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]

Sitting through My Boss' Daughter is the enactment of a critic's worst nightmare.

There's not a single shred of the movie that makes sense.

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

The misuse of a great actor like Terence Stamp ... should be considered actor abuse. The rest of the film is viewer abuse.

Poor acting, dreadful dialogue, absurd story, blurry images, a lack of laughs… and a sequence that gives new and horrid meaning to the term “bathroom humour.”

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

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.

It's a despicable, vile piece of garbage and proof positive that the MPAA ratings board is a worthless entity, devoid of any logic and reason.

In director David Zucker and writer David Dorfman's desperation for ideas, nearly all the 'jokes' come at the expense of Jews, the disabled and victims of spousal abuse.

The simple premise pushes credibility beyond breaking point as ridiculous situations increase in number and size.

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.

Certainly there was a reason this stupidity was never screened in advance for critics.

Publicists in search of a usable break-out quote are welcome to this assessment -- My Boss's Daughter doesn't suck nearly as much as I thought it would.

The mishaps are mostly misfires, and the situations all feel contrived.
