Hmmm, yeah... we're gonna need you to go ahead and see this movie... yeah....
I have never seen this movie in the theaters. Neither has anyone else, as far as I know.My first viewing of this film came in early 2002. I was fed up with my job, and my employer (a large high-tech firm whose name I will not mention here) was announcing upcoming layoffs. I'd heard about Office Space from several friends of mine, and so I finally decided to rent it. By the time I returned it, I had watched it eight times.I've now seen it a total of twelve times, and it still makes me laugh. There is something in this movie for anyone who's endured a job in corporate America. I could strongly identify with Peter, the main character of the film, who is apparently trying to find himself. But really every character in this movie is worth remembering.I got the Special Edition with Flair as a recent Netflix rental. While I don't think the deleted scenes would have really added to the movie, there are a couple good ones, and the documentary about the making of the film is worth seeing.Not sure I'll ever actually buy this, but I will definitely rent it any time I'm feeling disgusted with work!
