Mike Judge ruled the ‘90s with
his animated hits Beavis and Butt-Head and King of the Hill. For
his first live-action project, Judge drew on his brief career at a
Silicon Valley tech firm and his Milton animated shorts to create
Office Space, a satire of white-collar workplace life. With an
ensemble cast and a gangsta rap-infused soundtrack, Office Space
spoke to Gen-Xers who found themselves caught up in the dot-com
boom of the late nineties. Though the film, saddled with an odd
promotional campaign, wound up getting downsized at the box office,
like so many other films of the year, Office Space lived on as cult
classic after repeated airings on Comedy Central and became one of
Fox’s top-selling DVDs. But, twenty years later, does the film with
the tagline “Work Sucks” still work? Or does it
suck?
