Read full review. Premiere Glenn Kenny. The result is a kind of very faux documentary style, which, along with the subject matter, has suggested to some the influence of the BBC television series "The Office.
Funny is not a word often used to describe von Trier's output, but "Boss" definitely is that, thanks to a breezy script and a bright cast.
Kevin Thomas. No one is likely to rank "Boss" on the same level as his more somber and ambitious efforts, but Von Trier admirers will be pleased to discover that, even while working in a far less consequential mode than usual, the ever-uninhibited filmmaker's distinctive flair is in full force.
Leslie Felperin. For all its slightness, pic is helmer's least pretentious and most sheerly enjoyable for years. Owen Gleiberman.
This satire of empty-suit capitalism has scalding moments, but most of it suggests Being There meets The Office gibberized into theater of the absurd.
Mick LaSalle. It's a modest and mildly funny effort, with good scenes and touches of incisive satire, but it's not quite funny enough, and it's undermined by its camera technique.

Keep Dogme95 back in when Von Trier was a goat herder and a real filmmaker like Michael Mann was finishing his masterpiece Heat.

But then the owner had to sell the company, the buyer requested to meet the owner in person. So he decided to hire an actor instead to play the role.
I love the ensemble, it's very clever and the dialogues were hilarious. I especially liked von Trier's attempt of using automavision, it's an unique idea that allows the camera to select the coordination of the shots and audio processing at random.
It's a clever little gem that should not be missed by Lars von Trier fans. Sylvester K Super Reviewer. May 10, You know, I can't really help but think that whenever I see this film's title, or at least I didn't up until I saw the film itself, which isn't quite as lively as Queen.
No, people, the film does a decent job of showing that after he got a little more controlled with his filmmaking experimentation, Lars von Trier could keep things reasonably interesting without the Björk musical numbers from "Dancer in the Dark" and soundstage sets from "Dogville" and "Manderlay".
More interesting is the fact that Björk musical numbers and soundstage sets really aren't that avant-garde compared to stylistic touches in some of von Trier's earlier work.
I mean, seriously, the man is so fond of going off the usual beat and path that even when he does a film that is relatively traditionalist for him, it's a comedy, something that is definitely different from what he usually does.
Well, I don't know, they also called "The Idiots" something of a comedy, and about the only funny thing about that film, outside of how often the boom mic dipped into shots, was the idea that people actually found it entertaining enough to consider it a comedy.
Okay, this film is decidedly more entertaining than "The Idiots", so I don't reckon they were completely inaccurate when they called this von Trier film a comedy, although that's not to say that von Trier doesn't take the entertainment value off beat at times, with a number of factors.
As with many of Lars von Trier's minimalist, maybe even intimate efforts, this film is actually not especially focused on fleshing out its characters, who are reasonably well-written and well-portrayed, but still seriously underdeveloped, saying only so much, and still somehow outstaying its welcome.
Minimalist to begin with, underdeveloped, and still about minutes in length, the film has a tendency to drag its feet, often something fierce, with excess material and repetitious filler which do enough of a number on a sense of pacing when not backed by a cold atmosphere.
Once again abandoning musicality and other forms of classic stylistic flare, while keeping pace steady, von Trier's direction is about as plagued as it is graced with thoughtfulness, which is too often cold and dull, defusing bite that was never to be too firm.
Even when you disregard von Trier's active enforcement of a sense of minimalism, this film's story is that of a comedy, or at least a borderline fluff piece, which is ultimately inconsequential, despite uniqueness and some interesting themes, and thinned out even further by naturally questionable elements to von Trier's interpretation.
Von Trier is pretty toned down with his artistic liberties compared to many of his other films, but he can still get carried away with questionable stylization, both within technicality which is plagued by intentionally uneven sound mixing and jarring editing that often devolves to major jump cuts, - some of which don't even change up angles - and, of course, within storytelling that is kind of disjointed and occasionally abstractionist in what characterization it has.
