Rating: Summary: Excellente Review: Though I don't work in an office environment, I still have to put up with idiots everyday. This movie is right up my alley. This movie plays on current stereotypes and cubicle horror stories to make you laugh until you wet yourself (and I almost did). I bought this movie for my father as a birthday present becasue he does slave away in a cubicle and hates his idiot boss. However, amidst all the coffee and desperation, most of the jokes could be expected a mile away, but that didn't stop me from watching it again and again.
Rating: Summary: A KEEPER, NOT A RENTAL!!! Review: My boyfriend and I picked it up as a rental, and didn't know much about it except that Jennifer Aniston and that "Swingers" guys was in it! But it was HILARIOUS! Anyone and everyone can relate to the story. We have since made our friends watch it and everyone is rollin'!!
Rating: Summary: Whaats happening? Yeaah, that would be great Review: Outstanding. And I don't enjoy other works of Mike Judge like Beavis and Butthead. This movie provides a much more subtle context for its humor. The facial expressions and interaction between co-workers are unconventioal and hilarious. See this with friends and the quotes will flow for weeks.

Rating: Summary: Hysterical! Review: I recently watched this movie with a bunch of classmates and couldn't stop laughing. It became the center for jokes in the class room (The people to cake ratio is to small) and of course the red swingline. Milton is awesome! he rocks! and horray for him being able to do what everyone wanted to do.
Rating: Summary: make sure you know where the pause button is on the remote Review: Because you will be laughing so hard, you are going to have to take breaks while watching this film. It is hands down the funniest movie I have EVER seen. "Yeah, I'm doin' the drywall up there at the new McDonalds." 'nuff said. watch it.
Rating: Summary: Milton Rules! Review: I recently bought this comedy at the store just due to its low price. A comedy about working kind of sounded interesting coming from the maker of "Beavis And Butthead" and "King Of The Hill" sounded like a good idea. I expected to laugh out loud and did, but not because of the plight of hero Peter, but rather the antics of Milton, the mumbling officer worker that never stands up for himself. The story actually focuses on Peter (played by Ron Livingston), who is an office worker struggling through his cubicle-encompassing job at Initech. His life is a mess with a girlfirend that cheats on him, the woman of his dreams (played by Jennifer Anistion) not noticing him and having to put up with a monotone boss. After being hypnotized, he realizes he's had enough. He starts showing up less at work and when he does he just goofs off. He also makes a successful relationship with the girl of his dreams. Peter also manages to move up in the ranks with his new neglect for work. Even with all this Peter is unhappy because to of his hard working friends get laid off. They hatch a plan to rip off Initech and make a few bucks in the process. Of course, chaos follows. This main story is good for many jokes, but Peter as the normal guy that goes out of control isn't as funny as the characters that are thrown in for even more comic relief. One example is the construction worker friend of Peter that lives next door. Deitrich Bader (from "Drew Carey") is to funny as Peter's loud fishing buddy Lawrence. Joanna (Jennifer) is the best female presence in this mostly male cast and her "minimal requirement" waitress is so real and funny. But the best is by fair Milton, who stutters stammers through the film as the forgotten worker that is always being pushed in a corner and treated like garbage. While the film's story gets kind of slow as Peter tries to heal things over with his girlfriend and restore the stolen money, keep your eye on Milton whose abuse is taken to new heights ("But I didn't get a piece of cake last time."). He really makes me laugh out loud and takes over the movie. Just to see him in action is magic. See the movie for the incredible performance from Stephen Root as Milton. Where's his oscar?
Rating: Summary: Aaaabbbboosssuullluuttteellyyy Teerrrifffiiiccccc! Review: This was definately one of the funniest movies that I've seen all year. If you work in an office you will laugh your head off. This movie focuses on everyday things we deal with in an office, from broken fax machines to talkative co-workers.
Rating: Summary: Great Film Review: This an amazingly smart satire about cubecle workers. Mike Judge (Beavis and Butthead) has created a moder time classic, with well drawn characters and a hillarious plot. This movie is Dilbert meets Citizen Kana. Highly recomended
Rating: Summary: Best Comedy In Years! Review: I finally had to buy this movie! It's the funniest thing I've seen in years. Peter Gibbons (ron livingston) is an every-man's hero and his don't-care attitude was so refreshing. You'll walk away wishing you had his moxy. Every single character was believable, hysterical, and true to life if you've ever worked in an office environment. My fave line..."I never liked paying bills, I don't think I'm going to do that either"
