I didn’t dislike HORRIBLE BOSSES but my expectations were so high that the film was a bit of a disapointment for me. I just didn’t find it as funny as I thought it was going to be considering the cast involved. There were certain parts I laughed at but overall the movie kind of let me down.
Maybe HORRIBLE BOSSES 2 will be better. THR has an exclusive that after some extensive negotiating, Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudeikis have signed on to the sequel. Jamie Foxx (Motherf*cker Jones) is also in talks to come back for HORRIBLE BOSSES 2 as well. There is a chance that some of the bosses from the original (probably not Colin Farrell for obvious reasons) will return but the sequel will focus on a new set of bosses that I’m sure will give the trio plenty of grief.
Seth Gordon will be back as the director and with how well his movies have performed (his latest, IDENTITY THIEF is at $118 million) I wouldn’t be surprised if HORRIBLE BOSSES 2 is put into production very quickly.
