Obviously well made, but in the end I think maybe I'm just too jaded towrad dysfunction on film. <BR/><BR/>"Employee of the Month" I just don't get. You're right, there wasn't a single solid laugh in the whole thing. Dane tried to play the wounded hero. Why? Why would anyone think that the audience for this movie wanted to see anything but Dane's explosive dork/frat boy persona? I think that would've been great! But this - this was terrible.
