DreamWorks’ The Boss Baby looks like an unholy mix between 30 Rock, Look Who’s Talking, and that Saturday Night Live sketch where Beck Bennett plays a businessman with the motor skills of an infant. Alec Baldwin voices the titular child, a preternaturally verbal tyke perpetually outfitted in a mini-suit, whose presence enrages his older brother Tim (Miles Bahski). Their parents (Lisa Kudrow and Jimmy Kimmel) are somehow oblivious to the fact that this small being carries a briefcase and is viciously averse to being helped hold his bottle. Baldwin isn’t stretching much as this sushi-loving brat: He sounds like a miniature, animated version of Jack Donaghy.
This endeavor is directed by DreamWorks veteran Tom McGrath, who was behind the Madagascar franchise. The Boss Baby will wail into theaters March 31.
