It's funny because it is so much like real life.
We all have lived it.

Not until you put on all your pieces of flair, OP.

It's a good late-90s time capsule.

I love this movie. It's one of the few that I own, in hard copy and on Amazon Prime as well.
I didn't watch it until at least 2005. It matched up to ALL of my work experiences.
I have used - many times - several of the key pieces of dialogue in daily life/living. It still makes sense in many instances. Yes, I do quote it sometimes.

25 years later, and the film still holds up really well, even with the dated elements (the Y2K bug plot).
The only problem is the ending is kind of ... whatever. The office burning down feels like Mike Judge didn't know how to end the story.

Still fun to watch as this cutie pie with that accent wins some money by knowing "Office Space" trivia.

How great is character actor Stephen Root?
I just watched a fun but little seen indie from last year called Lousy Carter where he played a German psychiatrist. He was perfect. He was perfect in Office Space.
He's terrific in everything I've seen him in.

He was also going to be the recipient of harvested organs in Get Out.

The dorky white guy listening to hardcore rap then locking his car when a black guy walks by is too good!

r23, because he broke up with a horse with a Post-It note.

I liked his show Loudermilk. Ron was scruffy, but still doable.
He was best in Band of Brothers.

Same here; I had a boss that was obsessed with fonts so the beginning of the movie when he was being criticized for changing the fonts was too triggering for me. More than any particular line, I could just relate to the soulless of it all: the office, the restaurant and the bland/passive-aggressive corporate speak

Stephen played the world's saddest vampire in True Blood. This movie and Idiocracy are two of my favorites of Judges'.
