The idea sounded solid, but the execution was lost somewhere. It's not that it didn't keep me moderately entertained for the run time, but overall after the credits ran I didn't know what type of movie it was. It's not a comedy or horror or action. I'm just not sure how to describe it. Watchable but forgettable.
If you're looking for funny and easy to watch after a long day this won't do you wrong. It's super dumb but really funny. Lags in the middle a bit but finishes well. Actors are great, writing is witty, storyline is different, effects were surprisingly good.
OK, so this should really be more about the misadventures and character development about the three friends. Because the whole premise about aliens and the "fight" against them only kicks in the last third of the movie. This movie's synopsis should really be about the comedic relationships of the three best friends.
And the whole point of the alien seems really tacked on for no reason, because the movie was going perfectly fine without it. It's all about these 3 friends who are constantly down on their luck and how things go from bad to worse from day to day. That in itself would have been an adequate premise for the movie.
That being said, it's kind of a funny and well-shot movie. It's just all the action scenes are terrible and the alien part is silly. The movie is still a fun time, but I feel that I was heavily misled by the description.

Saw randomly on Netflix, and this would be my first time watching an African produced movie.
This movie is okay, there isn't really anything impressive about it. Rather the flaw or issue with this film, the story was bouncing around too much. It would of been more effective if Office Invasion stuck to just one theme as a whole instead of trying to messily tackle comedy, sci fi, business themes, and action.
The execution could of been a lot better if this movie explained more on why certain "things" happened. There are several moments in the movie where scenes are just inserted for no reason and somehow, everyone acccepts it like its normal. To the point where im questioning the common sense of some of the characters to the point of being bizarre.
The comedy level is....only at the minimum sadly. Kind of a shame the other issues can prevent you from truly being attached to this movie.

To begin with, let me say that this is a watchable movie and that's it. There is nothing special here that would push this film above some other films. Up to more than half of the film, the story moves drastically slowly and what's worst is that it's not interesting at all, I'd even say that something similar to a drama is going on in the background a that time. On the other hand, after more than half of the film's duration, the story moves too quickly, in a very short space of time they place a science fiction character and the concluding part of the story related to that genre and theme. For a science fiction film, there are too few visual effects, the ones that exist are at a solid level. You can watch it, but it's nothing special!
