Village Voice -
The movie is characterized by its crisp, cutting, classical framing, and comic timing. The style and approach recall classic Albert Brooks. Indeed, the beleaguered, cuckolded Joel would have been a great role for the young Brooks--adding a certain self-aggrandizing je ne sais quoi or a neurotic zetz that the appealing, but bland, Bateman lacks.

ReelViews -
Extract is no masterpiece, but it's considerably better than many 2009 films that have received a more robust backing.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch -
Extract has some flavor, but the comedic kick is diluted by flat characters and a thin story.

Chicago Sun-Times -
Sort of entertaining, but lacks the focus and comic energy of Judge's "Office Space" (1999), and to believe that Suzie would be attracted to the gigolo requires not merely the suspension of disbelief, but its demolition.

Miami Herald -
Although never boring and almost continually amusing, Extract doesn't work as a movie because you don't buy a minute of it, even as silly satire.
