Synopsis: For years, Zack Bradley (Dane Cook) has worked hard at not working hard at all, coasting under the radar as an ambitiously invisible box-boy at the local Super Club. Living with his grandmother,... For years, Zack Bradley (Dane Cook) has worked hard at not working hard at all, coasting under the radar as an ambitiously invisible box-boy at the local Super Club. Living with his grandmother, and spending his free time with his box-boy crew, Zack keeps people's expectations of him as low as his profile. So when his kiss-up coworker Vince (Dax Shepard) earns the Employee of the Month title for the 17th time in a row, Zack couldn't care less. But when sexy cashier Amy (Jessica Simpson) joins the store's staff, and rumors being circulating that she only dates winners of this award, the stakes are instantly raised. What begins as a plan to win Amy's heart slowly morphs into a much greater challenge, with Zack's low aspirations gradually growing into earnest attempts at excellence. With the crazed Vince always in his way, Zack must prove his worth to his superiors, his friends, Amy, and himself. New director Greg Coolidge takes few risks here, but manages to deliver laughs thanks to a solid cast of comic actors including Andy Dick, Tim Bagley, Brian George, Danny Woodburn, and Efren Ramirez. Likewise, Cook gives the film a certain charm without trying too hard. Like OFFICE SPACE and THE 40-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN, EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH benefits from its banal setting. The wholesale-size proportions of the props contrast nicely with the small story being told, with Cook and his fellow actors taking full advantage of the set's comic possibilities. Though the script does not give Jessica Simpson much to do, she makes the best of her limited character. By seeming aware of the role her own sex appeal plays, she adds a little tongue-in-cheek sass to the mix, and helps the film get away with its cheeky obsession with her chest. [More]
