Office Space is a great movie. The comedy is intelligent and the situations are true to life. The film reminds me a lot of Ghostbusters, in that you can tell that there was real creative force behind the jokes in this film. If you've ever had a dead end job you can easily relate to this movie. I remember going to see this movie back in 1999 with some friends and we all thought it was going to be some lame flick (because it had such stupid title), but it was the only thing that wasn't sold out so we gave it a go. Everyone was blown away by this film which turned out to be one of the sleepers of '99. The characters work in cubicles with careers that are (to them) pretty boring, but they have flippant attitudes towards to life and speak like they all are grads of big 10 schools. The boredom of their life can't be made up for by being a weekend warrior, they need genuine happiness. The film explores the characters quest in what is one of my favorite comedies of all time.
