Went to see Horrible Bosses yesterday and thought it was a good watch.

Charlie Day, Jason Bateman and Jason Sudeikis, all make this a great watch, with some brilliant supporting roles by Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell and cameos from Jamie Foxx and Donald Sutherland.

I liked the film because it touched on the possibility of something you could incounter at work, pumped up a little for the big screen.

Charlie Day was my favourite, reminding me of the younger Steve Carrell we remember in Anchorman. It was also great seeing Jennifer Aniston in a more sinister role than normal.

I give this film a 7/10 - not the funniest film I have ever seen but I liked the pace and the fact it wasn't trying to hard. (If my bosses were like that, I would have left a long time ago!)

I second that, especially after the let-down that was Beginners, last night.

I have to say, while I was interested in seeing this movie I didn't have great expectations, but all these fab reviews are getting me very excited! Now let's hope the Sky screening isn't actually cancelled...

I saw this last night at a packed MetroCentre, where I understand about 20 people were turned away, including our very own jmbblue and anjirose! Nice to see several other FMUKers there, along with a guest!

Once my ears had attuned to the plentiful use of extremely foul language, I have to say this film was exceedingly funny. I am not going to give away any details at all, not even in spoilers - they drive me crazy - but this groups of actors - Bateman, Day and Sudeikis were on top form. Also, their 'bosses' were terrific. I think this cast had the time of their lives making this film! :D
The audience were laughing out loud, and I thought back to The Hangover 2 and Bridesmaids, and I would say that this film is funnier than either of them. i can definitely recommend it.

9/10 from me. I was due some laughter! :D
