemporary naughty comedy."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"These bosses cannot justify either murder or lasting comic memories, fatally compromising a farce that could have been great but ends up merely mediocre."

Empire MagazineEmpire Magazine

"Tired at the end of a long week, I laughed myself stupid at it. You probably will too."

Dominion PostDominion Post

"In the film's funniest scene, a coked-up Day rocks out to The Ting Tings' "That's Not My Name" in a car in a state of ecstatic frenzy."
