I probably give this movie more credit than it deserves but nostalgia is a powerful force. I still maintain that Dax Shepard is excellent in this film, he just about outweighs the terrible Jessica Simpson. Yeah it's predictable but man I have a lot of great memories of this movie.

Let me put it this way, Dane Cook isn't the worst thing about this film.

I think if you've worked in retail for a long time, you appreciate this movie far more! Idiotic management doing chants, silly workmate romances, comedy gold and factions within the workplace. It's not a wet yourself laughing movie but I found myself very entertained, lightly chuckling quite often all the way through.
Drinking Game: Each time the gold stars are mentioned
Bottom Line: Very good performances by all to make the best satire/rom com of retail I've seen. -

It has Dane Cook in it so yeah.....pretty bad.

The film tries to hard to be funny and fails most of the time, some chuckles to be had but for the most part it's not very good. However, I didn't hate the movie.

Actually found this very funny, mostly cause of the fantastic cast...even Jessica Simpson is decent. Dax is really great as the films douche.

I have a soft spot for underdog movies...

So once there was this comedian named Dane Cook. He did the stand up circuit for years perfecting his craft and then seemingly over night he was one of the biggest comedians in the world. He was funny brash and in my opinion his Retaliation Stand Up CD ranks up there as one of the best of all time with the likes of great comedians like Richard Pryor, Bill Cosby, Jerry Seinfeld or Eddie Murphy. So much like the rest of those gentleman why not give him a shot to shine on the big screen. That's when we got Employee of the Month.
Unfortunately for Cook unlike the rest of those comedians he didn't bring that funny on the big…
