Office Space

This was an unexpected hit in my household! Disclaimer: This movie is NOT for everyone. There is a certain level of crude humor, sarcasm, negativity, and irreverence about the whole thing, but if you can relate to the subject matter, that is precisely what makes it a GEM. Having worked for the real-life equivalent of this movies evil corporate conglomerate, I was able to relate to this movie in a particularly strong way, which made it a much-needed outlet for me. From the humorous depictions of corporate motivation attempts, to the evil boss who tortures the main characters (even in their dreams), to the sudden lay-offs that send them over the edge, this movie is tailor-made for the white collar working stiffs who live it every day (especially anyone in a technical/computer/programming field). If you have experienced the forest of gray cubicle walls, the droning, boring corporate meetings, the logic-lacking company policies, the inhuman treatment from management, you will LOVE this movie. It will serve as an anchor for you to see that you arent the only one who sees the BS for what it is, and I must say it is a refreshing feeling! If you fit the profile, the smallest detail of this movie will cause you to burst into tear-producing laughter. If not, you might want to give it a try, but proceed with caution. :)

Ive seen this movie so many times and watch it again and again. This is the epitome of office life.

If you have ever worked in an office, or felt you were just a number in the grand scheme of any corporation, youll identify yourself with this film. Did you ever feel that if you ran the company it would make sense? This Independent film exposes what we all know. The company you work for must be run by morons. It is also a great love story without any gratuitous sex or violence. In fact, it doesnt have any. If your child is 14 years-old or older he or she can enjoy it with you. (Some occasional minor profanity) You might as well prepare them now for what they will only learn when he or she enters the work force. Just because someone is their boss does not make them any smarter than anyone else. In fact, it makes you wonder how they ever obtained that position. I thought it was funny movie with a good moral ending. It is not what do for a living; it is how much you enjoy doing it. Oh, by the way, he gets the girl in the end. That should go without saying.

This movie is the perfect de stress flick after a rough day! Timeless Office comedy

Best movie ever

This is a great movie especially if you ever worked in an office environment.

Great satire on the cubicle life, and really a kind of modern take on Modern Times. I cant help but think that the traffic jam at the beginning, and the close up of the watch at the start of Peters work day were homages to Charlie Chaplins opening scenes in Modern Times. Even if they werent, this movie really captures the helplessness of this kind of work and the emptiness of the kind of fake business culture that so many companies try to create. Gary Cole is spot on as the passive aggressive manager, and the two consultants are hilarious. My only complaint is Mike Judges occasional leap into his Beavis and Butthead period when corn-hole jokes and other kind of teenage potty humor ruled the day. Fortunately, most of the jokes in this movie are clever, and its depiction of modern alienation holds up after 16 years.
