ABOUT THE FILM: Peter Gibbons (Ron Livingston) is a computer programmer working for a company called Initech. Every day, he and his co-workers suffer endless indignities and humiliations in their soulless workspace. For Peter, stuck in his cookie-cutter apartment with paper-thin walls, every day is worse than the one before it -- so every day is the worst of his life. To cap it off, Initech has hired a pair of efficiency experts to downsize the company. One Friday night, Peter's soon to be ex-girlfriend forces him to go to an occupational hypnotherapist to relieve work stress. While Peter is under hypnosis, the therapist keels over and dies. As he never snaps out of his hypnotic state, Peter has a new outlook on life. He is completely relaxed and enjoying life for the first time in a long time. On Monday, Peter skips work and sleeps in. He gets up for lunch and drives to a restaurant near his office and asks the waitress he's had a crush on, Joanna (Jennifer Aniston), on a date. When Peter stops by the office, he's called in to talk to the efficiency experts. Relaxed and friendly, Peter charms them as he
describes everything wrong with the office. Even as Peter now goes to work only as the mood strikes him, the experts decide he's management material and give him a promotion. Peter then convinces his friends to exact revenge on Initech. Not everything works out quite as planned. Office Space originated from director Mike Judge's 1991 animated short of the same name.
Rated R | In English | 90 minutes
