Office Space - Old School Movie Review #1


This is a movie that I have seen before, but it had been a while. The friends that we watched it with had just watched it the night before, but it was the only movie that we could get 10 people to agree to watching and it was getting late!

This movie is so great to me because it is so subtle. The characters each have little quirks that make them memorable and the plot is so random. A guy hates his job and goes to a hypnotist. The hypnotist puts him in a trance and then has a heart attack before he can take him out of the trance. So, said guy goes home and sleeps and decides he is never going to go to work again. It is just so funny because again- we have all been there. Most people do not love their job...as the movie poster indicates. Most people are too afraid to do what they really want to because it might be against the social norm e.g. eat the first piece of cake instead of passing along, asking out your waitress...etc.
