Employee of the Month- MY REVIEW

So as you can see below, I went to see an advance screening of Employee of the Month last night for FREE a la Z100 (which further reiterates my mantra of life: Ask and you shall receive).

For the rest of the world, Employee of the Month opens in theaters everywhere tomorrow, October 6, 2006, but if you want to know whether you should see it or not, I've been gracious enough to give you my review!

Employee of the Month is a not-so-creative story about two goofy guys (Dane Cook and Dax Shepard) fighting over 1 hot girl (Jessica Simpson). The plot line was predictable and slightly cheesy, but I feel like the characters pulled it off, as expected. Basically, rumor gets out at the local bulk discount store that Jessica Simpson's character is known for sleeping with the Employee of the Month. Dax (Vincent) is the reigning employee, but Dane (Zack)is a slacker who wants a piece of Jessica's (Amy's) pie so he tries to step up his game in time to win the monthly award.

THE HIGHLIGHTS:
**Dane Cook is unbelievably lovable and realistically cutsie! He's known for being so silly that he's almost cartoon-like but in this movie he combines surprisingly good acting with an endearing yet slightly toned down funny-appeal, such that he reminded me of the cute funny guy in school or at work that you can't help but fall in love with (I certainly did, and that landed me in therapy, but oh well!)



**Also, Efren Ramirez, most commonly known for his role as Pedro in Napoleon Dynamite, plays virtually the same role in this movie, only his character's name this time is Jorge (not stereotypical at all!). He's Vincent's slightly stupid, usually quiet Mexican sidekick. He probably elicited the most laughs from the audience due to his frequent painful traumas such as smacking his head on the conveyor belt, and taking a golf ball and baseball bat to the melon.

**If you are expecting to see Jessica Simpson's awesome boobie cleavage alot, you are in luck. She is either wearing a very low cut V-neck or a revealing dress in every scene. If you are afraid of seeing her bomb as an actress, you don't really have to worry about that because the writers and directors have made it so that she is in almost every scene, but has very few lines. Mostly she just stands there and smiles or looks confused, which, although this does fit with her Character's persona, also happens to be what she does best in real life(besides sing whiny ballads).

I laughed, and enjoyed the experience overall, but then again I didn't have to pay! I love Dane Cook a little bit more, but that is to be expected because he is the cutest funniest man alive (Do not be confused, Eddie Vedder is the sexiest most magical man alive)

So there ya go, make your own decisions as to whether to watch this movie in a room with a bunch of strangers in front of the big screen or to receive it in a little red envelope in your mail box, either way, I recommend it!
