The Boss Baby: Family Business is, as you probably expected, meant for young children. There’s enough wild antics to appeal to pre-schoolers and two, simple to follow, plots. One about brotherhood. The other about self-confidence. Both of which are good lessons for pre-teens.
This is far from Pixar-good, but it’s not bad. It pretty much does its job. Although it wasn’t very funny. There were three families in the theater with me, each with a few children, and I only remember hearing one of them laugh out loud once. There are a few adult references thrown in here and there, but none of them got much of a reaction.

The World's Most Indispensable Movie App
The RunPee app tells you the best times to
run & pee during a movie
so you don't miss the best scenes.

Grade: B-
About The Peetimes: I have 3 good Peetimes to choose from. After the last Peetime, there are still about 35 minutes left in the movie containing a lot of action the kids won’t want to miss.
There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of The Boss Baby: Family Business. (What we mean by Anything Extra.)
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

Movie Review – The Boss Baby – Adults Love This More Than Infants
Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂
Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
