It is about as respectful and rational as a hooker on amphetamines, but "Horrible Bosses 2" is also absurdly entertaining and ashamedly hilarious to boot.

In fact, there were too many noticeable instances where jokes and gags from the first film were poorly recycled into this one. While the new story and writing was an overall disappointment, Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudeikis, like in the first film, are able to make the most out of it and they themselves managed to make the film slightly worthwhile. It was good to see Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Spacey, and Jamie Foxx reprise their roles, but they didn't have enough screentime in my opinion. Christoph Waltz was ok. I also wish he had a little more screentime. Chris Pine does a pretty decent job as Waltz's crazed son. So while the story was a bit weak and lacking this time around, the actors all managed to make it a fun film for the most part. Overall, it isn't terrible, but it certainly doesn't hold a candle to the original.… Expand

My boyfriend and I had watched all other movies available and this was the only one left that held promise which we hadn't seem yet. At least it would provide a laugh or two.

Such a stupid movie. Not downright horrible like some other comedy sequels, but it's exactly the same thing as the first one, and the initial premise isn't nearly interesting enough to expand into a sequel.

Horrible Bosses 2 has some smart humor that is not always funny, likable characters that are sometimes annoying and unrealistic, past characters that are just unnecessary. Overall, it is a bit of entertaining, but it dishonors its predecessor.

De esas veces que el título no tiene nada que ver con la trama, lo único en que se parece a su antecesora es que es el mismo reparto, misma falta de química y misma dirección a ningún lado.

A passable-at-best follow up to an actually really good first movie. HB2 plays out pretty much the same way the first movie did, only this time it tries to incorporate jokes that would have been okay-ish in The Hangover 3 and more recent It'sA passable-at-best follow up to an actually really good first movie. HB2 plays out pretty much the same way the first movie did, only this time it tries to incorporate jokes that would have been okay-ish in The Hangover 3 and more recent It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia seasons, as well as a gratuitous use of the F-bomb courtesy of Jason Bateman. Pine and Waltz do add a good layer of fun, but that's not enough to elevate this movie.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Horrible Bosses 2 is a carbon-copy sequel of its highly successful predecessor. What made the original film so enjoyable from its charismatically funny characters to its hilarious plot have found themselves back with slight tweaks and new characters. The film finds itself lacking in innovation and creativity, relying on the trio of Nick, Kurt and Dale to raise the film above its subpar story.

Even within the trio the comedy becomes a bit stale as Kurt and Dale's naivety starts to get dry and repetitive as the film progresses. I'm mostly disappointed in the awful use of the cast in this film who are clearly phenomenal actors. Horrible Bosses 2 doesn't have Bosses to fight back against unless they refer to Waltz' brief character, the trio themselves or perhaps even the writers of this unimaginative narrative. Regardless it is a decent film for fans of the original and therefore a film to consider if comedy choices are slim.… Expand

When an unscrupulous businessman rips them off the trio, having obviously learned nothing from their exploits in the first movie, decide to try and get their revenge.

Things quickly go wrong of course and the film doesn't exactly do anything all that original but the excellent cast, in particular the chemistry between Day, Sudeikis and Bateman, ensures that Horrible Bosses 2 still provides some laughs.… Expand
