Extract




It was raining again today so we decided to do something completely different: A movie! We went to T-town to see "Extract", the new Mike Judge comedy starring Jason Bateman, Ben Affleck, Kristen Wiig, and J.K. Simmons. Jason Bateman owns a company that makes food extracts. Having worked at a couple of factories before and during college, I can say that the workers portrayed are way close to real people (weird but real). Jason Bateman was trying to decide whether to sell the company to General Mills; he is being sued by an attorney (Gene Simmons of KISS fame) who represents an employee who lost a testicle in a "freak accident; a jail-bait employee that is ripping everyone off; and a bartender friend, Ben Affleck who tries to give him drugs and other bad advice. It is R for subject matter but language is stout but seldom. Just an average day at the office!
It is an adult story because only adults would get it!

It was a funny movie. I will not recommend it because I don't want to be blamed for ruining your morals. (Its in sort of the vain of "Hangover" if you know what I mean. your laughing but you wished you weren't!))

For me ***stars
