Movie Haiku:Sly, inventive dramedy about life in a corporate office tower told from the perspective of 4 clerical temps. The problem is that such close attention to boredom gets… well… a bit boring. But Collette’s very good as the main mouthpiece for the Sprecher sisters, who’ve clearly walked this talk personally.
