Blind watch that paid off. All I knew were the directors (Amber Benson & Adam Busch).

Quirky office set romantic comedy (that will have some of you running for the hills) that starts as one thing but becomes something else entirely without changing its style. Amy (Angela Bettis yay!) is the object of affection for Brian. A fledgling office romance though is scuppered as secrets are revealed that may threaten everything.

Some nice writing and a few laughs but mostly I got off on the oddness here. Dry and pleasant.

A seemingly Office Space-like movie about an office romance quickly turns into something more... well... significant. Featuring the best performance by a photocopier in the history of Earth. A quirky little comedy that's worth your 90 minutes.

I'm having really good luck lately with blindly watching movies that Netflix recommends me.
If you've ever worked in an office, you probably know how it feels to be surrounded by aliens. This movie takes that literally as the protagonist finds out that his best friend is an alien. It's treated as not that big of a deal, but as the story progresses he finds out that his friend isn't alone. All of this is almost background to the office drones gossiping and fraternizing and going about their everyday lives.
This movie definitely feels like it could have taken place in the 3rd Rock From The Sun universe. Take that plus a bunch of (recognizable) d-list character actors, add in some great writing and a unique idea, and it makes for an excellent film.

Quirky and fun idea (let's call it Office Space-ship) but boring execution.

Goofy. Funny. Project Manager for Saving the Earth!

An odd little film that mostly gets by on quirk and ideas. The tone is pretty awkward, which is probably why I liked it. The tone is also pretty understated and slow, which is probably why I didn't love it.

Because they want to focus on the contrast between aliens and boring office life, the film is incredibly slow and quiet. The humor is almost entirely dialogue-based, so unless that's your thing, you could be in for a long movie.

The cast was my original reason for watching this, and Angela Bettis, James Urbaniak, Samm Levine, and Dave Allen are all pretty great (as is a voice cameo by Paul F. Tompkins). Jonathan M. Woodward didn't do much for me in the lead, but I guess the boring office drone is kind of the point of the movie, so that was probably intentional.

Overall it was an interesting plot that was worth watching, but it could have been better paced.

This might be one of the few films made this decade with the right dose of quirkiness to make it good without feeling trite or over-the-top.

Interesting, quirky, like The Office.

Starts out slow. Characters become more interesting as the movie goes on.
