Review of Office Space (1992) by Jacob E — 22 Apr 2012
The 90s was a weird transitional period in film, and 1999 was one of the most packed years in film history. Basically, you're film didn't make money if it wasn't called "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace" or "The Matrix" or any other huge blockbuster that came out that year.
As a result, a few cult films have been born out of this year. "Office Space" stands as one of the best cult films of the 90s as a whole, and maybe one of the best cult comedies ever made. It's easily quotable and extremely relatable to anyone whose ever worked anything remotely like a job.
Heck, even if you know a little bit about office work, you're going to get a kick out of this. The movie does a good job immersing you in the hellish nature of working in cubicles during the film's first 10 minutes, setting up the rest of the absolutely hilarious film to come.
In spite of the path that the characters go down, it's not hard to sympathize with them. Filled to the brim with quotable dialogue and more than one scene that'll have you on the floor laughing (three words: printer, baseball bat), definitely worth watching.
