Critic Reviews

Seattle Post-Intelligencer - Manny Lewis

It's an agreeable comedy that makes its priorities clear: It wants to be funny at the expense of almost everything else. Read full review

New York Post - Kyle Smith

For short stretches, the movie has a touch of surreal "Office Space" brilliance, but it's broadly acted, its characters are thin, and the production values are ragged. Still, it's hard to resist its goofy hostility: "You're like the drummer from REO Speedwagon. Nobody knows who you are." Read full review

Los Angeles Times - Mark Olsen

This may be a just-for-fun comedy, but that shouldn't mean that it must entirely disconnect from the world. Read full review

USA Today - Claudia Puig

You're bound to have more fun working overtime than watching Employee of the Month. Read full review

Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman

The results in Employee of the Month are toothless. Read full review

Chicago Reader - J.R. Jones

There's a great "Office Space"-style satire to be made about big-box stores screwing their working-poor employees, but Hollywood studios covet DVD rack space at those same stores, so instead we're supposed to get excited about which of these two idiots earns more gold stars. Read full review

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - David Gilmour

How bad does a film have to be to get the death doughnut? Disgracefully bad. Read full review

Employee of the Month can be a hilarious movie depending on your preference of comedy. It has a surprisingly unique premise for a movie and a fun cast of characters that makes the movie entertaining to watch with a group of friends or just if you're looking for a good time.

Not the worst, but certainly not the greatest film I've ever seen. Bit of a lame story but in a lot of places it was fun to watch, especially Andy Dick. Simpson is pretty nice to look at and I'm sure she's got a lot of talent in other areas. However, acting right now really Not the worst, but certainly not the greatest film I've ever seen. Bit of a lame story but in a lot of places it was fun to watch, especially Andy Dick. Simpson is pretty nice to look at and I'm sure she's got a lot of talent in other areas. However, acting right now really isn't one of them. I hope she'll improve and get serious and allow herself to shine in much better offerings. But you know how people love to hate some of the actors out there so she may not even get the chance. Over all the movie was okay. Could have been better. Not a total waste of the admission price.… Expand

Went to a Dane Cook movie, and only found Dax Sheppard funny. Overall, unless he gets involved with the creative process, he will end up not making the crossover to movies.

Dane Cook should have stopped while he was ahead. This movie shows that without the screaming, jumping around and mugging for the camera, he is nothing but a washed-up near-forty year old puppet controlled by Rupert Murdoch. Jessica Simpson shines when sharing screen time with him.
