Reviews

“The Good Boss is designed to be an acting tour de force for Bardem, and it’s certainly that… It’s a memorably dominating performance.”

Sebastian Scotney
The Arts Desk

“With a style reminiscent of the Coen brothers’ trademark cinematic sarcasm, especially in their quirkier works like “Burn After Reading,” León de Aranoa artfully spins a story (which he also wrote) of bad behavior trying to pass itself off as good.”

Jordan Mintzer
The Hollywood Reporter

“It’s a comedy, but no laughing matter. It’s the blackest of satires — the kind in which a smiling face hides a monstrous heart.”

Paul Byrnes
Sydney Morning Herald
