Demi Moore, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Calum Worthy, Ed Helms, Jessica Williams, Nasim Pedrad, Dan Bakkedahl, Martha Kelly, Jennifer Kim, and Karan Soni in Corporate Animals (2019)
Lucy (Demi Moore) is the egotistical megalomaniac CEO of Incredible Edibles, America's premier provider of edible cutlery. In her infinite wisdom, Lucy leads her staff including her long-suffering assistants, Freddie (Karan Soni) and Jess (Jessica Williams), on a corporate team-building caving weekend to New Mexico. When disaster strikes, not even their useless guide, Brandon (Ed Helms), can save them. Trapped underground by a cave-in, this mismatched and disgruntled group must pull together in order to survive.

    Very offbeat and unusually funny

    It starts off a bit slow but if you can get through the first 15min, what you'll get is a dark comedy about what happens when a bunch of employees have to pull together to survive being trapped in a cave with their a-hole boss.

    It's an offbeat, unusually funny movie filled with a couple one liners that'll make you chuckle. For a quiet night in with nothing else to watch, give this movie a bash.

    Don't believe all the poor reviews you see of this film. This will become a cult classic like Office Space in a couple years time

    It's really funny

    This film tells the story of a group of colleagues in a team building trip that goes horribly wrong.

    The story is very funny, and I find myself often giggling. The jokes are funny, and the corporate environment is quite realistic and reflective of the working world. Demi Moore's character offers a good focus for viewers, and her ending is rather satisfying. I enjoyed watching it a lot.

    Less a movie, more a long sketch

    Nobody's finest hour.

    It has some humourous moments but ultimately lacks a tight script and direction to make it work.

    A Painfully Average Stretch of a Sketch that Never Quite Hits the Mark

    I was very interested in seeing what Patrick Brice does next (Creep & Creep 2 are, in my opinion, awesome genre movies) and I'm not happy to say that "Corporate Animals" feels like a flop in each and every way.

    Many reviews state the very same flaws and I can't find any better words, because they're right - it feels like a stretched out character sketch with a very shallow plot, uninventive sitatuations, most of the humor is based on archaic social stereotypes & all the social commentary in the script is old and tiring already, which is also the case regarding the characters. You've seen all this or close variations of all this somewhere before. Nevertheless, the actors seemed to do their best with the script they've been given & there are a few crank-out-a-smile moments. The plot never really takes off, never builds up to anything, eventually feeling repeatitive. In other words, there are some pacing issues. In the light of all the negative aspects it's hard to compliment anything else, what we've still left is the visual side of the movie, and, well, it's simply alright. There are a few tiny, cool surprises, one in a form of an animated dream.

    "Corporate Animals" is a painfully average 90 minute comedy sketch & the kind of a horror comedy that You can pass on while not missing anything. I recommend it for those who like the cast, comedy on the corporate themes or to those who want to see how Patrick Brice underwhelms You after the Creep duology. My rating: 5/10

    Was not expecting this to be good.

    I really enjoyed it.

    Thought this would be a crap raunchy comedy. I was wrong. It's a sharp shooting dark comedy.

    Hilarious in the most subtle of ways.

    "Not my arm! It's where I keep my watch" Great cast. And it had a good ending which is rare.

    • Trivia
      Ed Helms revealed during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live that during the making of this film his publicist called and said there were rumors floating around that Helms was having an affair with co-star Demi Moore and the publicist wanted to know if that was true. Helms denied it saying he was a happily married man. After the call, he began freaking out a bit realizing he needed to let his wife know. But when he told her and his mother about the story, they just laughed and said "Demi Moore, high five!" They thought it was hilarious that anyone would think he and Moore would be a couple.

      Lucy: We need to make this decision as a team, and there's no "I" in team.

      Derek: Yeah but if you swap the letters around it spells meat.
