Tim (Miles Bakshi) is the apple of his parent's eye (Lisa Kudrow, Jimmy Kimmel). They make up awesome songs for him and do everything together. They even have cool jobs at Puppy Co. Life couldn't be better. Then, Boss Baby shows up in a taxi wearing a suit and tie and carrying a little briefcase. Tim is immediately suspicious of this little ball of joy as his world is slowly turned upside down. Now, it is all about the baby. That is until Tim overhears Boss Baby actually talking on the telephone (in Alec Baldwin's voice!). Soon, he learns that Boss Baby has been sent undercover by Baby Corp. to infiltrate Puppy Co. It seems that puppies are stealing all of the love from babies and the newest puppy release must be stopped before no one wants a baby anymore. The brothers team up to stop Puppy Co.'s dastardly plot and learn a little about the true meaning of family along the way.

I thought this movie was adorable. It is cute and funny. Alec Baldwin as the Boss Baby was just hilarious. It is perfect for kids and adults. The movie also reflects what it is like when a new baby is added to the household. Suddenly, it is all about the baby - food, diapers, crying in the night - Boss Baby to a tee. But, it also shows how the bond between siblings is formed and the true meaning of family. This is a sweet, happy movie. Take the kids and go see it.
