Trivia
The pawn shop where Cindy (Mila Kunis) sells the stolen guitar was the same store used for the infamous pawn shop scenes in Pulp Fiction (1994).

Goofs
In the opening scene, the music store employees call the pickups on the Gibson guitar "humbuckings." Those type of pickups are either called "humbuckers" or "humbucking pickups," but not "humbuckings." Someone picky enough to fuss about the difference between "color" and "finish" would likely be the same way about pickups.

Quotes
Joel: What is it with women? Y'know, they say they don't care about looks--they just want a guy who's smart and funny--but they always just end up laughing at whatever the good-looking stupid guy says.

Crazy credits
There is a short scene during the end credits.

Not as funny as Office Space. Too uneven and unfocused.

One of my favorite comedies is the cult film Office Space. Mike Judge directed Office Space as well as Extract. I had fairly high expectations for this movie hoping it would be as enjoyable and entertaining to watch as Office Space. Unfortunately, I was let down by Extract after viewing it.

The movie has a few funny moments, but I didn't think it had enough. Ben Afflek gives a mildly amusing performance as a pot smoking stoner. Jason Bateman and Mila Kunis are alright, but nothing special. I can't say the movie was all that memorable either.

Ultimately, Extract is too uneven and unfocused to be called a success. Fans of Office Space and Mike Judge may want to watch Extract out of curiosity. It's not that great, but it is passable.
