Office Space is a brilliant, smart, funny and very entertaining movie, it's well acted and I had a great time while I was watching it, it's just a care free comedy that you can watch at any time, trust me, you won't just have fun, you'll laugh out loud, like I did, and not just once. I think you should really watch it, it really follows the kind of life that some workers have, they hate their bosses and they hate their jobs and this movie shows that might be always a solution. Sow, if you haven't seen this movie, I think you should, because this is defenitly a comedy classic and I'm a comedy movies lover and I know what's a real comedy movie and you have approvement that this is a real comedy movie, it's funny and it's very entertaining, one of the best movie that you can watch at any time and laugh a bit hard. Fantastic movie.

Mike Judge directs this movie, and very well, he did a fantastic job with the characters and the movie, he's really a great director. Ron Livingston takes the lead role, he was good at it, he starts off with a not that funny role but then he slightly turns into a care free character that make us laugh, Ron is known from my sixth favorite movie, wich is Dinner for Schmucks, he is also known from Going the Distance, Adaptation, The Cooler, Swingers and some other movies. Jennifer Aniston defenitly does not play the best role of her career, her role wa sjust average, she was no big deal, she was basicly just fine, Jennifer is known from my favorite movie, wich is Horrible Bosses, she is also known from my seventh favorite movie, wich is Just Go With It, she is also known from one of my twenty favorite movies, wich is The Switch, she is also known from Marley & Me, Rumor Has It..., Friends With Money and some other movies. Sow, the rest of the cast it's not full with any super stars, but it's full with actors that can make you laugh at any time, there was good perfomances and I won't forget the perfomance by Stephen Root, wich was just fantastic. Overall, I just loved this cast. Great cast (7.5/10).

Peter Gibbons (Ron Livingston) is a worker at Initech who just ahtes his job and his boss. Every day of his life is worst than the previous day of his life, wich means that every day is the worst day of his life. After his ex make him go with her visit a hypnotherapist, he talks about his miserable life and the Dr. hypnotizes him. In the next day, he just decides that he doesn't care about nothing and he will want to keep the rest of his life doing nothing and missing his work. He starts off flirting Joanna (Jennifer Aniston), the waitress that he admired for a few time. HIs boss Bill Lumbergh hires two consultants to downsize, Peter goes to an interview and after discovering that his two best friends that work at the office, Michael Bolton (David Herman) and Samir (Ajay Naidu), he tells them that and the three of them come up with the idea of getting payback, by creating a virus that will give to Peter's account fractions of cents that in some days, will turn into thousands of dollars.(What I thought about the plot) I just loved the script, it's in a way simple, but it's not too simple, I really liked it and it worked really well here, Mike Judge is not just a great director, he's also a great writer. Fantastic plot (8.0/10).

Soundtrack, well, besides the other great things that they provide you in this movie, they also provide you a great soundtrack, wether you like it or not it's not of my bussiness, but I can tell yuo that I really enjoyed this movie's soundtrack, trust me, it's really good, it's one of the m any good things that this movie has. Great soundtrack (7.5/10).

Besides all that, I am now going to tell you what I thought about this movie. First of all, men, women, people, movie lovers, comedy lovers, you all got to watch this amazing movie, it's really good, it's perfect on almost every element, I loved everything about it and I laughed about almost everything about it, the dialogues, the details, like the first scene with cars and the printers, the Swingline thing and the Milton and his bad luck and I loved especially the interviews with the Bobs, it was hilarious. Sow, if you are a movie lover, you have to watch it and if you are a comedy movie lover, what are you waiting for? Overall, this is a fantastic movie that I found to be amazing, it has a great cast, a fantastic script, a great soundtrack and it's overall a very entertaining and engaging movie, I really liked it, I will always remember it and I can consider it to be one of my favorite movies. Office Space: 8.0/10. Fantastic.

Fantastic movie. Very recommended movie. Grade: B.
