I love these kinds of movies with a somewhat crazy story about a crazy person with a crazy idea, and it happens to be true. This film has a nice 70s vibe that I appreciate. The actors are good, and the direction is more than excellent. Al Pacino is in it, but his role is small and negligible, and I wouldn't do it for that anyway. This film simply held my attention from beginning to end with an ambiguous protagonist. A hero, a madman, or a criminal? Or is that office crime? I like those themes. Besides, I didn't know anything about this, which makes it an original story. A film you can recommend if you liked Falling Down 1993. It has similar themes about a man who can't handle it anymore and flips out in society. Or is he crazy, or is society crazy?