The film is weird, make no bones about it, and while it's still not so far out there that it falls flat into the mediocrity that claimed certain other efforts of this nature, it doesn't stand a chance of elevating beyond its developmental shortcomings, pacing problems, thinness and questionable stylizing, to the level of other von Trier films of the time.
I don't suppose I'm asking that this film be "Dancer in the Dark", or "Dogville", or "Manderlay", but it should have done more, and yet, it still does enough right to get by past all of its problems, partly with the help of good looks.
All but - nay - pretty decidedly inarguably the most consistently impressive form of style in this film is visual style that, even then, isn't all that rich or exceptionally dynamic, - continuing von Trier's recent movement towards less flash cinematographic tastes - yet still plays with a certain bluish chill to its palette that is distinct to the point of being truly haunting at times, as well as rather complimentary to a cold air that a dark comedy of this nature is defined by, even in concept.
Needless to say, a cold story isn't exactly all that much of a meaty story, and it's not like improvable moves in the interpretation make it any easier to deny that, but there is still a certain intrigue to this somewhat refreshing take on a classic tale of finding your comeuppance after years of scheming, sold largely by, of all things, convincing performances.
While not given the dramatic range found in performances of previous, more consequential Lars von Trier films, most every member of this film's colorful cast has a certain distinguished charm that, in all fairness, has some endearing material to ride on.
Von Trier's script is underdeveloped, unevenly paced and questionably stylized with its probability and consistency, but as far as tonal changes in pace go, von Trier turns in a comedic script with relative success, delivering on clever dialogue and set pieces that are tasteful in their subtlety, yet still sharp enough to amuse adequately.
The film is plenty witty, but as a dark comedy, it isn't all that riotous, or at least as colorful as it probably should be if it aims to compensate for heavy blows to entertainment value, for although there are highlights in von Trier's performance as screenwriter, they might not be enough to save the final product.
No, what ultimately saves the final product is von Trier's performance as director, because as limp as many of his subtle touches are, there's a lot of subtlety to this film, and von Trier's delicacy, occasionally flavored up by some commendable stylistic touches, draw upon those light spots of color that end up going a long way in holding your attention.
I suppose the film is a challenge, and not in the best sense, but it is a challenge reasonably worth having, because even though it's not exactly rewarding, it's endearing enough to entertain adequately, if inconsistently.
When it comes time to shut down, even with all of the underdevelopment, the film still has time to get dully draggy and, as far as style is concerned, get carried away in its telling of a thin story, and that could ruin the final product as less than underwhelming, but through a handsome visual style and charismatic performances, in addition to clever scripting and thoughtful direction, "The Boss of It All" proves to be an adequate dark art comedy, in spite of its areas of artistic misguidedness.
Cameron J Super Reviewer. The co-production by New Perspectives and Soho theatre is very much its own thing, doing away with boardroom meetings and encounters over the photocopier.
Instead, Zoom technology becomes part of its reinvention and it is funnier for it, particularly with Lawrence as its lead, though the cast is unanimously strong, even if characters are blunt-edged stereotypes.
Like the film, the drama has an omniscient narrator Tone Haldrup Lorenzen who is just as grating, although here the commentary takes a self-referential poke at the new genre of Zoom theatre.
The Boss Of It All could be read as more a comment on filmmaking than a comedy per se, with Gantzler's gutless leader as a stand-in for a bad director who's unwilling to bring down the hammer.

For nearly 50 years, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies have made a meal out of raw panic. Lawrence is too charismatic a character to be despised so we end up loving her and her underlings do as well.
The final rebellion, which features a fabulous guest appearance from cabaret artist Le Gateau Chocolat other guests include Gemma Whelan, Anuvab Pal, Neil Hamburger, Gerry Howell and Natalie Palamides is a feelgood moment, but the more serious stuff on office politics seems lost.
In the end, this drama lacks teeth and seems like a lark — a critique of performance and actors more than leadership — but it is thoroughly entertaining along the way.
