My Review-
You would thing a documentary about a parking lot wouldn't be that interesting, but it surprisingly is. The people that are portrayed working at the lot in the film are all interesting in their own unique way. Each one has a different story or experience of being in the parking lot dealing with different people and reactions, and it is very entertaining. Each of the people that we meet in this documentary has a reason for working at that particular lot, most of them the same and some are different but they all share the same frustration with the people that they have to deal with on an everyday basis. Something else that makes this documentary worth watching how they talk to each attendant that works there past or present, and shows them on their shifts or talk about the shifts that they did and what they would go through on a normal day. Its kind of cool to see some one who loves their job like that even if it is just working in a parking lot taking money from people who get made that they have to pay a dollar when they drive like a SUV, or a mustang. These people that work the parking lot also don't give a fuck what people think about them, at times. To them they are on the high horse and they get to tell the people in the cars what to do, even its for a brief two minutes, they have the power. What would seem to us is a lame boring job, to them is possibly the best job in the world for that time that they are working there. As one of them put it " We had it all in a world that had nothing to offer us."
