Directed by Tom McGrath is the sequel to The Boss Baby, starring James Marsden and Alec Baldwin as the Templeton brothers. They are adults now and drift away from each other. Tim is now a married, stay-at-home dad. Ted is a hedge fund CEO.
But a new boss baby with an innovative approach and a can-do attitude is about to bring them together again… and inspire a new family business.
Also starring in the movie are Jeff Goldblum, Ariana Greenblatt, Jimmy Kimmel, Lisa Kudrow, Eva Longoria, and Amy Sedaris.
Making her directorial debut, Oliver Wilde tells the story of two girls graduating from High School. Their tale is based on getting straight A’s while keeping their noses clean until they realize they must branch out and fit in with the high school crowd.
Will Ferrell and Adam McKay are included as executive producers. When you hear the crude, crass, and dirty-mouthed girls, there are no surprises about who produced this movie. Ferrell and McKay worked on Vice together, with McKay also directing.
The studio promotes Booksmart as a wildly original, fresh, modern perspective. I beg to differ. These crude and disgusting jokes are common in Ferrell and McKay’s movies.
Booksmart is an unfiltered comedy about high school best friends and the bonds we create that last a lifetime. Capturing the spirit of being a girl in High School, the film is a coming-of-age story for a natural generation.
Kaitlyn Dever and Beanie Feldstein play best friends forever. The movie includes Lisa Kudrow and Jason Sudeikis to keep it grounded. You might recognize Dever, who also starred in The Beautiful Boy, and Feldstein, who starred in Lady Bird.
The movie trailer is crude and foul-mouthed, and you might enjoy it.
Olivia Wilde talks on the red carpet at SXSW 2019 about the movie being a commitment.
On the red carpet, Feldstein talked about how special the night was because it was Wilde’s birthday and how the movie was fun.
Dever talks on the red carpet at the SXSW premiere about how much she enjoyed working with her co-star Feldstein.
These two trailers are similar, but one is called “no green band,” and the other is called “green band.” The “green band” trailer is 7 minutes longer. The differences are subtle, and if you figure it out, great!
The following featurettes show how the two girls are such good friends and make the movie seem like a lot of fun. There are crazy, unorthodox characters and a bit of truth squeezed in between.
The following movie clip shows us how it all began for these nerdy but daring high school girls.
The two “Meet the Characters” featurettes are humbling and descriptive, showing each character’s contrast. Gigi, played by Billie Loured, the daughter of Carrie Fisher, is introduced and captioned for all her zany tricks. Amy is the main character, and she and Gigi have a moment together in the movie.
Directed by Tom McGrath, The Boss Baby is a hilariously universal story about how a new baby’s arrival affects a family, told from a delightfully unreliable narrator, a wildly imaginative 7-year-old named Tim.
He wears a suit, speaks with the voice and wit of Alec Baldwin, and stars in the animated comedy with a sly, heart-filled message about the importance of family. The Boss Baby looks hilarious and should appeal to the entire family.
