Horrible Bosses is the story three best friends, Nick Hendricks (Jason Bateman), Dale Arbus (Charlie Day) and Kurt Buckman (Jason Sudeikis) who all hate their bosses.

Nick hates his boss mostly because he’s expected to work from before sunrise to after sunset and his boss, Mr. Harken (Kevin Spacey), calls him out for being a minute late and blackmails him so he can’t quit. Dale hates his boss, Dr. Julia Harris (Jennifer Aniston), because she makes unwelcome sexual advances when he’s about to get married. But Dale happens to be on that pesky list of sex offenders so he can’t quit. Kurt actually likes his job and his boss Jack Pellit (Donald Sutherland), well, up until his boss dies and the boss’s coked-out, psychopathic son Bobby (Colin Farrell) takes over.

Quitting their jobs is not an option in the struggling economy and the three of them drunkenly and hypothetically discuss how to kill their bosses, and before they know it, they’ve hired a murder consultant named Dean Jones (Jamie Foxx) to help them pull off the three dubious deeds. The problem is, any plan is only as clever as the brains behind it.
