"This is one of, if not THE worst moving-picture show to come out of DreamWorks Animation. Yes, even more and then than Shark Tale. If yous desire to see a better animated movie with babies, than just watch the Rugrats movies or the show. And if you want to see ameliorate blithe projects with a like sort of premise as this moving picture, than watch Recess or Codename: Kids Next Door. All I can say well-nigh this is, at least it's better than Baby Geniuses."— JacobHessReviews

Plot
A new baby's inflow impacts a family unit, told from the signal of view of a delightfully unreliable narrator -- a wildly imaginative 7-year-sometime named Tim. The most unusual Boss Baby arrives at Tim's domicile in a taxi, wearing a arrange and carrying a briefcase. The instant sibling rivalry must shortly be put aside when Tim discovers that Boss Baby is actually a spy on a secret mission, and only he can help thwart a dastardly plot that involves an epic battle between puppies and babies.
Bad Qualities
- The premise of babies working in an function surroundings is ridiculous and tiresome.
- Failed attempts at having centre or charm.
- Generic story where the belongings of their owner is jealous of the new ane, who gets all of the attention from said owner, and the two properties eventually bail; at that place are also banal morals about dearest.
- The concept of people much younger than adults organizing and acting similar adults is besides unoriginal, every bit it has already been used in cartoons such as Recess and Codename: Kids Next Door.
- Also, because of it, there is barely any sense that the characters are in danger, especially considering how the viewer knows how they would eventually end up.
- Many of the characters presented in the picture show can be boiled down to these simplistic tropes, with Ted and Janice both being the stereotypical "loving parents", and Tim being the typical "over-imaginative child with all the attending he has been getting from his folks"; thus, many of the characters are rendered easily forgettable.
- On the topic of tropes, the film uses the common trope of protagonists arguing over something and splitting up but earlier they get dorsum together in the climax, which feels very forced.
- A lot of the attempts at humor, while it does have its moments, fall flat and is also bad-mannered at times. There is also an overuse of gross-out and toilet humor.
- In i scene, there is too a close-up shot of Boss Baby's rear end.
- The film tries to imply that the events of the movie are all just in Tim's imagination, only it is undermined past several aspects, opening a can of worms:
- First and foremost, during the boxing of the Templetons' yard, when Boss Baby was implied to be going to curse at Tim ("Permit go, you picayune..."), it immediately cuts to a small scene with Ted and Janice, where you tin clearly meet Dominate Baby in the groundwork in the mini law car as information technology moves forward as Tim is belongings onto it.
- Secondly, the sequel (The Dominate Infant: Family Business) where, according to DreamWorks Animation, and nosotros are quoting here, "When baby Tina reveals that she'southward—ta-da!—a top-cloak-and-dagger agent for BabyCorp on a mission to uncover the nighttime secrets backside Tabitha'southward school and its mysterious founder, Dr. Armstrong, it volition reunite the Templeton brothers in unexpected ways, leading them to re-evaluate the meaning of family and discover what truly matters."[1]
- There is as well its follow-upwards web series, The Boss Babe: Dorsum in Business.
- At the finish of the film, Tim'due south infant daughter, whilst wearing a adjust, winks at his oldest, suggesting that she is some other BabyCorp employee.
- Fifty-fifty if the moving picture was supposedly in Tim's imagination, that only creates a new slew of problems, mainly from its tone, as information technology rapidly becomes confusing as to whether what'south happening is actually going on or entirely part of Tim'south imagination.
- Cringe-worthy fake pathos.
- Non very faithful to the source material from the volume it is based on; information technology feels more than generic than the same book.
- The ending is silly and completely out of the bluish.
- Francis Eastward. Francis is a pretty lame and generic villain.
- The imagination sequences are by and large pointless and feel out of identify.
- At that place is 1 inappropriate shot where, at Puppy Co., Tim and Dominate Baby sneak through what appears to be the butthole of a puppy-shaped boisterous house.
- Several inconsistencies and internal contradictions, including:
- The babies that aren't at Baby-Corp are still capable of talking without a formula, while the ones who do work there tin read the ones that aren't can't, as seen in one scene where the Boss Babe shows the other babies that puppies are getting fifty-fifty more love than the babies.
- Tim tries to convince Francis Francis that his parents would never leave him and Dominate Baby alone, even though... well, to quote Doug Walker in his review of the film, "...except for this moment of them leaving us alone!"
- Tim also gets nervous during the accept-off of the plane heading to Las Vegas and points out to Dominate Infant about how his parents always hold his hand during take-off, even though he seems to have no issues struggling against Boss Baby and his field squad in the boxing of the Templetons' m.
- Dated references to pop culture in a modern children's animated movie, with Tim'southward alert clock (Wizzie) makes The Lord of the Rings reference, The Beatles song "Blackbird" every bit heard and the tertiary act containing references to Elvis Presley.
- Most scenes are laughable, such as the scene where a puppy sniffed and licked The Boss Baby's butt while trying to sneak in.
- Ted and Janice are extremely unlikable as they do many dangerous things to the indicate where they fifty-fifty let Tim take care of Ted by himself. To make matters worse, they were even gonna give Tim his own time with them, and they were just going to exit Ted in the puppy zone, all by himself with the dogs! Sure Ted could actually have care of himself for obvious reasons, just they don't know that.
- Some parts of the film can be rather outright mean-spirited at all-time, such as in the pause upwardly scene at the airport when Tim says that he wishes Dominate Babe was never born which isn't actually emotional and comes off every bit vicious since he just insulted a baby right there and a fully fledged anthropomorphic one at that.
- Fifty-fifty though the animation is decent, there are a lot of animation errors.
Good Qualities
- The Animation is pretty good, despite the animation errors. Though this is a Dreamworks movie, so you can expect the blitheness to be good most of the time.
- Adept voice acting, despite talents being wasted.
- Some proficient jokes here and there, like the "infant jesus" joke.
- While Francis East. Francis is a pretty generic and lame villain, he has decent label, especially about his motivations.
- The credits at the stop are decently blithe.
- Hans Zimmer and Steve Mazzaro deliver a decent score.
- The babe designs are beautiful.
- Tim and Ted are likable and are decent protagonists.
- It has its share of heartwarming moments.
