Is it against copyright to show a movie at work?

Yes it is because it is a public viewing, you need the written permission of the studio that produced it, or buy a license for public viewing from the studio itself (But that costs quite a lot) As opposed to the original contributor's answer above, it depends on who can view the movie. A "public viewing" is one that is open to the public. However, if you show a movie at work and those in attendance are all employees, it is then a "PRIVATE" screening/viewing of the film.
