Plot: Four friends bet a month's salary to see who can stay indoors the longest... It's lunch hour on day 24 of the wager and everyone's pretty much reached their breaking point. Marijuana-medicated Tom str...( read more read more... )uggles through an illicit affair, flights of self-doubt and periodic superhero sightings, all the while trying to ignore his cubicle mate, Brad, who spends most of the time playing a computer game when not plotting suicide. Go-getter Sandra, convinced toxic air is seeping through the building's vents, sniffs magazine perfume samples as she carries out her latest assignment--trailing her elderly kleptomaniac boss. Randy passes the time by assigning animal names to mall patrons while Curt, the perenially engaged office Lothario, makes his move on a vulnerable co-worker. By the lunch hour's end, the bet has prematurely unfolded, leaving all participants to re-examine what could possibly be worth more than their happiness and freedom.

    The even more sarcastic, Canadian version of Office Space, delightful, but also goes to real issues of the stifling nature of the misnamed middle-class office work.

    Loooooove this one. Energetic, a little demented, wickedly well done.
    Plus, it was filmed in downtown Calgary.
    Awesome flick.

    I don't really know what to say about this one... It does leave you with something to think about. What are we willing to sacifice? and just how dependant has our society become? I guess it's inrony was beautiful. How each chactor brought a different sense of being to the film. I guess it was sarcasticly funny in moments, but over all it wasn't brilliant to me

    Waydowntown gives you something to think about. It does make you wonder what a month being only indoors would do to a person. Quite the experiment, I don't think I would last! The characters depicted real people and how they think, and react. Not the typical carbon copy hollywood character. This movie is different and worth checking out.

    Funny Funny. A little bit of "Survior" and a little bit of "The Office". It's a crazy movie for people who are curious for something different.

    My alltime favourite movie. Dark, dry humour and observations about city and office life. I can see bits of myself in each of the characters as they all react to their self imposed imprisonment in the concrete and glass maze that we call the city.

    A bit on the bizarre side, but I feel like I remember enjoying it; the story is interesting. Plus, you gotta love Fab!
