Alec Baldwin finally secures his long sought after Oscar worthy performance in the animated thriller The Boss Baby. Baldwin made me truly believe that he was both a boss and a baby. A good actor could make me believe that they were a Boss Baby; only the greatest of actors, who Baldwin is among could make me believe that they were The Boss Baby. Director Tom McGrath assembled an impressive supporting cast as well with show business legends Steve Buscemi and Tobey Maguire. Hanz Zimmer has possibly his greatest score of all time and I have watched half of Interstellar. Both filmography and cinematography were truly innovative, and the use of CGI while cliché, was well placed and imperceptible to only the most trained of eyes. I left the theatre with the knowledge that Tom McGrath is not only one of the great directors but a true devotee to cinema. While the tendency of reviewers to bestow the honor of being the greatest film is vastly overused in this specific case I would be amicable to those distinctions. This is quite possibly the greatest film, nay work of art I have seen in my lifetime and I am quite certain there will be nothing like it for a demoralizingly long time.

Without a doubt this movie is one of humanitys greatest achievements. It is not only a pinnacle of the film industry but one of the best pieces of media ever fabricated. Once again  the legendary Martin Scorsese delivers impeccable directing, facilitated by the brilliant talents of Robert de Niro Lucas Cruikshank  and talented newcomer Robert Downey Junior. The story itself is gripping and heart wrenching it follows a young Al Capone as he begins to solidify his control over the streets of the Windy City but as Al soon learns, great power comes with great responsibility.

The thrilling action scenes paired with the awe inducing portrayals of the actors make for an unforgettable experience. Oh  and did I forget to mention that this movie contains a score composed by John Williams Ennio Morricone and features an original undiscovered symphonic poem by Mozart?

Whatever you are doing  it is not important you MUST rent nay buy this movie and watch it. I know in my heart that all non watchers of this film will be smote by the burning  white lightning of Zeus.
