    Good film and script, don't really like Scarlett Johansson in this one but the plot is interesting and Dennis Quaid and Topher do a good job.

    Immemorable. Cute when I first saw it in the theater, but now I can't recall most of it.

    I liked this way more than I thought I would because it is not what I thought it would be. It is much more a subtle, honest character drama than a formulaic romantic comedy, and it gave me a genuine interest in its characters. The film is admirable but unfortunately forgettable.

    A very charming movie, however not as funny the second time around. However, after not watching it for a few years, it does get funny again- but I don't think as funny as I originally thought. The dinner scene however is still a real kicker- best part of the whole movie!

    I saw that an actor from "that 70s show" was starring this movie, and I HAD to see it. It was nice, but not really the movie I would pick to take with me to an island.

    I liked this film. Its rare in a film that you get a character who is just an all around good person without any major flaws. It was refreshing to see a good family with good parents with real problems.

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

Ultimately, this workplace fairy tale creates its own cheer. When its time is up, you'll feel like you've been in good company. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

A rare species: a feel-good movie about big business. It's about a corporate culture that tries to be evil and fails. full review

Ty Burr, Boston Globe

As corporate comedy-dramas go, Company is cheerful and easy to watch but surprisingly inept in the telling. full review

It manages to be funny and charming while capturing a lot of disturbing things about the way we live now: our deepest fears about our place in a system that could force us to clean out our desks (if w... full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune

The point of [Weitz's] story isn't to deliver a tidy resolution, but to let us get to know two characters a little and like them a lot. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Fresh comic thinking spices up this smart cookie of a satire. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

The picture has a pleasurable, good-natured glow. You can diagram its various problems as you're watching it and still walk away feeling you've had a good time. full review
