Head Office

About This Movie

Head Office is one of those quirky comedies that dives into the absurdities of corporate culture. You’ve got this senator's son, who really doesn’t seem to earn his way up the ranks—just kind of coasts on his connections. It’s a bit of a satirical take on privilege and ambition. The pacing is pretty brisk, which helps in keeping the humor flowing, though some bits feel a little disjointed. The chemistry between the leads is decent; he’s awkward and she's strong-willed, especially with her protest against the company’s dodgy practices. There’s a charm in the practical effects, mostly just typical of the era, but they work. Not groundbreaking, but there’s something amusing about its take on big business.
