Horrible Bosses

Who's in it? Jennifer Aniston, Jason Bateman, Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell, Charlie Day, Jamie Foxx
Rating 4 out of 5
The plot Nick, Dale and Kurt are three best pals who share one thing in common – absolute hideous psychos for bosses. After three particularly harrowing days on the job, they decide life would be simpler if they killed each other’s bosses, and hire Foxx’s ‘murder consultant’ to offer some advice on the dirty business of killing. Farrell – with a huge gut and combover – shines as the repulsive Bobby Pellitt, while Jen fans will be
astounded at what comes out of her mouth. Really funny.
