Employee of the Month

Employee of the Month was directed by Greg Coolidge, and it came out in 2006. The main character is Zack Bradley (Dane Cook) who works at Super Club because when he was younger he lost all of his grandmother's retirement money with a start up dot com, so he wanted alot less responsibility. But when a new woman, Amy Renfro (Jessica Simpson) gets transferred to the store, Zack is motivated to get the Employee of the Month award, since he and his friends read her personal file and found out that she goes for the employee of the month. Well Zack's coworker, Vince Downey (Dax Shepard) is also trying to win Amy over, but he does alot of weird things and he tries to be more like zack even, wearing the shoes with the wheels in the bottom of them and everything.

Zack eventually almost ties the amount of gold stars that Vince has, and the store decides to have a contest to see who would win the award, along with a brand new-ish 2005 Malibu. If you want to find out who wins, you'll have to watch the movie. I liked it, and I thought that most of it was funny. Some similar movies are Happy Gilmore, and Dick, which is a really old movie from the '90s, but it was really good. Anyways, if you like those kinds of movies you would probably like this one.

  2. I would have enjoyed this movie a lot more if Dane Cook wasn't playing the lead male role. I really enjoy Dax Shepard though, which made the movie more tolerable.

  3. Sounds like a classic "showing responsibility to get the girl" story. I haven't seen it, but it sounds pretty light-hearted, so I might have to give it a try.
