Editorial Review:

Description:
Unable to endure another mind-numbing day at Initech Corporation, cubicle slave Peter Gibbons (Ron Livingston) gets fired up and decides to get fired. Armed with a leisurely new attitude and a sexy new girlfriend (Jennifer Aniston), he soon masters the art of neglecting his work, which quickly propels him into the ranks of upper management! Now the stage is set for Peter to carry out a high-tech embezzling scheme that's sure to mean the end of his job and a one-way ticket to easy street. Can he pull it off before all corporate hell breaks loose?

Amazon.com:
Ever spend eight hours in a 'Productivity Bin'? Ever had worries about layoffs? Ever had the urge to demolish a temperamental printer or fax machine? Ever had to endure a smarmy, condescending boss? Then Office Space should hit pretty close to home for you. Peter (Ron Livingston) spends the day doing stupefyingly dull computer work in a cubicle. He goes home to an apartment sparsely furnished by IKEA and Target, then starts for a maddening commute to work again in the morning. His coworkers in the cube farm are an annoying lot, his boss is a snide, patronizing jerk, and his days are consumed with tedium. In desperation, he turns to career hypnotherapy, but when his hypno-induced relaxation takes hold, there's no shutting it off. Layoffs are in the air at his corporation, and with two coworkers (both of whom are slated for the chute) he devises a scheme to skim funds from company accounts. The scheme soon snowballs, however, throwing the three into a panic until the unexpected happens and saves the day. Director Mike Judge has come up with a spot-on look at work in corporate America circa 1999. With well-drawn characters and situations instantly familiar to the white-collar milieu, he captures the joylessness of many a cube denizen's work life to a T. Jennifer Aniston plays Peter's love interest, a waitress at Chotchkie's, a generic beer-and-burger joint à la Chili's, and Diedrich Bader (The Drew Carey Show) has a minor but hilarious turn as Peter's mustached, long-haired, drywall-installin' neighbor. --Jerry Renshaw

- Kafka, Peter Pan and Flair Oh My!
Are you fed up with the mindless bureaucracy of your workplace? nauseated with the importance of process over results? anxiety ridden because of your job? then Office Space is the movie for you. The setting for Office Space is an Information Technology company that processes transactions for Credit Unions, with a collection of employees that are all either bored, angry, aloof, incompetent, anxious or suffer from one of a hundred other maladies or neurotic manifestations. No doubt this sort of work environment will be familiar to most.

It would be convenient to say that this is just another movie about how the corporate work environment drains us of our humanity, but Office Space offers us much more. The mindless bureaucracy, doing work solely to satisfy some inane process (PTS Reports), the sense of detachment from reality is eerily reminiscent of a Kafka novel. Lundberg, the boss, who is completely ... Read More

- "Why should I change, he's the one that sucks"
Hard to believe that this movie was a box office disaster (considering it's directed by Mike Judge), but over the years, I think the cult following is right. Yeah, I'm no office worker (You think I work in the office?), but hey, it doesn't take a genius to know how tedious and _______ BORING! life like Peter's is (if you still think it's not tedious, think more, idiot). This is a sometimes hilarious, sometimes serious, sometimes feel-good, loony, morally awesome, movie. I like the way it just starts when the movie comes on, it sets the whole tone for the movie. Right from that, I knew this movie was going to rule.

The plot revolves around a particular software company called Initech, and it's as faceless as can be. At least from the outside. The characters on here are unique and both encomapny some very familiar stereotypes. Well, maybe the characters are someone you have seen or met before, but ... Read More

This is a perfect movie to watch while compiling your TPS reports. It would be just GREAT if everyone bought this movie on Blu-Ray!

- I am writing this from the standard grey office cubical.
This movie is Sort of a real world Dilbert. All the office environments that we have to deal with are exaggerated. This includes the office characters. Getting out reports, overtime and downsizing.

Current events mixed with old tales and office lure mix to create one of the best comedies around. This film along with the red Swingline stapler had achieved cult status.

As I look around (and stand up) I can see all the personalities depicted in this movie. If anyone wanted to see a movie that mimics real life this one is it and maybe "Joe Versus the Volcano" (1990). This is much more real than "9 to 5" (1980).

Just a moment while I expand my cube. (*&*%$#%$&*)

There, now where was I? Oh yes, Jennifer Aniston shows her flash.

It is interesting that the film was made in Austin and Dallas where I am writing this. It must be a sign on some sort. ... Read More
