"Burns' comic sensibility is patently absurd but his message is pathologically frightening." - Ed Gonzalez

Brisk and entertaining but not without problems. This one mostly takes place in over the course of a single ordinary "lunch" break, but it doesn't feel like any of the characters have any backstory prior to the start of the movie. And I'm always kind of annoyed when "workplace" comedies are completely devoid of any hint about what all these characters are actually meant to be doing. The main disappointment is the meaningless shrug of an ending. Still, it's pretty funny for the most part.

An original movie that is ruined by attempts at being too quirky and too "random". I don't regret watching it, but I've got to regret this movie's wasted potential. It could have been much better.

Pretty entertaining. The idea stays with you, even if you can't remember the name of the film.

Reminded me of a Canadian version of Office Space.

I did not like this. I tried, some moments I enjoyed, but in the end I just banged my head against the seat in front of me.

A bit too uneven. It was interesting at least.

I really enjoyed this; quirky but not too much, and a fun premise. How can one not smile at several characters that undergo life-changing experiences during one lunch break?
