Office Space

I first watched this is my goverment class in high school and I didnt get the film, as well as not having any interest in watching it. Then after knowing more about Mike Judge, I watched it during the pandemic and it now made sense as I was viewing it as an adult in his thirties instead as a high school student who just turned 18. The time that I rewatched it happened was when a year later many people quit their jobs in the summer of 2021 after realizing that they dont visualize themselves continuing with their careers that they spent most of their adult lives in and replaced it with doing whatever brings them joy. Ive told people Ive had conversations with about the labor shortage that Its Office Space in real life. Plus Jennifer Aniston is fantastic in the film.

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

This is the most funny, quirky, intricate Office Comedy you will ever find. And its only 89 minutes. Every character is drop to the ground hilarious. The story is actually believable. Every office employee will scratch their head and say Yeah...if I could do that Id be outta here tomorrow! So...yeeeeeeeeahh get this movie!

I wish more movies were made like this.. a classic. Very funny. Highly recommended

Comedy was point on.

It is becoming a cult-classic film with memorable lines that I hear myself quoting quite a lot. Everyone could use a little more flair.. ;). And who doesnt need a red Swingline stapler?! Purchased it so I can watch it whenever. I definitely give it Two Thumbs Up!

1999s “Office Space” runs the absurdity of white collar employment straight up the corporate flagpole. Few satires are as timeless and widely relatable as this ode to the dehumanized workforce warrior, as its magically sketched characters and ingenious dialogue endure as reference points in water cooler conversations across the land. Inside the soul-destroying Initech Corp., wage victims grind away. Peter Gibbons (Ron Livingston) hates his job as much as he fears losing it, until a meeting with an “occupational hypnotherapist” frees his mind: Peter decides hes no longer going to work all that much. Yet after repeatedly coming in late or not showing up at all, two workforce consultants peg Peter as a “straight shooter” who “has upper management written all over him.” Since the films release, pre-pandemic office cubicle environments had largely given way to open-space layouts. But while the furniture has been rearranged, the truisms of “Office Space” remain fully in play. A legendary comedy movie by any definition. - (Was this review of use to you?

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.

Still the gold standard for office satire. Some things really never change.

I have to admit Id never heard of OFFICE SPACE before it turned up as a plug on an Amazon e-mail. Now Ive seen it, Im glad I gave in to the temptation. This is an office comedy for sure, vaguely related to the celebrated 9 TO 5 but without the obvious star-power. In the same way, the comic situations can easily be identified as something uncomfortably close to the truth of the matter. (I suspect similar scenarios are played out daily down at the local City Hall...) Ron Livingston carries the picture with his good looks and a deft comedic style. Its a pity (maybe) that OFFICE SPACE arrived a little too late on the scene for Ron to team up with the major league of Tomlin, Fonda & Parton!
