The Bindview Company is a firm comfortably nestled in a corporate park that specializes in a highly profitable product. Ted is a former Northwestern University literature professor who has since found his calling in sales. When fresh-faced Ohio native Jamie arrives at Bindview eager to acclimate to life in the big city, cynical Ted greets the cub salesman with a palpable sense of scorn. Though Jamie is currently engaged to be married to the pretty Belisa, the bride-to-be is beginning to view her prospective spouse as something of a loser, and soon sets her sights on his reluctant mentor Ted.
Not good, but not horrible. From the beginning, it's pretty obvious that everything isn't what it seems. At least, I was hoping there was something more to the story since the chemistry between the characters seemed forced and a bit strange. Even though the film was only about 90 minutes, that was stretching the limits of what they could get away with before it became boring. The twist at the end was pretty good, but it wasn't good enough to necessitate sitting through the rest of the film. It seemed that just when it was starting to get really interesting, it ended.
