Featured reviews
The movie began on a promising note, impressing me initially. However, my expectations were soon shattered as it took a sharp turn towards absurdity and silliness. The film lacked substance, relying heavily on mindless humor, which only caters to those seeking brainless entertainment. Amidst scattered comedic moments, the movie was riddled with excessive violence and a chaotic narrative that left me baffled. It felt like a mishmash of disjointed ideas, leaving me wondering how I managed to endure the entire experience. Rather than a well-crafted film, it felt like a comical apocalypse, stretching the boundaries of silliness to the extreme.
It's aver crude idea, to drive a company mad by giving canned drugs to them. After consuming the drugs, the emploees of a weapon manifacturing company go wild and murder without border in the office. Three friends try to escape from their drug driven colleagues in a 5 staged special secured building with all means they got left. It turned out to be a really gory movie. If you are able to cope with a funny gore movie, you might watch this. I did like the satire on weapon selling companies. On that base, I can have a laugh on it. Beside the lousy CGI's, which is not really irritating, it is a movie to watch with good fellows while having a Bud - or some other beer. But compared to all other movies in the world, it isn't a milestone for sure. Watch it, if you want some silly fun with gory parts. A recommendation for friends of movies like 'Tucker and Dale vs. Evil' or 'Zombieland'.
A young man working for a weapon factory,
starts to wonder if something is wrong, when his
co-workers starts to act strangely, especially
after drinkin a certain energy drink.
Office Uprising is a fun zombie flick, not necessarily
well made, based on lack of good acters, but
they make that up with good script and direction.
This film tells story of an office worker for a weapons manufacturer, whose co-workers are turned into zombies by an energy drink.
The film actually starts out not too bad and quite funny. However once the horror/zombie bit comes in, it falls apart. The horror effects are good. Plenty of blood and gore but it gets a bit dull. Some of the effects are pretty poor. The jokes fall flat. There is little action. Its not really that scary or gory.
Although it was well acted, I had no connection to the characters. I really didn't care by the end what happened to them.
It is a shame as there is some great acting and the first bit of the film shows promise. It would probably been better if it had been kept as a straight office comedy rather than trying to make it a horror.

This movie is exactly what I expected going into it. It's got a straightforward premise where these guys are locked in at a office building with zombie-like workers. I like the premise. I also liked the chemistry between the Brenton Thwaite, Jane Levy and Karan Soni. Zachary Levi as the villain worked. There's violence and blood if you're into that type of movies.
