This is a short, improvisational film, a "mockumentary," in the style of the many successful Christopher Guest comedies. With a clever story and some generally funny character actors, the film is memorable without being a retread. Editing is very good. This film was done as an independent project, but it has a fairly professional look and sound. Particularly good are Paul Bunch's well-drawn frustrated desk jockey and Josephine Angelini's appealingly clueless secretary. Michael Roberts shows tremendous range, and improvises some really funny lines with less overall camera time. The slightly psychotic building maintenance character offers laughs as well. The boss may have been stinky, but this film isn't. See it more than once.
