Product: Office Space (1999)
Rating: 5.0
PERFECT TIMING (the movie and this special version)...
I have to tell you, "Office Space" is not only one of THE greatest comedies of all time, but the movie itself remains relevant to this day and age, maybe even moreso than when it first came out in 1999...perhaps it was ahead-of-it's time??? That happens.Anyhoo, anyone who sees this comedy will be able to relate, ESPECIALLY if they have ever worked in a dead-end office job...sure, some of it goes over the top, but it's done in such an original and witty way, that it only adds to it's hilariousness, with memorable characters like poor Milton, LOL!!! None of this ever gets old, and the movie has an overabundance of quotable lines...the essential ingredients of a cult classic, just as I like it. The US version of the show "The Office" WISHES it could be as grand as "Office Space"...Now, this reissue ("with flair") is perfectly timed, with a wealth of even more good stuff, hilarious packaging, the works....now, if you go to BestBuy and get their exclusive special edition...this is really cool...it comes in a funny mini cardboard file cabinet (you have to see it to believe it), filled with useful and meaningful stuff...besides the nicely packaged DVD (in the file cabinet slipcase), you get a magnet photoholder, red pen + pencil set (with the movie logo on both), a mousepad designed like the uniforms at "Chotchkies" (overload of pins aka "flair"), a notepad with the "Initech" logo as a header, a coffee mug (with the boss and fave quote on it), and and AND????? Your very own RED STAPLER (with "Office Space" printed on top), woohoo!!!! Milton'd be jealous...and you don't have to annoy him or go down to his desert island to get one, YES!!!All in all, just getting this DVD itself is just a must-buy, with all the extras and classic movie (people will be quoting this and watching it regularly in 20 years, guaranteed), but getting this file cabinet is too good for words...meaningful to the movie AND useful (unlike the useless "Deluxe Edition" of "The Big Lebowski", which you're better off with just the reissued DVD itself...save the cash)!!!!
