dangerously close to real life !!
In a nutshell, this movie is a wicked take on the wretched life of software engineers.I worked in the software industry for just one year and I am still able to relate whatever happens in this movie to my daily routine. The "PC-Load Letter" printer, the efficiency experts, the manager with the coffee mug.. man ! everything has been so accuratly portrayed ! Yes.. life as a software engineer does become monotonous so quickly that you will start searching for an psychiatrist, as Peter does.I did not like the ending of the movie and the little "techno-heist" that these people plan. The movie was funny and hilarious till the last few scenes and somehow became a little dull and boring at the end. Maybe the directors thought that it is compulsory to have some sort of a story in the movie... just for the sake of having it. (Not a good idea at all...)Gary Cole (Bill Lumbergh), Ron Livingston (Peter), Ajay Naidu (Sameer) and David Herman (Micheal Bolton !) have done an excellent job, while Jennifer Aniston doesn't impress much.. Maybe that's because of her script or something.Anyways, this is a great movie to own ...
