Rather than just invent a world where a baby can be a talking business hard-ass (in the way Family Guy gives no explanations for Stewie), what we are watching is all in Tim’s head, so immediately the action is at arm’s length. It’s hard to invest when what you are watching is one 97-minute flight of fantasy. It then doesn’t help that the imagined mythos of The Boss Baby is convoluted and mechanical. The Boss Baby is on a mission from Baby Corp, the (visually splendid) heavenly factory where all infants come from, to uncover new intel on Forever Puppy, an engineered everlasting pooch designed to divert the love away from children. As Tim realises The Boss Baby will leave when he completes the mission, the film becomes a buddy picture as the mismatched duo put differences aside to find the Forever Puppy. Cue an unfunny break-in into a pet expo, a baddie who wants to destroy the world, a magic formula that keeps people from growing up and obvious messaging about the need for sharing and love. In places, it has visual panache, some fun gags (a charming talcum powder fart joke) and delivers an exciting set-piece in a garden chase scored to the ’70s cop show S.W.A.T. As is the DreamWorks way, it also features some of the most random referencing, from The Apartment to Raiders to The Six Million Dollar Man. It’s a scattershot approach that informs the entire film. The Boss Baby is hopped up on energy but never harnesses it effectively. There are laughs and heart buried in this idea somewhere.

In an interview with USA Today, Baldwin talked about recording the voices for Boss Baby 2 while in quarantine. “We had already started voice recording, but COVID disrupted everything. We wound up recording from home on my laptop. But I’m not a computer aficionado or tech person. We got through it, which is a miracle because there’s a lot of projects that aren’t out,” he said.
