Tired of always answering to others, Nick (Jason Bateman), Dale (Charlie Day) and Kurt (Jason Sudeikis) go into business for themselves. After demonstrating the prototype for an invention called the Shower Buddy, the guys attract the attention of Rex Hanson and his father, Bert. Bert invests in the trio's product, then cancels the order and steals their idea. Now heavily in debt and with no legal recourse, Nick, Dale and Kurt decide to kidnap Rex and use the ransom money to pay off their loans.

Critics Consensus

Horrible Bosses 2 may trigger a few belly laughs among big fans of the original, but all in all, it's a waste of a strong cast that fails to justify its own existence.

2.5/5

A foul-mouthed, sex-obsessed immature comedy that pushes the boundaries of decency. So, all in all, not a bad Friday-night flick after a hard week's work.

Horrible Bosses 2 is more of the same, yet less.

1/5

A problem arises with the sequel, however, when the bosses have already been vanquished in the previous movie.

For me though, it's one of the best studio comedies of the year; a hearty step up from their first outing and a nearly laugh a minute affair.

If you laugh once during the 108-minute runtime, that will have been more than this critic.

1/5

There are more laughs on the average job application than in this workplace "comedy." It's misogyny masquerading as humour, with unlikeable characters and an inane premise that diminishes in interest as the running time increases.

just watched Horrible Bosses 1 and now 2-i can't handle how HIGH PITCHED the voice of Dale (Charlie Day) is and how STUPID all of them are-this movie could be so much funnier if they had someone tell them 'that's toooooooooooo much' S.T.F.U.

A pretty entertaining caper! The film is mostly carried by the quality of the actors and the relationship between the main 3 friends. Funny and silly, just how you'd expect it to be.

Not as strong as the first one, but it has it`s moments.

Funny at times, but tired and worn, as it is pretty much a repeat of the first movie. As such, it feels lazy and weak

The dialougues, though crass, were funny. And the friendship of the three men and their silly dynamics was laugh out loud funny.

Very silly and very funny. My wife and I we're laughing continuously. But you have to like silly humour.
