For those of us who have worked in an office environment, this is a perfect movie. The characters are dynamic and have their own individual personalities. The struggle is one man's idea that he shouldn't have to work anymore. He and his three friends decide to run a virus on the company computer which would deduct money into an account...however, something goes wrong. This is for sure a 5 out of 5 movie. Although the critics weren't thrilled on it's release, it has become a cult classic and favorite among Generation X. Milton...He is one of the craziest characters of all time. He loves his stapler very much. Remember that! Office Space is a must for any DVD collection! ...Another review by Sublime Boutique.
How can you not love this movie? For me, it was one of those movies that the first time I saw it I didn't quite get the humor as I was watching it because of the mellow "humdrum" office style feel it has to it, but it quickly grew on me. So many parts that are great conversation pieces. I have since watched it many many more times and have not grown tired of it. Timeless, honest humor. Just perfect. And Ron Livingston really pegged the part of Peter. No one else could've played it so well, but it may have typecast him... Now I can't see him as anyone but Peter Gibbons.
Destine to become a 'cult classic'. Anyone who has ever worked in a business office could easily relate to the characture's in this movie. Maybe a bit over-dramatized, but still very relatable to real life. Although it's just a bit part, Stephen Root is hilarious as 'Milton'. This is a movie that you can watch again and again and never get tired of. Be warned - There is about a split-second of 'Boobies', so if you have children bare that in mind.
The only problem was how the "wide screen" version displayed. I saw a wide version, but it was not reaching the edges of the TV screen. It appeared as if it had a thick black border all the way around the image. Odd.
