As an adult, it was hard to keep up visually and the overstimulation made the conversational scenes seem tedious. Their faces are contorted and they’re moving slowly and eerily.Īs far as scene pitch and stimulation, I found some of the chase scenes much too involved and fast. In the ending scenes, the parents turn into zombies. There was a particularly frightening part in which a darker baby character appears from the shadows, the lights blink and she disappears, they blink again and she reappears with what looks like a knife. In other words, she will probably be upset about some of the dreams that Tim has or some of the characters in the movie. One of our kids is very sensitive on “weird or dark imagery”. On the surface, this was a fine movie! I laughed out loud 2 or 3 times, it had the usual Dreamworks colorful fun, and it had a few spotty, yet moral-driven, plot lines. Several lines are clearly aimed at adults, since they include references to movies like Gladiator, Shawshank Redemption, Terminator, Lord of the Rings, etc. Characters occasionally use words like 'butt,' 'sucks,' 'heck,' and 'what the frittata.' In one brief moment, a pair of kids accidentally see/show their baby genitals (off camera) and scream in comical horror. There's a bit of potty and crying-baby humor, as well as a fixation on one character's obsession with sweets/sugar. The plot also includes a disturbing case of mass hypnotism and mind control. But, also as in the original, there are potentially frightening moments of peril/conflict, including chases, some destruction, mild bullying among kids at a competitive school, and fight scenes between babies (some of whom are, questionably, dressed as ninjas). The series continues to emphasize the value of family, teamwork, and communication. mission and must work through their differences to defeat a dangerous new villain. Adult brothers Tim (now voiced by James Marsden) and Ted Templeton (still Alec Baldwin) are once again lured into a Baby Corp. Parents need to know that The Boss Baby: Family Business is the sequel to 2017's The Boss Baby- both of which are loosely based on Marla Frazee's picture books.
