	Author	Review
United States	Michael Rechtshaffen The Hollywood Reporter	"An extremely funny white-collar satire filled with enough delightfully askew characters to pack a boardroom"	POS
United States	Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times	"The movie's dialogue is smart. (...) Judge, an animator until now, treats his characters a little like cartoon creatures. That works. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Stephen Holden The New York Times	"It has the loose-jointed feel of a bunch of sketches packed together into a narrative that doesn't gather much momentum"	NEU
United States	Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times	"Bristling with shrewd observation, inspired humor and all-around smarts"	POS
United States	Joe Leydon Variety	"Imagine a live-action version of the "Dilbert" comic strip with a touch of Hal Hartley's deadpan absurdism"	POS
United States	Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly	"Feels cramped and underimagined. I think Judge is capable of making an inspired live-action comedy, but next time he'll have to remember to do what he does in his animated ones--keep the madness popping"	NEU
United States	Rita Kempley The Washington Post	"A knowing, somewhat slight, often hilarious sendup of cubicle culture."	POS
