Synopsis: Eager but accident-prone young executive Tom Stansfield has finally happened upon the opportunity of his lifetime: he can impress his megalomaniac boss and the boss's luscious daughter, Lisa, by... Eager but accident-prone young executive Tom Stansfield has finally happened upon the opportunity of his lifetime: he can impress his megalomaniac boss and the boss's luscious daughter, Lisa, by simply house-sitting their lavish mansion for one night. It's a plan that could lead to love and success, if only the guests didn't keep arriving.

From director David Zucker ("The Naked Gun," "Airplane!") comes an outrageous, fast-and-rowdy romantic comedy about a young man whose quest for the girl of his dreams is interrupted by a constant flow of calamities. One by one, a barrage of wild and crazy visitors take over the house he's supposed to be watching and turn it upsidedown, as well as inside out.

MY BOSS's DAUGHTER stars Ashton Kutcher ("That 70's Show") as Tom, the hapless house sitter who manages to upend the entire neighborhood in one night, and Tara Reid ("American Pie") is the bewitchingly beautiful Lisa. Among the guests are Molly Shannon ("Saturday Night Live," "Shallow Hal") as a vengeful ex-employee and Andy Richter ("Late Night with Conan O'Brien"), as Lisa's brother, who's seeking refuge from a gun-toting, maniacal drug-dealer. Terence Stamp joins the party as Tom's power-drunk boss. The film also stars Carmen Electra, Michael Madsen, Ever Carradine, Jon Abrahams and David Koechner. -- © Dimension Films [More]

This 90-minute diversion won't be sweeping any award shows anytime soon, but it is utterly painless and actually quite sweet.

Zucker orchestrates the gags with great relish, lunging for the funny bone with sweetly idiotic characters, relentless slapstick, and topping sight gags.

It is a genial youth comedy that serves Kutcher well as a vehicle. That's it. That's all it tries to be.

The irrepressible Kutcher is at his best in this hysterical fantastic romp, Terence is brilliant!

It's a dopey, unfunny mess, and if anyone needs to lose their job, it oughta be the people who made this turkey.

Even after sitting through it you can't swear you've seen it. It vanishes while you watch, like disappearing ink.

Tries screwball and gross-out comedy and fails on both counts.

A numbing, end-of-summer stinker from David Zucker.

The spectacularly unfunny supporting cast -- including Dave Foley, Jeffrey Tambor and David Koechner -- doesn't help either. But luckily Kutcher is there to try to clean up the mess.

To say that this film, written by David Dorfman (also responsible for Anger Management), has a plot would overstate the case. It's more like a disjointed series of mishaps and gross-outs.

It should have been called “My Boss’s House” because there was very little focus on the boss’s hot daughter.

This, folks, is without a doubt, one of the worst movies that has ever made our eyes glaze over.

This muddled comedy of confusion feels as if it were a Farrelly brothers' comedy that has sat exposed to the elements long past its expiration date.

The film ... contains a nude shot of Andy Richter's rear end. Surely you do not need any more convincing than that to stay away.

The kind of comedy that confuses humor with acute discomfort.

As a movie totally absent of both humor and sexual tension, the only laughing matter in My Boss's Daughter is its classification as a romantic comedy.

My Boss’s Daughter is another generically sloppy and dismal chuckle session that doesn’t have any clue whatsoever as to why its torturous funnybone is about as amusing as a mugging in the city’s red light district.
