 The Boss Baby: Family Business  Quote: The Boss Baby: Family Business (known in other territories as The Boss Baby 2) is a 2021 American computer-animated comedy film loosely based on the 2010 picture book The Boss Baby and its 2016 sequel The Bossier Baby by Marla Frazee, produced by DreamWorks Animation, and distributed by Universal Pictures. The second installment in the The Boss Baby franchise and the sequel to the 2017 film, the film is directed by Tom McGrath, from a screenplay by Michael McCullers with a story by McGrath and McCullers, and stars the voices of Alec Baldwin, James Marsden, Amy Sedaris, Ariana Greenblatt, Eva Longoria, Jimmy Kimmel, Lisa Kudrow, and Jeff Goldblum. The plot follows the now-adult Templeton brothers (Baldwin and Marsden) who are brought back together after the new Boss Baby (Sedaris) requests their help to stop a professor (Goldblum) from erasing childhoods worldwide.
The film was theatrically released in the United States on July 2, 2021 in traditional and select RealD 3D and Dolby Cinema locations, by Universal Pictures; it will also stream on Peacock for 60 days. Like the first film, it received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for the humor but criticism for the aimless plot.

Re: The Boss Baby: Family Business This is pretty much in line with the first Boss Baby movie with too much of fast paced visuals and one-liners that amount to nothing in terms of storytelling. I felt the first movie had some visual flair and originality in parts which this movie fails to bring through. None of the relationships are given enough time to breathe here because the movie is again busy moving on to next scene. It does find some footing towards the final act but by then there has been too much going on to care much about the end.

Re: The Boss Baby: Family Business The Boss Baby 2 is mostly watchable with some inventive scenes of animation, but the plot continues to be too scattershot, even more than in the first film. The films emotional heart also is mostly non existent, as Tim’s perfect daughter wanting to impress him is never really in doubt.
