A comedy written and directed by Mike Judge.A man works at an office and hates his job. He goes to see a hypnotherapist who dies while hypnotizing him. The man with the office job is left in a constant state of relaxation and begins to act impulsively.This film is very popular, but actually pretty good. Here's a first: I get the humor! My favorite scene involves the fate of the accursed fax machine. The characters are stereotypical, but seem to represent a good cross-section of real people. The plot is really good and so is the style. I'm rating this good on entertainment value.
A comedy directed by Mike Judge.A man and woman are frozen and wake up 500 years in the future, when all of humanity has become stupid.This is supposed to be funny, but it's too true to laugh at. Most of humanity really is that stupid. The omnipresence of advertising is one of the main themes of this film and that is already a fact. The tattoo on everyone's arms is an alarming thing to see for anyone who knows anything about bible prophecy. It's the mark of the beast that no one can buy or sell anything without. One funny thing to think about is that in this fictional future, water is only used to flush the toilet and hence, would be unfluoridated. I'm rating this film poor because it trivializes some major issues.
