Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

quitwhileyouareahead This is one of those movies that, at least to me, sucks you in quickly. The actors are familiar and you are immediately drawn to them whether you like their characters or not. I haven't seen Parker Posey that much but she is excellent as the overbearing but sexy boss. The lead male role is also excellently played and will remind you a bit of John Krasinski. Good writing shows a realistic slice of corporate life including the chemistry that leads to office affairs. It does have an "Office" feel about it and does go over the top at times but it is entertaining. I think the ending could use some work but an overall good way to spend 90 minutes. Also, if nothing else grabs you, the soundtrack is great.Give it 10 minutes and if you don't feel the draw, turn it off.

KineticSeoul Watching this flick was sorta like watching "The Office" except the characters are unlikable and it's just not as funny. The plot is about a guy who has a family of his own and works for a company but a woman boss takes over as the head of the company. And the movie is basically about the dude coping with and having a relationship with his female boss who is having a midlife crisis and is selfish and crazy. And most of the humor comes from her going bonkers, acting crazy and spazzing out. And those parts I chuckled a few times. It's not bad for a rent but you won't be missing all that much if you pass on this one.5.6/10

Paul Keister I wasn't really sure what I thought of this movie until the day after I saw it - which for me is one hallmark of a great film. This is a movie that appears to be one thing, a cynical office comedy, but ultimately turns out to be something completely different, a much deeper and satisfying look at contemporary American life.When we first meet the Susan Felders, masterfully played by Parker Posey, we are tempted to see her as a larger than life and quite outrageous character. But by the end of the film, we get the clear realization that everything we've seen fits neatly within the prescribed limits of modern corporate norms.The story is a kind of coming of age story for the protagonist Pete Cozy, competently played by Eric Mabius. It's interesting to note that Pete's struggle to find his place in the world during his 30's illuminates a kind of extended adolescence that has become a standard part of modern adult culture.In many ways this movie reminds me of Up in the Air, which was one of my favorite films of 2009. It covers some of the same themes as that movie, but the characters are drawn with more subtlety here and the situations are more ordinary. Both films provide a commentary on modern American social structures with the corporation as the central gathering point. Whereas Up in the Air presented characters of mythical and almost melodramatic scope, here we see nitty-gritty scenes with very recognizable characters and motivations.All in all, a very nice film.

Mark Larsen I did not expect anything, just watching it by accident. It kind of starts slowly and it does not turn into an action movie, but it was really good! It is not a blockbuster, more like an independent movie, but it was funny - at the same time it makes you think... What is important for you in your life? Money or happiness? All actors were great... it could be a real story. Maybe that girl who plays the boss is a little bit over acting, but maybe she has to. As you can see I do normally not review movies and I am not good at it, but I just found it unfair that this great movie gets such a low rating! So go and watch the movie and judge it by yourself. You will not waste your time, trust me.
