Summary: "It wasn't a problem, until that no talent a**clown ..."
Review: If there was an award for the movie that stood up to the most repeated viewings, it would be this one. Mike Judge has made the kind of movie where the humor is sometimes dry, but is so incredibly smart that you tend to laugh again and again.

The characters in this movie are VERY memorable. Samir is probably the funniest side character in the history of cinema. I've never met an Indian (you know, from India) that was as tempermental as he is, but I hope I do someday. Michael Bolton is awesome. The guy is just totally down on life. The whole cast really shines. Diedrich Bader has a range to his talent that is just amazing (I didn't even recognize him the first two times I saw the film).

There really isn't a dull moment to the film. It was cut so well that it just flows from beginning to end. It's almost too short, but that's what makes it so easy to watch again. This is truly a movie that gets funnier the more you watch it. There are little nuances that you tend to notice after repeated viewings.

The only real drawback to the film, and the reason it loses a star, is the fact that the extras are really weak. There's nothing here that really heightens your appreciation of the film. I wanted to see deleted scenes (there had to be SOMETHING). I really want to give it five stars, but there are so many other great movies that package equally good extra features.

Don't let that deter you from buying the film. It was released to theaters with very little fanfare, so I doubt the studio will bother with a collector's edition. Buy this one now.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely Superb!
Review: This should be *required* viewing, for all IS/IT professionals.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I can watch this film 100 times and it's still great!
Review: if you have ever felt frustrated in your job, order this DVD and you will immediately start feeling better!!

I have over 1100 DVD's and this has to be in the top 5

trivia: even Jennifer Anniston was good in this movie (I never thought I would utter her name and good in the same sentence)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Thumbs Up
Review: Good movie and I'm sure most people who work in an office can relate to it. It is serious and funny at the same time, a rare combination. Definitely not the average comedy like I thought it would be. If you're friends with your co-workers, I suggest renting it and watching it with them. You'll all get a kick out of it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Waiting for More on DVD!
Review: The _MOVIE_ "Office Space" gets 5/5 stars in my book. Yeah, the plot is minimal, but the dialog and the characters are wonderful! However, I give the _DVD_ only 3/5 stars. This movie has so much potential for an enhanced DVD experience, but there's little in the way of extras. The trailer is included, but that's about it. Some interactive features, director's notes, or how about the _original_ "Office Space" animation that focused on Milton!! I'd love to get both in one package. So overall, 4/5.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: -
Review: This is simply the funniest most real-life comedy about the truly funny life of those of us who really work in an office!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Some of the funniest scenes, with an overall bland plot
Review: I love this movie. It has so many individual scenes that are hilarious. The overall plot and story aren't the greatest, but I've found most people can over look this.

This movie is rated R, and I think its one of the tamest R movies I've seen. There is brief nudity and a fair amount of swearing (mainly in rap music). However, the R rating may be for the best since I don't think anyone under the driving age will think this movie is all that funny. It's mainly work related and relationship comedy. I am thrilled to say there is no "bodily fluid" humor that has been in so many movies lately.

The DVD features are almost nonexistant.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Work Sucks, Office Space doesnt!
Review: Written and directed by Mike Judge, creator of Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hill, Office Space is based on the old Saturday night Live, ''Milton'' cartoons. The film stars Ron Livinstone as Peter Gibbons, and Jenniffer Anniston as Joanna. Peter, who is getting so stressed out by his job consults a dr. who hypnotizes him. But before he can take Peter out of the trance, he passes away making Peter temporarilly carefree. The next day despite his boss Lumberghs wishes, Peter skips work, and comes in on monday and takes no crap from his boss by destroying his cubicle walls playing Tetris while he's supposed to be working and putting dead fgish on the TPS reports, and after having a meeting with two hired consultants Peter gets a promotion, but finds out his two best friends are gettings fired. Peter and his friends hatch a plan to lose the company millions, but theyll soon regret it. Office Space also has some smaller parts by bigger celebrities like Orlando Jones, Stephen Root, and Diedrech Baker. If youve never seen Office Space you have to see it, simply put, Office Space is one of the funniest movies ever. So quit your job and watch Office Space.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: i still laugh
Review: Everyone in my large group of friends owns a copy of this movie. I have seen it upwards of 100 times and can actually write the entire script almost word for word. It is hilarious and makes so much sense if you've ever worked for a high tech corporation as a cubicle dweller. It could be about me when I worked at Reynolds&Reynolds

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: GREAT movie - average disc
Review: The 4 stars is an average of a 5-star movie and a 3-star DVD. It would have been spectacular to have included the animated Milton shorts as well. Perhaps this was a licensing issue.

On to the movie: EXCELLENT. If you've ever worked in an office, especially in a tech career, you'll be able to relate. All the characters and the plot line integrate seamlessly into one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Mike Judge is a genius, and one can see why both of his full-length animated shows were complete hits (Beavis & Butthead and King of the Hill). Another thing that I really thought was great is that this is set in Texas rather than your run-of-the-mill California tech company. Adds a little cultural flair to it, in my opinion.

This movie will completely sum up all your feelings about bosses, "happy people", consultants and damned office equipment! You will definitely NOT be disappointed. This is a must-own movie, with almost infinite rewatchability.
