When a young man agrees to housesit for his boss, he thinks it'll be the perfect opportunity to get close to the woman he desperately has a crush on – his boss's daughter.

The only real physical comedy in My Boss's Daughter comes from Zucker, Dorfman, and Kutcher stumbling over each other, but it's unlikely anyone will laugh.

Scott Tobias, AV Club

Comedy's cardinal rule is never make it look hard, but that wisdom is ignored in My Boss's Daughter.

Robert Koehler, Variety

I believe in a movie's right to die.

J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader

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.

Ben Nuckols, Associated Press
Rotten

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.
