The room"Corner Office" (2022, 100-mins, PG-13, $0 boxoffice, D/Joachim Back) attracts you since Jon Hamm ("Orson") stars and he finds a room that he's told doesn't exist. This entire film is deception. First, Orson has a psychosis. The room objectively does not exist, it's a micro-utopia he's carved out in his mind, and it's not even a corner office. This should've been sold as a half-hour Twilight Zone episode. It has no business being feature length. The writers and director have little to no experience, and whatever there is, is in shorts. Jon Hamm is wasted in the lead, he's only attached to this for name recognition. There's so much dull, uninspired narration that you could treat this as an audiobook; seriously, there's practically no need for it to have visuals.

Corner Office held the potential to extract more from its premise. However, unlike the other debut I've watched earlier, this director can't help the stagnation of its plot, the pacing becomes unwieldy, and it lacks full realization, losing a lot of vigor along the way and continually floundering, though it never quite falls apart in my opinion, but all of its sharp commentary falls flat, so in the end it leaves no lasting impression.… Expand

complete garbage. I'd have rather watched paint dry. some sort of message that corporate culture is bad and people would like a better space to occupy within their offices. yea, no s--- sherlock.
