The Boss Baby

Where do babies come from? Under this scenario, they come from BabyCorp but some are sent to families & others are destined for management. On the surface, this looks like a children's show where the new baby wears a suit & carries a suitcase for some reason. However, this animated feature leans more heavily towards adult humor with iconic references & nostalgic sound bites from yesteryear and many of the gags will likely sail well over the heads of young kids. This film is about finding the meaning of family while poking fun at parenthood, sibling rivalries, & the spy genre. Hopefully, it's not too sophisticated for the kids & there is enough simple action & fantasy imagination sections to keep children entertained. There is a brief clip at the end but unfortunately the sound was switched off midway through the credits so the joke could no be heard in our viewing.

Alien gives it 3 "brotherly love" stars out of 4.
