Critics Consensus: The witty and charming In Good Company offers laughs at the expense of corporate culture.

Reviews

Herald Sun (Australia)

Leigh Paatsch

Great acting and scripting makes this a package well worth taking.

Despite its shortcomings, In Good Company is a heartfelt film that touches on the elements of human behavior. Easy-going with an easy gentle flow, there is a realism that will connect with us all.

This structure works a treat for the family tale, but on the corporate side it becomes the deal breaker that undermines a plot which pleasingly inverses the age means power paradigm.

A so-so script but great performances.
