Een wel heel bijzondere baby draagt een pak, spreekt met de stem en de gevatheid van Alec Baldwin en schittert in The Boss Baby. The Boss Baby is een hilarisch verhaal over de impact die de komst van een nieuwe baby heeft op een familie. Dit alles wordt verteld vanuit het perspectief van een heerlijk onbetrouwbare verteller, een zeer fantasierijke 7-jarige jongen genaamd Tim. The Boss Baby is een originele komedie voor jong en oud, en is voorzien van een gewiekste en met liefde gevulde boodschap over het belang van familie. (20th Century Fox)

Politically incorrect animated agitprop for small children (i.e. future Hitlers and Trumps) and disparaging puppies. PUPPIES!

A good idea and a nice fairy tale for kids, rather average for an adult. The animation is average, there is not much humour and it gave me the impression that the whole thing is more like a second hand cartoon. Fine to watch, though. 60%.

A nice fairy tale for dog haters and baby lovers. It goes by quickly and the action scenes are almost Bay-like. I'm a first child myself and I remember well the pressure of the opening.

Despite the slight infantilism of the premise and the unattractiveness of the trailers, they managed to create a very pleasant and entertaining film that will definitely find its fans among children and adults with the wave of film references and the undisguised parody of Hollywood storytelling techniques.

Baby Boss may look at first glance like a film primarily intended for a child audience, but thanks to its mature script (and a wry Alec Baldwin) it has the potential to appeal to mature audiences as well. Like The Secret Life of Pets, a year earlier, this film uncovers secrets of a world - of children - whose nooks and crannies we had no idea about. I enjoyed the scenes with the toddlers and their intrigues the most, while the scenes with Tim were perhaps a little too sappy and childish in places. The film would also have benefited from better animation. Better three stars!

It's not a particularly great animated film, and it doesn't have a particularly original story, but Alec Baldwin, even if only with his voice, was great in the lead role, and his mini-boss character is just fantastic. The rest of it is pretty ordinary, but Alec pulls it off brilliantly thanks to his sense of humor and timing. Yeah, the humor is good here.
