I watched both 'Horrible Bosses' films back to back and it's clear that the first movie is the better of the two. 'Horrible Bosses 2' has its moments but lacks ideas and the originality of the first film. The guys are a lot more stupid in the sequel, they reminded me a lot of the Hangover trio. Whether that was deliberate or not I don't know, but they weren't that dumb in the first film.
By the standards of the average comedy movie, it's not bad. I laughed a few times, which is more than can be said about a lot of comedy sequels. Like in the first film, Aniston and Sudeikis are the highlight for me. Both are brilliant in their roles. 'Horrible Bosses 2' isn't as bad as some would have you believe, but there's a clear lack of ideas here.

For heavens sake it is a slapstick comedy and contains enough funny scenes to achieve its purpose.
Cant imagine what some people expect and the people that say they didn't laugh until the end credits well I actually feel sorry for you. It must be depressing to be unable to laugh at childish adult humour.
I personally found the film enjoyable but I must admit I am a big child at heart and see comedy films as they as supposed to be.
Is this is greatest film of the year NO but it is far from being the worst film of the year.
I will most likely watch this again with my nephew who has the same sense of humour as myself and sure he will love the film.

I honestly thought it was way better than the first. This movie is ridiculous, the whole scenario is ridiculous which is what makes it funny. The three main actors have the best synergy. Three morons who try to kidnap a millionaire's son for ransom, you can only imagine the chaos that ensues. I really enjoyed it, but the humour is a little silly so it's not for all. You either going to like it or hate it, more specifically Charlie Day. A lot of people complain about his voice, but personally I thought he was one of the funniest. One thing is for sure, this movie does not deserve a 6. It's well above 6 and should easily be ranking 7-7.5 score.
Personally I loved both the first movie and this one. Although the storyline is a little predictable it definitely is funny and it's great to see everyone from the first movie in the second movie with the exception of Colin Farrell. (Obviously)
I love Jason Sudekis, Charlie Day and Jason Bateman together and I'd definitely watch another movie with these three. Is this sequel Oscar worthy? No, but it is definitely funny and a pretty good sequel.

I really didn't know what I was getting into when I saw this movie. We all know how it goes with sequels. It's either good or terrible. It can be a win/lose situation when it comes to sequels. I was hoping it was going to be another Hangover, but I was happy when I was proved wrong.
Horrible Bosses starts back up again with Nick (Bateman), Kurt (Sudeikis) and Dale (Day) with their new invention: the Shower Buddy. They are trying to make their way into the working world again, but they are now they're own bosses. They don't have to deal with the bull they dealt with their former bosses.
They thought they were getting a good deal with Burt Hanson (Christoph Waltz), an investor to start up their business, only to get sucker-punched and lost everything to Hanson. They have no other options to get back the patent to their invention but to kidnap Hanson's son Rex (Chris Pine) for a handsome fee.
With Rex in on the kidnapping, they think they have a solid plan, but of course, things turn upside down and once again Nick, Kurt and Dale are on their own to make things right again before they end up behind bars.
The cast was amazing as always, and Jennifer Aniston returning as Julia, Dale's former boss was hilarious as always. I like to see her in roles like this because she carries comedy very well. Pine was great as well, playing the undermining, crazy, spoiled brat Rex Hanson.
This film truly held its own as a sequel. They didn't do much of outrageous situations for laughs. It was just right. It was just as funny as the first one, if not funnier. I was really surprised because I know how I can be when it comes to sequels. My mother even enjoyed herself with this film, and it takes a lot to keep her interests.
I would see this again because 1. I liked it and 2. I saw it at a screening and missed a few things, but I wouldn't seeing it again, even if I didn't miss a thing.

- TriviaJason Sudeikis stated in an interview that they wanted to put a gag in the film, where Jamie Foxx's character says to Nick, Kurt, and Dale, "You crackers got to go. I have three other crackers coming in," and as the trio get up to leave, the three characters from The Hangover movies would come in and sit at the booth. They finally decided against it, because it would take the audience out of the movie. Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms (Alan and Stu from The Hangover films) later heard about this, and thought the idea was hilarious.
