My Boss's Daughter (2003)

The Worst Film Ever

Overrated

It is a performances centric movie

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

This is a movie about men trying to gain the attentions of women they do not particularly like all that much.This is the same plot that most rom-coms seem to be made of: a man wants a girlfriend so that he can prove his masculinity to his friends.Because he does not care so much that he date someone he actually enjoys spending time with as he does someone who his friends adore, he inevitably casts his affections onto the nearest woman possible.Usually, this woman works with him--leading to endless workplace hijinks and misunderstandings eventually solved with a well-timed declaration of sentiment and a too-long kiss.What creativity these writers have, to be able to churn out the same plot over and over!However, there is something more nefarious at work beneath all this seeming "good not-very-clean fun". These men pursue women for sport, not because they agree with viewing women as objects but because their friends do. When they declare their feelings, they do so because they want the woman in question to like them for the sake of their reputations, not for the sake of their hearts. Movies like this undercut heterosexual relationships by encouraging mutual mistrust.There is a reason why women are never sure that men who profess to love us are serious, or are just trying to get us into bed with them.There is also a reason why men believe women need heart-shaped cards and mixed cds and grand declarations of love to take a chance on them.The reason comes down to movies like this one.It would be nice to see a few male heroes in teen romantic comedies once in a while who actually seem to LIKE women, rather than viewing them as trophies to dust off whenever their friends come to play.

I was intrigued by the nasty boss character as I am one myself, and the actual boss's daughter was attractive and it was interesting to see an even younger Ashton Kushner, but this movie is so puerile I had to turn it off. It was a waste of time to watch it. When people started peeing all over the living room, it was too much to watch. Painful, awful crap movie. If they had just toned it down a little. Are there really people out there that find it funny and like it? I was relieved to know that IMDb readers rated it so low. The career side to the story was intriguing as well as the young man trying to get a promotion and win the bosses favor. I liked that part. Also, the opening scene with the coworkers on the train was cool as I like his coworker's characters. If you can stomach non-sense movies or you are pretty young, then it might be one you can stomach.

Now this is a movie which makes me feel bad even by writing about it ! First of all : I can't stand (Tara Reid)'s ugly voice, face, performance, career and face (did I say face already ?!). The main idea is super; it's like Blake Edwards's (The Party – 1968) but with opposite condition where the party this time is hosted by the innocent guy and in spite of him he has all crazy guests, with little shadows from (American Pie)'s utterly rude-world-for-rudeness technique. Long story short it was crappy mix of nerds-in-destruction mixed with the teen comedy to end up as the worst of both. They wouldn't do any satire out of plot like this (or even think about it !). Actually this comedy was so sick, and I mean sick with every sense of the word, so making fun of everybody's handicaps was one kind of many sicknesses here ! And with hasty slight writing it became just stupid people through stupid sketches ! it brings the crummy of everyone; Observe (Michael Madsen) in a case of spoofing his cinematic persona as a ruthless gangster, that could've been brilliant, but he was so frigid, dull, and not trying to be any funny ! GOD.. Even its tagline was the dumbest of them all :"There are some things you just don't do" ??! YEAH, like watching this movie ! After some nice comedies by David Zucker as a director this is the movie that pushed me to reconsider my look at him as good director (once !). What got on my nerves terribly that way of dealing with releasing the damn movie; look carefully at it.. There are some lost links or strange deficient situations as the secretary's wild bunch going in or going out suddenly and strangely ! Or Carmen Elektra's role ? Some things vague or laconic like these would make sense with the release of the DVD with the wicked bonus. I ran into its poster in one site and on it existed the holy truth ""R Rated ! The Version You Didn't See In Theaters !"".. It's how to sell the same bad movie twice ! Accidentally I watched in less than a month 3 comedies with a certain scene in everyone of them that contains an intentional exposing for an old man's ass as naked ! : (The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear - 1991), (My Boss's Daughter - 2003), (Johnny English - 2003). The first 2 of the previous movies are directed by the same man (David Zucker). Well.. Is that good or attractive ? Damn sure it is, it got its fans, like the torn-off limbs are desirable for the Horror movies' fans, but either ways.. I'm not a fan ! Generally, the American cinema makes bad comedies, this is nothing like any of them.. This is much worse ! It told us more than once "Everything happens for a reason", I think this movie "happened" just to be part of unstoppable industry that swelled to produce 400 movies, any movies, per year, so the wheel must go on and on even if it made (My Boss's Daughter), or (Son of The Mask) or sequels to them too. Anyhow, If you have 90 minutes to spend just read a book, or rent any of Disney's classic cartoons instead, or go watch any reruns of (Baywatch) where at least (Carmen Elektra) was really existent ! ...Did I mention that I hate (Tara Reid)'s hair ?.

This is by far the most awful movie I have ever watched. I have never before rated a movie 1 out of 10. My advice is don't watch it. This doesn't even classify as a movie.You'd be better off sitting on the couch bored rather than watching this movie. Acting was terrible but what was worst by far was the storyline. Highly unlikely sequence of events which aren't even funny. They are actually very lame and stupid. Very foolish choice by Ashton Kutcher and Tara Reid to act in this movie. Might even upset their careers a little.When I walked into Blockbuster, the main focus was on this movie , so I decided rent it. I sincerely regret it.Once you're 10 or 20 minutes into the movie you could basically predict what was going to happen. I was hoping it would get better , but instead it got worse.I am not exaggerating this. The movie is terrible. Don't watch it. Hope this helps.
