What did you expect from Mike Judge? (6 1/6) out of 10 = Depending on mood for a quality comedy based on the style of director.
Okay, first of all I saw this movie sober (I recommend you alter your state to enjoy it further and make the light comedy harder) meaning laugh out loud by yourself more than once. Second, of all if you don't know Mike Judge than you probably know King of the Hill, Beavis and Butthead, and one more important one to help grade this movie, Office Space.
If you enjoyed Mike Judge's other movies I seriously don't understand why you would not enjoy this film. Theater worthy?-No Redbox/OnDemand worthy-Yes. What do people expect from Mike Judge? His movies involve everyday people characters in which your constantly saying you know/knew someone just like that. And what's good about this film you get to see high grade actors playing some of these characters and great character actors born to play the part. I could go on how it's nice to see a movie about people just trying to be happy in their lives that seem boring or uneventful and completely turn it upside down. I'm here because I was annoyed because I was debating on renting this and I went on here and found so many bad reviews. Some people wouldn't mind this (for a low price) to have next to their office space DVD. We all agree that Office Space is a great film but ya know what Extract has more well know actors playing roles they don't usually play (Affleck) or playing roles they can't mess up (Bateman) and so for a person who has direct TV I do not regret renting this and laughed and was actually surprised a few times. People should grade on what they should expect and not expect from an experienced well known director. Example you can't grade this movie if you compare it to others. Extract to Wonderlust? Apatow films to Judge films? They both have different styles of what they want to create. For the last time if you enjoy Mike Judge films I don't see you not enjoying this film. Oh and if you don't know anything about Mike Judge films then don't expect this to be one of your favorite comedies or even your top 5-10 list. Is it more than tolerable and actually enjoyable and you can relate and care about the characters? Absolutely then rent this and try not to have high expectations. It was worth my four bucks on a night I couldn't sleep that's for sure.
