So I'm not going to lie, there isn't a lot of really good comedies going on lately. Even putting this on I had my reservations. As much as I like Jason Bateman I find his movies are hit or miss. And to me this one was a hit. It's not a constant barrage of jokes and one liners, but I think that helps to make it seem real. If you have never had a boss you hated, man, you are wicked lucky. There has been a few that I would love to have something happen to them. Maybe not death, because that is way to drastic, but I do feel some people need something to humble them and bring them back to earth. This came up labled as a black comedy, I guess because it revolves around death, but I wouldn't look into it that hard. It dwells in that part of the brain where we all feel we deserve more, which is something EVERYONE can relate with. And sure the horrible bosses are drastic over dramatized characters, but I have met people like that. Some of the shit that Jennifer Aniston says, wow. I didn't see that coming. She was Rachelle for god sakes. But I think she has done a great job of getting away from that character. As well does everyone else in the movie. It's really well done and I enjoyed it for sure. Check it out.
