HORRIBLE BOSSES: AMUSING FILM

Dean 'MF' Jones: I think I can help you boys.
Kurt Buckman: Are you a businessman?
Dean 'MF' Jones: Mother F**ker Jones.
Dale Arbus: Your first name is 'Mother F**ker?
Dean 'MF' Jones: My real name is Dean.
Nick Hendricks: Dean Jones, that's the same name of the actor in Herbie and the Love Bug.
Kurt Buckman: Yeah he probably doesn't even know that is.
Dean 'MF' Jones: I know who he is b***h. I can't walk around this f**king neighborhood with that Disney-ass name.

 The poster for this film, shows six good reasons why this a funny movie. Unlike others, I did not see this as "the funniest film of the year". However, I did think it was fun to watch.The uncompromising Jason Bateman stars with Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis who are three good friends who all have the same problem: their bosses. Kevin Spacey is an asshole, Colin Farrell is a coke head and Jennifer Aniston, well, let's just say she has some sexual frustrations. All three friends are pushed to their breaking point and one night in jest, it is suggested that they solve the problem by murdering each other's bosses. Jamie Foxx is perfect as a consultant hired on to advise on their proposed criminal deeds, Dean MF Jones. As with many things, the fun is in the journey and watching these three ordinary Joe's try to act as criminals is a long path to nowhere. Anyone who has daydreams of getting rid of their boss will appreciate at least the idea behind this film.
