The Boss Baby: Family Business Reviews
Instead of revisiting the universe, this sequel subverts it, but without humor... [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 4/10 | Dec 29, 2023
There's very little to be found here for anyone with all their adult teeth, but you already knew that.
| Original Score: 4/10 | Jul 11, 2022
This is a Boss Baby sequel, not many are gonna come in expecting this to be the next DreamWorks masterpiece, but I cant believe Im saying this, but this is honestly not that bad.
| Original Score: 6/10 | Feb 16, 2022
To the film's credit, it's entirely aware that it's so over-the-line in terms of practicality that it just bunkers down and commits to the insanity.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 1, 2021
The Boss Baby 2: Family Business is a silly animation, and it owns that. But it is also one that sometimes speaks to kids, and then to adults in constant succession.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 6, 2021
In trying to reach every audience, they capture none. There is eye candy for the kids, but it makes very little sense, there is no sweetness and the moments meant for adults were just plain odd.
| Original Score: 2 | Oct 30, 2021
Sure it's milking the first film's success, but it works well and kids of pretty much any age, and their accompanying adults, will enjoy the humour, fun and animation.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 25, 2021
While not entirely unwatchable, the film's demented levels of energy will recommend it to younger audiences and may trigger stress headaches in anyone over 12.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 24, 2021
McGrath can do whizzy, elaborate action scenes, but they sit in a jumbled mix of random jokes.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 24, 2021
Its plot might make your head spin, but Boss Baby 2 is very amusing in parts.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 22, 2021
Its untidy, unpredictable, and unmannerly form does, indeed, evoke the exhausting, mucky business of baby tending, albeit with nothing like the familial rewards.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 22, 2021
Baldwin's back for this one but, alas, it entirely lacks the charm of the original.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 22, 2021
The frenetic pace and a smattering of half-decent sight gags should keep smaller children in their seats.
| Oct 22, 2021
Relentless but likeable...
| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 22, 2021
The sequel to the unlikely 2017 box office smash is a disappointingly cutesy and inadequate kids' film which doesn't know who it's for.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 21, 2021
Overall, The Boss Baby: Family Business is fine. It doesn't overstay its welcome, and busy and try-hard as it may feel, you can appreciate the ambition, and it has a sweet finale.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 19, 2021
Further complicating the already indecipherable lore of the first film, The Boss Baby 2: Family Business is nice to look at but unfunny, unengaging and unintelligible. May it grow up soon.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 19, 2021
In attempting to up the stakes and widen the scope, the returning writers have simply ended up convoluting and diluting what made the original so great.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 1, 2021
With its slapstick humour and zippy action, fans should enjoy this manic sugar rush that comes just in time before the end of the school holidays.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 10, 2021
...a dartboard of several decades' worth of entertainment magazines assembled in a lab, and it made me feel like the most decrepit, rotting mummy of a sentient being you could imagine.
