'Extract' web reviews

Mike Judge, the creator of "Office Space," heads back to work with "Extract," a new comedy starring Jason Bateman, Mila Kunis, Kristen Wiig, Ben Affleck, Clifton Collins Jr. and J.K. Simmons. Find out what some of the Web's film critics have to say about "Extract" right after the jump.
• Cinematical's Jette Kernion: "In any case, it's much funnier and more fearless than the other "grown-up" comedies I've seen this year."
• CinemaBlend's Josh Tyler: "While there’s a lot to like in 'Extract,' ultimately, for whatever reason, it feels like a movie that’s had all the fun deliberately sucked out of it."
• Latino Review's George Roush: "Some might find it funny, a movie they're anxious to see. But if I were you, I'd heed my words, and wait for the dvd."
• Cole Abaius @ FilmSchoolRejects: "Over all, I enjoyed the movie, but it ended up being a little like cinematic cotton candy."
• Joblo's JimmyO: "'Extract' is very well shot film indeed, but nothing that will distract from the character driven humor."
• Collider's Matt Goldberg: "While 'Extract' does have satirical influences, it’s not the slicing observations of real-life so much as a fable about how even the smallest of every-day deceptions can lead to outrageous circumstances."
• Brad Brevet @ RopeOfSilicon: "It's clearly his most pedestrian feature to date and a lot of the ambition seems to be absent."
