movie review - Office Christmas Party

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2017.11.23

This is a delightful Christmas movie featuring an office Christmas party that gets a tad out of control. I identified with the Kia driver who was touchy on being quizzed on her choice of car, when she said, "It's a Kia, it's what God would drive." This movie is nothing more than it is, but it maintains the right tone and executes nicely.

Recommended.

Work is about a daily search for meaning as well as daily bread; for recognition as well as cash; for astonishment rather than torpor; in short for a sort of life, rather than a monday-to-friday sort of dying.
