Can I tell you how much I was looking forward to seeing this movie?
The trailer had me at the word "baby"...Lol. I have a thing for
animated films about babies and pets. They account for some of the cutest films
for me, putting Boss Baby on my must see list. I thought the trailer was so
cute, fun and entertaining. Not to mention Alec Baldwin's voice cast as the
Boss Baby. It took a little convincing to get my little man on board to see
this one. He wasn't too keen on the baby sounding like a grown man thing. He
thought it was a little weird. However after watching the trailer a few more
times, he was just as stoked about seeing it as I was.
The feeling I had
about this movie after it ended was so unexpected. This film is nowhere near as
cute and entertaining as the trailer made it appear. The animation was good,
but the humor was ho-hum at best. Not to mention the story was all over the
place and it lacked a good moral/lesson that I'm used to getting by the end of
these films. Halfway through, even my kid asked if we could leave, he was not
feeling it. I could tell he was having a hard time with that baby sounding like
a grown man...lol...and the story wasn't the easiest for him to follow
especially when the character Tim's imagination scenes were injected at weird times
~shrugs.
I was seriously
hoping this movie would be better, but I found myself annoyed that I got up so
early to see this movie (because all the evening shows were sold out) and could
have been sleep. I've heard friends say their kids walked out of the theater
loving it, but that wasn't the case for me and mine. I wish I could get my $16
and 2hrs back and spend them elsewhere...Ugh!...D Can I tell you how much I was looking forward to seeing this movie?
