Like rats in a collapsed maze, these are characters struggling hard to find a path to comedic freedom, and are constantly getting lost in the ruins of an absurd plot.

This vulgar comedy is mediocre at best with some fun performances but few jokes that actually work.

The movie's main thrust is lowball wish fulfillment, which comes too cheaply.

A star-studded black comedy for anyone who's ever fantasised about killing their boss.

For something like Horrible Bosses to sparkle, the actors have to shine... and shine they do.

Gordon knows what works and what doesn't, pushing the leads' chummy chemistry to the fore while allowing the schematic and, frankly, highly unlikely murder plot to sink into the background.

The coarseness wouldn't be so bad if at least the steady stream of obscenities were funny. But there is, after all, an art to talking dirty.

A lot of low-stakes humor, occasionally brought off by a mostly ingratiating cast.

A ramshackle assembly of recycled characters and conflicting tones, duct-taped together at odd angles.

Horrible Bosses is very funny and features a great cast that exudes wonderful chemistry.

It's tempting to label Horrible Bosses a post-Hangover comedy. For all I know it may have been in the works before that box-office smash saw the light of day, but it emits the same vibe, even if it doesn't go to the same extremes...

With this cast, and this concept, it's just a shame that "Horrible Bosses" pulls up just when it should be taking off.
