This is an intelligent film about mental illness in a corporate setting - something most people today can really relate to I think. It is well done and is pretty artistic, but not super artistic or weird or anything like that. Its main character is a very intelligent and effective worker but suffers from some sort of mental illness, perhaps autism, which causes him to get caught up in his own thoughts and imagination, and the delusion that there is a secret corner office where conditions are perfect for doing absolutely perfect work...however his coworkers turn him into a pariah when they notice the signs of mental illness, in spite of the fact that they all have painfully obvious faults and flaws of their own that also bother him but which he doesn't shame them for. The entire movie is narrated by him as he speaks his mind to us, which is pretty interesting and full of intelligent thoughts that I think we can all relate to and will enjoy hearing. And a lot of his thoughts, and the situations he finds himself in are quite humorous....but in a very different and pretty odd way, which makes it quite new and novel, something I loved about it as I've gotten so tired of the same old stuff in movies and TV. Some of the humor is subtle but a lot of it made me laugh out loud. It's not a late night raunchy comedy, quite the opposite: it may seem a bit low key to some, perhaps slow at times, yet it is still very interesting and entertaining. Made moreso by the fact that it is also a bit sad at times, so it is not totally light hearted, but has an emotional message for us. I think this is a comedy film we all really need in this day and age. And also that John Hamm was a really good main character and portrayed his character perfectly. If you can relate to anything I've just said I urge you to watch it. It could make you both laugh and think about your own situation and condition in ways that you will find really enriching.
