Trailer!: Mike Judge's Extract

POSTED: Thursday, April 9, 2009, 8:30 PM

The trailer for Mike Judge's new movie Extract.

I wasn't a big fan of Judge's last flick, Idiocracy ' it had it's moments but it didn't come close to the genius of Office Space ' but I also think it was unfairly ghettoized by stuido execs who didn't think it had an audience. But this looks like a return form for Judge, who is always at his best when he dissects everyday life and the characters therein (i.e. Office Space, Beavis and Butthead, even King of the Hill, which consistently surprises with me with its greatness). Jason Batemen is always A+ (except in Teen Wolf Too, where he's just alright) and oh my stars! Is that Ben Affleck actually being hilarious? Dude has been on a role since Gone, Baby, Gone. It's gonna be much harder to make him a constant punchline now. Ah, but never fear, we'll always have Reindeer Games.

Extract is scheduled to open Sept. 4
