Censorship

Horrible Bosses is an American comedy movie that was made by Warner Brothers, and it was released on July 8, 2011. Possibly due to some of the topics brought up the theatrical edition was cut down. An uncensored version was later released. HBO Max uses the R rated theatrical cut. When TNT bought the rights to air the movie a number of scenes were censored in order to get a TV 14 rating. As a result language and sexuality were toned down. When RTL airs the movie in Germany before the watershed it is censored.
