Extract is a 2009 comedy film written and directed by Mike Judge and starring Jason Bateman, Mila Kunis, J.K. Simmons, and Ben Affleck.
This film is scheduled to be released on September 4, 2009.
Plot
An extract factory owner deals with workplace problems and a streak of bad luck.
But in “Extract,” nothing explains the major stupidity in and about the workplace of a medium-sized business in an unnamed community that looks like bits of Los Angeles pieced together. Perhaps something in the water system?
The actual source of the chain of daft events is the sexual allure of Mila Kunis’ Cindy, who no one seems to realize is a scheming sociopath. Joel Reynolds (Jason Bateman), the owner of a flavor-extract plant, certainly is smitten with his new temp employee.
His best friend, Dean (Ben Affleck), a substance-abusing bartender, convinces him that to not feel guilty about committing adultery, he should first hire a “gigolo” (Dustin Milligan) to sleep with his wife (Kristen Wiig).
Meanwhile, Cindy has sweet-talked fellow employee Step (Clifton Collins Jr.), who has suffered a bizarre industrial accident, into filing a huge lawsuit against the company that will bankrupt the firm.
Why the company’s insurance agents and their lawyers aren’t called in never is explained.) Even when Cindy steals workers’ purses, the women assume it can’t possibly be that pretty young woman so it must be the new Latino employee.
About the only thing Cindy can’t be blamed for is the fact that the company hires only losers and misfits. You do wonder how the firm still is such a success that General Mills is eyeing it as a possible acquisition.
Not for a single moment does anyone in this film make a good decision. Consequently, you quickly catch on and easily anticipate the bad decisions before they happen.

It sounds like you’re creating problems yourself by trying to solve this issue instead of looking at why their is a problem in the first place
