Seven-year-old Tim Templeton has always had an overactive imagination--and for the past seven years--life has been all peaches for him, getting all the love and affection from his caring parents. However, after the arrival of Boss Baby, an unexpected new brother dressed in a black suit complete with a tie and a briefcase, Tim won't be the centre of attention anymore, as the powerful sibling takes over the whole house, robbing him of all care, little by little. But, soon, Tim and the new Boss in a diaper will need to put differences aside and join forces, as a sneaky scheme involving the head of Puppy Co. threatens to tilt the balance of power towards their insidiously adorable furry antagonists, not to mention that the next Pet Convention is only in two days. Brothers, hurry up. —Nick Riganas

Trivia
(At about seven minutes into the film) When Tim watches Boss Baby exit the car, Tim is wearing a shirt with the digits "01" imprinted. However, when he gets down the stairs, the digits change to "02." This indicates his being relegated to second place by Boss Baby.

Goofs
When Francis E. Francis falls into the vat of baby formula, he comes out as a literal baby. However Francis did mention the reason he was fired from Baby Corp, because he was lactose intolerant to the formula which meant the youth renewal part no longer has an effect on him.

Quotes
Tim: [about "Blackbird"] That's my special song! My parents wrote it just for me.
Boss Baby: Your parents are Lennon and McCartney?
Tim: No, Ted and Janice! You don't even know their names!

Crazy credits
At the end of the closing credits, the Wizzie alarm clock tells the audience it's time to leave.

Alternate versions
The FX print begins with the 2013 Universal Pictures logo plastered over the 2010 20th Century Fox logo.

6/10

Simple generic animation, but I really like how the story was told.

When I first herd about The Boss Baby I did not think I would like it, despite the trailer showing me just how funny Alec Baldwin was going to be in it. It just did not sound like the best animated feature Dreamworks could possibly do, but as it turns out, Boss Baby is real enjoyable, mostly because of the story over the animation.

Baldwin plays The Boss Baby, a middle management exec for Babycorp (That delivers babies to the world), sent undercover as Tim's brand new baby brother, in an attempt to stop puppies from cornering the market on cute, (Which has decrease the production of infants) by stopping the manufacturing of the ultimate Puppy.

What's so good about The Boss Baby is how they work it in that the purpose of the film is Tim using his imagination to adjust to a new baby coming into the house that he once alone had the love and attention of both parents all to himself. A very uniquely done animated film, if not the best animated film. Just a great children story on children. Reminds me of Pixar's Inside Out.

Very funny and entertaining.
