The movie-within-the show was a little contrived, but strong work to Greg Daniels and Co. for refusing to simply plunk random a-list stars into the world of Dunder Mifflin. I would have hated that.
I tooootally agree.
But I didn't think Pam's monologue was too heavy-handed. I think she was realistically devastated by her parents' divorce and overwhelmed by how committed Jim is to her at the same time. So it worked for me. I think the CPR scene was the one that was really over-the-top.
