Office Christmas Party (2016)


After a really strong set-up and first half, this comedy about the Zenotech corporation's efforts to throw a Christmas party descends, like the party itself, into chaos, abandoning narrative sense, moving the action away from the titular party, and ending on the idea that financial, medical, emotional and organisational woes are best dealt with with a sex and drug orgy, as if the writers themselves lost interest in the film's second half when one of them gave the signal for the others to join him outside for another toke/smoke/chuff/shot/snort/job.

★★☆☆☆

This sounds like fun. I missed the traditional Christmas thanks to corporate events NYC this year, but I’ll make up for that in the next two days. I am just going to sit and relax with a couple of Christmas movies and the possibility of a good time. Happy New Year!
