Writer-Director Mike Judge has brought back the zany antics of workplace oddity in the hilarious "Extract". It is not in the echelon of Judge's workplace comedy masterpiece "Office Space" but "Extract" still does the comedy job right. Jason Bateman is flawless as Joel, an owner of an extract company whose working & personal life goes into bizarre gear when: one of his employees suffers a testicle on-the-job accident, his bartender friend convinces him to experiment with drugs, his wife starts sleeping with the pool boy, and a new female temp makes the move on him but wants to steal more than his heart. Hey, what do you want? This kind of weird s*it always happens to Joels. Joel also gets badgered by a relentless neighbor every day to add fuel to the fire. Judge's film-making niche of creating satirical scenarios of workplace situations with wacky characterizations cannot be unmatched. To quote Carly Simon: "Nobody Does it Better", and I will be the judge of that! The ensemble acting of "Extract" was intact with sheer brilliance: Mila Kunis stole the show as the kleptomaniac temp Cindy, I got wiggy with Kristen Wiig's performance as Joel's cheating wife Suzie, Ben Affleck had a cool stillness about him as Joel's bartender friend Dean, J.K. Simmons had once again that Special J.K. thespian flavor as the company manager Brian, Clifton Collins Jr. continues to step closer to acting stardom with his role as the testicle-challenged Step, and David Koechner did not need any acting coaching as the annoying neighbor Nathan. Also, nice supporting turns were done by Dustin Milligan as the cerebrally challenged gigolo Brad, and the steady Beth Grant as the crabby employee Mary. But my favorite scene stealer of "Extract" was Matt Schulze as the stoner madman Willie or should I say Steamboat Willie. And again let's not extract our main man Jason Bateman from this ensemble comedy dream team. Judge's "Extract" screenplay was not in the verbal mastery space of "Office Space" but still worthy of an upsizing commendation. That's the working comedy word! Do not downsize this comedic gem from your movie viewing list, and catch the comedy flavor of "Extract" today. ***** Excellent
