Homage, but overall not worth the trouble


The only thing about this movie that's interesting is the homage scene to the film classic, The Graduate -- the scene with the large circular fountain while the Beetles song plays in the background. However, it's much more interesting to watch the far-better original than this silly ode to that film. Nothing redeeming about this.

first of all its spelled beatles, and second of all it was simon and garfunkel, not the beatles

Man, I came on here because I saw Jack Lemmon on TV and thought "hey, what's that movie he's in that's like Loser?" Loser is JUST LIKE The Apartment. When I saw the latter I remember being surprised by how many things it and Loser have in common.

I'm glad someone mentioned how Loser is basically The Apartment, only without the good screenplay, fine actors, and brilliant director!
