Employee of the Month (2006)

Details Release Date: Oct 06, 2006; Rated: PG-13; Length: 103 Minutes; Genre: Comedy; With: Dane Cook, Dax Shepard and Jessica Simpson; Distributor: Lions Gate Films

Stand-up superstar Dane Cook and Dax Shepard (Punk'd) face off as cashiers at a Costco-style store trying to win the love of their new co-worker (Jessica Simpson). ''I train for my job,'' says Shepard, who plays the bad guy. ''I've waxed my forearms to keep my [cash-register] ring rate high. Like a swimmer.'' Meanwhile, Cook — he of the many MySpace friends — merely had to call on his natural doof skills to play a slacker. ''It was almost like Spy vs. Spy,'' he says. ''He took Black Spy, I was White Spy; we had this competitive streak go through us that I haven't felt since high school.''
