 | EASILY the best corporate comedy ever written, hands down. I venture to say it is one of the funniest comedies ever put on the silver screen. The satirical spoofs in this movie are done so well that I literally laugh in my cubical, relating characters in the movie to ACTUAL people at work. Even if you are not one who buys DVDs, (like myself) this is easily a must have. The show gets funnier everytime you watch it...especially when you can walk through those corporate doors M-F and see it in action on a regular basis in real-time, in real-life, on a daily basis in some shape or form. You really have to see this movie at least three times to appreciate its brilliance. |

 | Do not buy this DVD if you are an aspect ratio purist. I believe this is one of those tragic cases where the FULLSCREEN version was cropped to create a fake widescreen version (as was done with Terminator 3) . You are getting a twice cropped film here, and thus, much less picture than the already cropped fullscreen version.
This "widescreen" version has chopped off heads in every shot and in a couple of scenes the characters are chopped off from left to right. NOT WHAT THE DIRECTOR FILMED.
The news is that Office Space Special Edition is due out in late 2005. Wait for it....HOPEFULLY it will be in the true theatrical release aspect ratio. |

 | Relevant topic, great natural acting, funny, this movie has it all, almost. My big problem is with the soundtrack. The low-class rap garbage does not match the screen action or the themes in anyway, and only cheapens the film. |

 | This is a very funny movie, we make reference to it a lot at work like "What would you do with a million bucks?" The movie is just very funny -- it fades at the end a bit, but it is still good stupid fun. Also,if you have ever had to suffer really stupid jerk managers at work you will more than likely find the movie very funny. |

 | Ok, I worked for a major HMO last year. I was also confined to a small gray cubicle for 8 hours a day. And after watching Office Space, I quit a month later. Coincidence? Maybe. But it was like watching my life unfold on screen! Having 4 bosses "remind" you about a tiny mistake that doesn't really matter, the doggone fax machine that is your sworn enemy, and of course the office FREAK, who you know is gonna someday show up to the work place armed! This movie has it all, and it's hilarious! So, if you get a case of the mondays, call in sick, and watch this movie! |
