Memron (2004)

A low-budget and initially understated yet increasingly manic and hilarious mockumentary about a post-Enron-like outplacement support group -- think of The Office with similar amounts of dysfunction but more casual production values. Every character has a significant amount of loserness to contribute and the ensemble cast's combination yields more than the sum of the individual parts. Don't miss the outtakes at the end, which form an epilogue. Warning: These people are all pathetic, because the point of satire is to skewer wrongheaded thinking and actions. The self-involved Memron executives continue to rip off those who are down on their luck like sharks in a pool full of chum. We all know people like these characters so with any luck, Memron might lead you to ask "How can anyone be that way?" 4.5 stars.
