Office Christmas Party English Movie
So the party is wild. It's even funny in parts, especially how the client loses his teeth, and when Joseph and Mary sit with baby Jesus are seen sitting on the Game Of Thrones throne... But it's like watching someone's wedding video. You laugh politely, and even snigger at the wild moments, but are you really touched by anyone's plight?
You have no real connect with anyone in the movie at all: with the people who work there, the brother of the CEO (Jennifer Aniston) who heads the Chicago branch, the CEO herself is not a likeable person and the office stereotypes (the horrible HR lady, the sad secretary, the office siren, the Indian computer guy, loser hackers and the like), are just pathetic.
You
Of course, it takes a Russian night club with heavies to bring the whole team together (and you think it's too little too late, what with the parrot poop making you feel nauseous), but you really don't care what's happening to the office now that the party has been thrown open to everyone. We've seen sisters destroy the parents' home in Sisters (Amy Poehler, Tina Fey) and teenagers destroy a home with a wild party in Project X, so the destruction of the office does not come as a surprise. But you watch as if you were rubbernecking a highway train-wreck. Wait for it to show up on TV. By then perhaps you'll be wise and skip the film.
