Horrible Bosses.

When you have a crappy dead end job while in the middle of a recession, it is easier to kill your boss and get away with it than find a new job. That's the conclusion reached by a trio of amigos. As the plan comes together, it falls apart when one of the intended victims makes a victim out of another intended victim. The situation is made worse when a guy that has watched every episode of Law and Order forgets to lawyer up when you have info that can send someone else's ass to prison and keep yours out.

Friend of mine said that Horrible Bosses would be in the dollar theater soon because when he saw it the theater was empty. When I saw it the theater was packed. Last week everybody was watching Transformers 4. I was quite impressed with the turn out for a week old movie. The audience was reacting quite well to it. I did to. I liked it. I laughed a lot. But, and there always is, it just seemed that the whole bit with the dentist was tacked on at the last minute. It was like after finishing the script, they were a half an hour short.

Aside from that, It was well scripted and the characters seem to have some chemistry. While the bosses were certainly over the top, they were believable because we've all had to work for some dipwad that we wish had a peanut allergy.

I have to be honest, dollar theater for Horrible Bosses.
What is it with cops in California with southern accents, this is the second or third time.
