| VHS Tape Description 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 |

Great movie, a must buy!!! If you work in an office, this movie is for you. A must buy and keep.
From one cube rat - code monkey to the remainder of the breed! OK, so I have lived the commute from Concord to Mt View to reside in a cube and write swill code for a series of untalented Lumburgs, so I may not be qualified to rate this movie...it is too close to reality. IT IS FANTASTC! My sides ache, and my soul soars, I have worked with everyone in this movies over the past 15 years. I wish I had written thus story because I have lived it, because it is a classic that will live for ever. Buy it, own it, and when your finally ready to let go of it bury it in a time capsule.
Fantastic Movie. This is a great movie that was made by the creator of Beavis and Butthead, Mike Judge. Mike Judge even played a part in this movie as Jennifer Aniston's boss.
This movie is about a man (Peter) who gets fed up with his job and is sick of wasting his time in an office and he just wants to do what a human is "meant to do". Which is nothing. He encourages other workers ( Samir and Michael ) to both do as he does. Eventually they all work together to steal money from the company. The plan backfires, and they decide to pay the money to the company. However, the building burnt down and that was the end of the business. Samir and Michael get new jobs at a similar place, while Peter becomes a construction worker. This is a great movie that has quite a bit of humor, and very good story line. Anyone who hasn't seen this definitely should.
P.S. The beginning of the movie is exceptionally funny. :) |
