It's a shame they are dumping this movie in 125 theaters.

I'm curious, even though I didn't think Office Space was a big deal.

The premise for this is one is outstanding. I loved Office Space, mostly because all of the characters reminded me of people I worked with.

I was talking about this last night over sushi with some friends. The buzz is out. Pretty wild that Focks dropped it. I wonder why? :confused: Hmm. Yeah.

I'm gonna check this out by hell or high water. It sounds interesting. (y)

It isn't playing anywhere in Philly. This is one movie I would pay to see in the theatre. But I'll probably have to snag it off the DVD rack. :(

I want to see it so bad but, nothing on the screen that I know of near by.

Lame.

I was a bit disappointed because I thought it would be as funny as Office Space and it wasn't. I love the beginning, but I could have done without the narration throughout the movie. I think the premise is fantastic, but the execution wasn't. It's probably difficult to make a great movie where most of the characters are absolute idiots. I loved the message, and the little things like people drinking from giant oversized extreme cups.

It's an entertaining watch that I plan on seeing again.

8.2

I just saw a review for this in my roommate's Stuff magazine. I was thinking about adding it to my Netflix queue. Hey, what have I got to lose, right?

I wasn't a huge fan of Office Space or anything, but I think Mike Judge is a pretty fun dude in the first place. I really dig on 'King of the Hill' and 'Beavis and Butthead' is always one most people agree on, or they totally hate it. Anyway, I dig those two, I thought Office Space was alright but overrated, so I think I'll check this out.

And randomly: My one roommate is a vocal major type guy here and he's warming up his voice right now. It's kind of funny sounding, but he's a great singer.

this about sums it up for me, though I wouldn't rate it an 8.2. I had lost most of my attention for it by the end, but like you said, the premise was great, and it's got it's moments. my dad thought it was hilarious, on the other, which baffles me.

I liked it alot, and I think it was sorta crippled by FOX. I would love to see a director's cut of this film.

It had a couple moments. But overall, I lost a few IQ points just from watching it.
