Ranking 11 Movie Bosses From Amazing to Horrible

Joe is the record store manager who's more father figure than boss. Need counseling, bail money, a great drummer? Joe's your guy. Let's face it — he's a superb manager. Superb.

Rob might be the most easygoing boss ever; you can really just roll in to his store whenever you get up and denigrate the customers' terrible music taste as you wish. He'd be on my top five list of movie bosses.

Married couple Bobby and Paulette might be nerdy and irritating as manager and co-manager team of Adventureland, but if a disgruntled customer ever chases after you, they'll be there wielding a baseball bat to defend you.

Newspaper editor Gus may not have the most faith in his reporters, using tough love to get his point across, but in the end, he cares more about his employees than the story itself.

There are few bosses as encouraging and supportive as Rose — earn her trust and she'll forgive most well-meaning indiscretions, like forging your age to work for her. And if you're ever in a jam? Just tell her you're "right on top of that, Rose."

Bill Lumbergh might be the most passive aggressive boss on this list. What does he even really do anyway, besides drink coffee, ask about memos, and make you come in on Saturday? He's the worst kind of manager: the kind who hovers while he micromanages, one monotone syllable at a time.

Edward Grey is the original Christian Grey. He's a challenge to work for, as he expects perfection and has little patience for errors. Worse, if you mess up on the job, he'll give you a spanking.

Dr. Evil's leading style is right there in his name, but is he really asking so much? All he wants are some frickin' sharks with some frickin' laser beams attached to their heads. He's the boss; he needs the info!

"That's all . . ." Magazine editrix Miranda Priestly can reduce you to nothing with one withering, head-to-toe glance. She demands more than any one person can give, and once you disappoint her, she'll make sure you never work in this town again.
