Mike “Beavis & Butthead” Judge’s first foray into live-action feature work is aimed directly at the silent majority of Dilbert warriors, those sad cube jockeys of Silicon Valley who beat ever onward, boats against the current, borne ever backward into the downsize. The overall plot moronically expects us to empathize with three programmers who get so fed up with their stupid boss and his heartless company that they decide to embezzle a bunch of money. However, hidden in the cracks are some genuinely funny moments. Sure, it’s mostly cube humor. But every once in awhile it works. Plus I have to feel at least a little for any character whose apartment sports the same IKEA coffee table I have at home. Mildly amusing
