I liked it. If I'm going to watch a dumb comedy, this is what I'm looking for. Yes, it has its flaws, but it was entertaining and funny enough.

Good thing Judge did "Office Space" first because he might not have gotten a chance to make a second film. Oh that's way too harsh. I don't mean that, really, but although it definitely had its moments here and there, there's precious little comedic consistency and Bateman's character is nowhere near as sympathetic or relatable (who here owns their own factory?) as Peter Gibbons was so it's hard to get invested in his home life when there's so little there to begin with. But it's amusing enough.

A far cry from the office anarchy of Office Space, Mike Judge's latest is but a bland collection of jokes tied together with a story that never goes anywhere.

I've never been more dissatisfied by a movie I had no strong opinions about.

+ worth experiencing

B. Affleck looks like Jesus on drugs. Otherwise mediocre comedy with few good moments.

This falls short of other Mike Judge masterworks. There are some good scenes and some above-average performances, but the movie itself is pretty much the opposite of memorable...save Gene Simmons.

There's really no reason why this failed, it had everything it needed to succeed, but consistently blew the landing at every opportunity for greatness.

A very original story that progresses in a weird way. It thrives as a character study, but it's still a comedy. Judge is a great filmmaker. You probably won't recognize Ben Affleck.

Generic but has some good characters and good acting that makes it worthwile.

A pretty boring plot is saved by a really funny performance by Jason Bateman.

Well-executed and hilarious with a killer cast.

This should put a dent in Judge's reputation as a misunderstood genius whose lack of success is only because he's been ill-treated by studios. Despite the adoration in some quarters for Judge's film work, both of his prior live-action outings suffer from significant sloppiness surrounding the flares of inspiration. In Extract, the sloppiness takes over entirely. Judge pounds away at his various plot threads and can barely find a decent laugh. By the end, the movie almost reeks of flop sweat.

Well made, entertaining if not somewhat bland at times.

Office Space 2: Factory Space. That is a good thing.

40 minutes in I was quite enjoying this light weighted comedy, it soon falls apart a bit. Characters tend to float in and out, which means a tighter script would of helped. Ending wasn't particularly great either. Enough side humor to get you by.

Tolerably bland comedy with some funny moments. The film just does not have a lot going for it. And Bateman's and Wiig's comedic charms can only do so much.

A couple funny parts, and likable enough (as anything starring Jason Bateman must be), but completely and utterly forgettable.

Meh.

Nothing of note here.

"Mike Judge doesn't sugarcoat his characters as anything more than slightly contemptible fratboys, a quality that makes his brand of comedy alternately liberating and frustrating." - Paul Schrodt

Mike Judge has made another funny, very entertaining movie. The cast is great and the laughs are spread out for the entire movie. This movie is not as funny as Office Space but I still recommend it.

Ok, didn't dislike it. I wasn't even expecting an Office Space quality comedy (which are rare enough) but it was a let down. If you see it you probably won't hate it, but if you miss it don't worry about it. Also Gene Simons is the man.

A boring, uninspired, pointless movie.

(KMcNeil's review) Disappointingly bland review that goes nowhere and amounts to nothing: Are we supposed to be happy that he didn't like it? Luckily he makes good use of parenthesis (i.e. here), appropriately puts a period at the end of "etc." and almost writes a three part list properly - then he adds a fourth thing, spoiling the proper effect of the "rule of three." My meta-review was awesome: "(KMcNeil's review) Disappointingly bland review that goes nowhere and amounts to nothing (etc.)"

My friends got me to watch this one. Despite a fantastic cast, I laughed a total of once. Also has one of the more impressive bongs in recent cinema history, but that's where the accolades end.
