Corporate Animals

It starts off a bit slow but if you can get through the first 15min, what you'll get is a dark comedy about what happens when a bunch of employees have to pull together to survive being trapped in a cave with their a-hole boss.

It's an offbeat, unusually funny movie filled with a couple one liners that'll make you chuckle. For a quiet night in with nothing else to watch, give this movie a bash.

Don't believe all the poor reviews you see of this film. This will become a cult classic like Office Space in a couple years time

The reviews for this movie from other people are scathing. People did not like this one. I did though, I had no clue it was directed by the director of the Creep films, and while this is no where near as good, it is still I'd say a quality flick. The comedy got some legit laughs, the bits of gore are great, and there is fun little animated sequence near the middle. If you like quirky movies check this one out, it's really not that bad.

I was very interested in seeing what Patrick Brice does next (Creep & Creep 2 are, in my opinion, awesome genre movies) and I'm not happy to say that "Corporate Animals" feels like a flop in each and every way.

Many reviews state the very same flaws and I can't find any better words, because they're right - it feels like a stretched out character sketch with a very shallow plot, uninventive sitatuations, most of the humor is based on archaic social stereotypes & all the social commentary in the script is old and tiring already, which is also the case regarding the characters. You've seen all this or close variations of all this somewhere before. Nevertheless, the actors seemed to do their best with the script they've been given & there are a few crank-out-a-smile moments. The plot never really takes off, never builds up to anything, eventually feeling repeatitive. In other words, there are some pacing issues. In the light of all the negative aspects it's hard to compliment anything else, what we've still left is the visual side of the movie, and, well, it's simply alright. There are a few tiny, cool surprises, one in a form of an animated dream.

"Corporate Animals" is a painfully average 90 minute comedy sketch & the kind of a horror comedy that You can pass on while not missing anything. I recommend it for those who like the cast, comedy on the corporate themes or to those who want to see how Patrick Brice underwhelms You after the Creep duology. My rating: 5/10

The actors are good performers in this. I just didn't like the storyline. Pace was slow, and situation was uncomfortable, but I get that is what the filmmakers were going for. They succeeded. I just felt uncomfortable watching all these adults behave like spoiled brats among each other. Just not my cup of tea. Didn't find it entertaining.

After a cave in, a group of colleagues on a team-building outing, get trapped in a cave and struggle to hold it together. This movie is a comedy, but it's a very dark one that wants to gross you out and make you laugh at the same time. It's not super successful in this area. I was entertained and even amused for some time, but the longer the movie went, the less funny and interesting it became. It's full of gore and vulgarity, making this far from kid friendly. It was like a spoof of the survival movie Alive, but shot in a style that reminded me of The Office. It needed less crudeness and more cleverness. While certain moments got a laugh out of me, the entertainment factor was disappointing in the end.
