A story about how a new baby's arrival impacts a family, told from the point of view of a delightfully unreliable narrator, a wildly imaginative 7 year old named Tim.
A suit-wearing, briefcase-carrying baby, voiced by Alec Baldwin, suddenly appears in a family's home. He quickly forms an unlikely alliance with his 7-year-old brother, Tim, to embark on a mission to stop the CEO of Puppy Co. from releasing a new puppy that will take away all the love from the family's children.
The Boss Baby received mixed reviews from critics but was a commercial success, grossing over $500 million worldwide. While some praised its humor and animation style, others found its plot to be chaotic and derivative.
Praised for its energetic animation and voice performances, particularly Alec Baldwin's.
Criticized for a nonsensical plot that feels both overstuffed and underdeveloped.
