REVIEWS Review by Gantgirl (posted on 21-Jul-2007) This movie proves it's possible to be hilarious and witty without being gross or profane. It's unforgettable in so many ways - who can forget the neurotic man with the red stapler, or Orlando Jones as a spaced-out magazine salesman, or the guy swearing at the printer which is giving a stupid error code which we're all seen but never understood? And what about the idiot bosses that most people have had at one time - Lumberg, who walks around with coffee and never actually produces work, or Jennifer Aniston's boss at the resturant ranting at her for not having enough stupid buttons (fringe) on her uniform? Ron Livingston was perfect as the burned-out computer guy who rebels. I read somewhere that when the movie came out, many people were going to Office Max to buy a red stapler! The humor is subtle, the script is brilliant, and everyone will recognize the characters as people they've known and worked with!
This movie is a must see.
