PROBLEM: ADAM SANDLER + MOVIE = REALLY BAD CRAP . 2 bad movies on 1 dvd ***YAWN*** NEX

SOLUTION: NEG

PROBLEM: "The ratio of people to cake is too big....." . ...says the mumbling Milton (my favorite character). The characters and their odd mannerisms made this film a success, in my view. One of my coworkers lent me this movie, promising me that I'd like it - he was right. It is both funny and tragic, though a bit exaggerated (but it's a MOVIE, where life circumstances do not have to be totally realistic).     Most people can relate to Office Space, even if they don't have a cubicle-based job. I happen to have a cubicle-based job, though I recently moved from a rather large cubicle to an office, which I share with another coworker (there is a gray cubicle wall dividing it). It's not so bad though.  Anyway, the main character, Peter Gibbons, lacks motivation in his career and is fed up with a number of business practices. But he doesn't quit his job - he just stops working.  Doing nothing is his ideal life.    The rap music is a nice touch.    Now back to my favorite character, Milton, who repeatedly says that he "could set the building on fire" whenever things get too rough.  He is pathetic yet likeable, and I felt sorry for him when he didn't get any cake at the party. Everyone keeps passing it around, and he watches the cake get smaller and smaller until it is completely gone. And his desk is moved numerous times, which really irritates him. Eventually, he moves down to the basement, where it is dark and lonely.  His boss comes down to ask him to kill the cockroaches ("That would be terrific"), even though it's not Milton's job.  His distinctive "Excuse me..." protests are rarely heard. He is being used by the company, no one respects him, no one listens to him.  I'd burn the building down too

SOLUTION: POS

PROBLEM: GREAT SUMMARY OF CORPORATE CRIME . Because the Enron scandal has become one of the biggest securities frauds in American history, this documentary sums up - in a nice little package - how organized and white-collar crimes are costly to society in both human and financial terms.  More importantly, this documentary shows how the American criminal justice system responds to criminal careers of corporations.  As a result of the aforementioned, I use this audio-visual as a teaching tool in my criminology class and highly recommend it to professors and students alike.

SOLUTION:
POS
