Office Space

The movie Office Space was chosen as our miscellaneous review. Office Space, released February 1999, is the story of Peter Gibbons (Ron Livingston), a software engineer for Initech. Peter can not stand his job but must keep it in order to pay the bills. He is confronted by his eight bosses whenever he makes a mistake. Peter becomes so stressed that his girlfriend drags him to a hypnotist who she believes will be able to ease his stress at work. Upon being hypnotized, the hypnotist dies of a heart attack, leaving Peter in a complete state of apathy about his job, girlfriend, and bills. Peter quits going to work. He doesn’t quit, he doesn’t get fired, he just quits going. Office Space is a hilarious comedy about what happens when cubicle workers are pushed over the edge. The language used earns the movie an R rating.
