#BossBaby Movie Night! #BossBabyHE

The Boss Baby was the perfect pick of the night. Since a friend recently moved to a new place and her nephews and niece around, this is the movie that kept them quiet while we adult into the new place. Don't worry even though they were the one watching... we were the ones paying more attention to this hysterical movie.

Timothy Templeton has it all. He has a loving family that dedicate their time to him. He is indeed loved by his parent but things start to fall when there is a new addition to the family... Although this baby looks like a normal baby, he talks like a full grown adult who is conducting a secret mission. Timothy is not thrilled about the arrival of this "boss baby" because his parents do not have his full attention like what he is used to. But soon he learns the truth. This baby is there to stop the launch of a new product from Puppy Co., which would limit the amount of love for babies. As jealousy strives, Tim agrees to help Boss Baby so he can leave so his parents can love him the way they used to.

The Boss Baby is such a fun and funny movie. It captures the joy of being a kid and the meaning of a family. It shows the rivalry between brothers and how silly one can be with jealousy conducting the its jealous. But no matter what, the love of a family overcomes everything. It's seriously funny and I loved it dearly! A great movie to spend time with the family.

Don't forget to get your copy of The Boss Baby, you'll be happy at the end!

DreamWorks Animation and the director of Madagascar invite you to meet a most unusual baby. He wears a suit, speaks with the voice and wit of Alec Baldwin, and stars in the animated comedy, DreamWorks’ The Boss Baby. The Boss Baby is a hilariously universal story about how a new baby's arrival impacts a family, told from the point of view of a delightfully unreliable narrator, a wildly imaginative 7 year old named Tim. With a sly, heart-filled message about the importance of family, DreamWorks’ The Boss Baby is an authentic and broadly appealing original comedy for all ages.

When it comes to animated features, there are "kid" movies, there are "adult" movies and there are "family" movies.  The goal, I'm guessing, is to make "family" animated movies, or movies that the whole family can enjoy together, but making a "family" film is a tricky balance. The Boss Baby, opening this week, is undoubtedly a "kid" movie.  

It isn't a bad "kid" movie, as far as I could tell. The kids I brought with me enjoyed the concept of having a kid in charge.  The plot, pitting puppies against babies, was cute for kids.  There is a lot of kid, gross-out humor.   Alec Baldwin (as the voice of the Boss Baby) has some dialogue which speaks to children. The script is full of things that kids wish they could say aloud, but don't. 

The colors are vibrant. The music is cool. All in all, it's a harmless kid story for children of any age. 

Parents, on the other hand, should not expect to like it.  I sat through the film, but twenty minutes in, I was over the whole thing. Baldwin's jerky voice started to wear on me, even as a cute-looking baby.  There were several voice actors playing babies, but they weren't, I think, used to their full potential. 

And there are few animated features that are worthy of going past a ninety minute run-time. The Boss Baby isn't one of them. There are a few draggy parts in the middle. I think I dozed-off for eight to ten minutes. 

Still, The Boss Baby is enough fun for children that parents can survive the extended run-time.  Some years are great for animated moves. 2017 looks like it's going to be slow for original, entertaining animated features that the whole family can enjoy. So, when the kids have to get out of the house, The Boss Baby isn't a bad fix.  Take them to see The Boss Baby now playing everywhere.
