Plot:
Comedic tale of company workers who hate their jobs and decide to rebel against their greedy boss.

Peter Gibbons just can't seem to catch a break. His girlfriend is cheating on him, he has an obnoxious neighbor, and he's completely miserable with his job as a small cog in a company called Initech. Then he visits a hypnotherapist, who dies just after putting Peter into a state of complete bliss. Free of worrying about making a living, he no longer feels the need to keep his job, just as the company is going through a massive downsizing. However, his new attitude only makes him more valuable in the company's eyes, and his friends Michael and Samir are fired instead. Together, they scheme to plant a virus inside Initech's computer system that will pull money into their own account. IMDB

Review:
One of the best, funniest movies I have ever seen! The entire movie is funny, but there are specific parts that are.. hilarious. Like, the rap singing in the beginning, the trouble with names, flare, and the printer/fax machine. Everyone needs to see this movie. The actors do such a great job. "Riiigght...." This is a movie you definately need to see.
