virag's movie reviews: horrible bosses (2011)

good movie, so much better than any judd apatow-derived piece of shit.  horrible bosses benefited from a nasty, cynical, and subversive outlook so missing from something like bad teacher.  the characters were anti-heroic clowns, and the actors worked well together.  jason bateman has the phlegmatic jerk portrayal down pat; the guy from the tee vee show with danny devito was excellent as well.  you know a movie is at least good if it can overcome the inclusion of both the inexcusable colin farrell and the noxious jennifer aniston.  horrible bosses was not great, but compared to what passes for comedy in american cinema, it was a black-hearted revelation.
