kayumanggi Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I saw the trailer attached to LOGAN and it looked BAD. It was obvious this didn't get the KFP or HTTYD treatment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YM! Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Guessing 55%-75% on RT, got a feeling that Dreamworks will become more like Illumination these next few years: Big Box Office (DOM and WW), but mediocre movies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narniadis Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Anyone thinking this will do under 100m *cough boxoffice.com cough* needs to rebook at things. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YM! Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 (edited) Starting off at 20% on RT at 5 reviews. Looks this'll be another Home. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_boss_baby/ Edited March 13, 2017 by YourMother 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of Dreamworks's films has always been mediocre and these days Illumination makes much more money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, KFP trilogy, HTTYD1 and 2, Shrek 1 and 2, Mr Peabody, Madagascar 3, Prince of Egypt, Chicken Run, Wallace and Gromit, and to a lesser extent Megamind are mediocre. I meant more mediocre than their 04'-08' era and recently. But thanks to Universal owning them they can make bank again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a few of those movies are indeed, mediocre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prince of Egypt is one of my favorite animated musicals imo, Peabody had a great heart, and I'm a sucker for well done cartoony slapstick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morieris Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Quote tries to use the it’s-all-in-Tim’s-mind premise to turn “The Boss Baby” into a variation on “Inside Out” Why do I doubt that, Variety writer. This is the third Dreamworks book to movie adaptation and so far they've only got one good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LateReg Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Why are there so few reviews, and why is the embargo lifted so early? Did it play somewhere or SXSW or overseas or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
