Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis and Jason Bateman (r) star in Horrible Bosses 2 |
Horrible Sequel
I enjoyed the original (see review) but didn't laugh once during Horrible Bosses 2, a money grab of the worst order. Bateman looks bored to death, recycling Michael Bluth for the umpteenth time. Day screams every line, a la Bobcat Goldthwait (minus the talent) and Sudeikis ogles women. Enough with adolescent 40-somethings already (i.e. The Hangover.) HB2 is crude, racist and sexist (without being funny.) Thank goodness for Aniston's Dr. Julia, who collects cocks & "coma-boners," and provides the only spark in an otherwise horrible Three Stooges impersonation. The trio boasts, "We're betting on ourselves." I smell bankruptcy.
Grade: F
