The Boss Baby. Hmm, where can I begin with to say about this movie? One
thing that's for sure; after I left the theater I don't think the movie
is worth remembering as those other boisterous animation movies such as
the colorful Inside Out or the legendary Toy Story trilogy.
It has been somewhat a major issue that this movie is discriminated by
a few people who think that it could lower down one's IQ due to the
ridiculous concept; a talking baby who acts like he's the boss. Well,
judging by the trailer, I could partially agree with the things mocked
by them. Despite that, let's talk about the whole movie. Yes, this
movie has a bizarre plot; producing babies in a factory machine.
But there are legitimately pretty good things in The Boss Baby.
First and foremost; this movie is so hilarious. Watching it with your
kids or friends can make you giggle and be heard by the audience in
front of you. That standard giggling is mutual as when someone is
tickling you at your right spot. Even tough audiences will at least
smile and think about the sweetness this movie has.
I'll admit that I could barely relate with the baby on the first act of
the movie. It doesn't really give him adequate space to introduce
himself but it gets along pretty well the second and third acts. It
will gradually pick up its pace towards the main plot and the questions
of who? why? what? etc etc. are answered when near the climax scene.
The Baby reminisced me and also maybe some of you on the principal of
the school located up in the air in the movie Sky High. Yeah, the one
with the gigantic bald head.
Let's wander around the dark area; the arts of animation aren't that
impressive. You'll be wondering if they actually wanted to do the
old-school style of animations or the director claimed to make a
difference compared to the ones we see nowadays. The characters look as
if there were very simple and soft-skinned but no enticing factor
unlike Frozen or Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs. Talk about the
backgrounds; the vividness of the complexity that tried to copy
Fantastic Mr. Fox or the live-drama movie, The Grand Budapest Hotel
failed drastically. The backgrounds can't connect with the simplistic
main stage where characters are arguing or fighting against one
another.
The plot seems bizarre as I have said earlier but that doesn't end
there, the plot too has a very confusing story for the youngsters to
understand and reveal the suspense or how the movie works altogether.
It's definitely better than the jokes-are-not-working Storks or the
Free Birds that tried hard to be as the same standard as Chicken Run.
