Armstrong with every plummy vowel, in every language, that the character pronounces. There are a lot of voices I adore in this, Goldblum especially. Get in, get the dirt, foil the bad guy, get out.

Armstrong must be stopped! There’s nothing for it but to de-age Theodore, and Tim too (by accident) so that they can go undercover as infant and sibling at the Acorn Academy. It’s “The END of childhood” as pampered, coddled American babies know it.

There’s a new threat to babies, and it’s coming from this Acorn Corp, a “Little Einsteins/Baby Geniuses” operation designed to maximize every child’s potential and run by this expert ( Jeff Goldblum, of course) who shames parents everywhere with “The only thing holding your child back is YOU.” “I’ve been on hold so long I’ve got a TOOTH coming in!” And she’s voiced by comedienne Amy Sedaris like a baby on Red Bull and a deadline. Guess what? Baby Tina has the same calling Theodore once had. Tim’s recovered/forgotten that Theodore was once the diapered top agent/”fixer” for Baby Corp., and has a little girl of his own - Tabitha ( Ariana Greenblatt) - and a new toddler in the house. “The Boss Baby: Family Business” is a sequel to the TV show and the earlier movie, with an adult Theodore Templeton (Baldwin still) tearing up the business world, too busy to marry, quick to over-gift brother Tim ( James Marsden) and his family ( Eva Longoria) for the times he’s not there with them. And those who would further profit from the Baby with Baldwin’s Voice gag are hard-pressed for ideas.

“Put… that… cookie… down! Cookies are for closers!”īut here we are, four years and one 50 episode-run TV series later, and the “Boss Baby” is out of laughs. As somebody who’ll laugh at any word that comes out of Alec Baldwin‘s mouth in that bossy, Wall Street bull-in-a-china-shop Jack Donaghy (“30 Rock”) voice, I laughed and laughed at “The Boss Baby.”Īn animated tale of a bossy, business-suited baby taking charge of a threat to babies everywhere by leading his stunned older brother on a secret mission, with dialogue riddled with Baldwin in-jokes (his “Glengarry Glen Ross” hardcase sales chief)? Hilarious.
