Funny movie February 24, 2009 E. Stansell (Gonzales, LA USA) This movie is a funny movie if you're having a comedy night or a laid back night. Wide range of casting, and it's funny how much others can relate to this movie, based on the fact that jobs can be fun and crazy.
Food Service May 5, 2008 W. Allen Braswell (Route 66) This movie was one of the funniest and most realistical films that I have ever seen conserning the food service industry. Wait a minute, this is the first restaurant movie that I have ever seen. I found it be loud, offensive, and very realistic to the culture that exists in all three restaurants I worked in. Lewd games; making fun of your customers; never be rude to people who handle your food; management position offered to an employee, and the employee does not want it are, from my experience, facts that we see in everyday food service life. I remember in one restaurant that I worked in, management had to lock up the whip cream so people couldn't steal it because so many were getting high from it, but if staff could not get to the whip cream, then there were other ways to get high. It's sad, I know, but I would take waiting tables job again over a suit and tie kind of job. Check my myspace site: [..]
Hilarious comedy - highly recommend it! August 2, 2006 BasinBictory (Nowhere in particular) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
What "Office Space" is to Dilbert-like cubicle dwellers, this movie is to restaurant workers. The movie follows one day in the life of a kitschy, Chili's or Applebee's-style restaurant known as ShenaniganZ, and the various personalities that work there. Every hilarious situation that a typical retaurant might have is shown, from bitchy customers (who then get "very special" treatment of their food) to busboys who are gangsta rapper wannabes, to a waiter who has a phobia of using public restrooms, to a waitress who yells at the top of her lungs at every little thing that ticks her off, to perhaps the funniest long-running joke in the movie, the infamous "penis-showing" game, where the cooks attempt to display their genitals to unwitting fellow employees as part of a point system. Contorting the genitals into various shapes, like the "goat" the "brain" and the "batwing" earn you extra points. Just non-stop hilarity, with all the typical customer archetypes represented as well - the bitchy woman, the redneck hick, the foreigners who pretend that they don't speak English or understand American tipping ettiquette, to an old classmate who drops in to taunt his less-successful former chum. Not as gross or raunchy in style as the "American Pie" series, this movie is still a bit edgy and I wouldn't watch it with small children.
Hilarious, True and Funny March 31, 2006 Crazy Cossack (New Hampshire) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Anybody who has ever worked in any service industry should and can appreciate this movie....As a Floor Capitan in an above average resturant I would have sworn they filmed it in my establishment at times....As I watched - I saw so many people that fit the characters in the movie in my own place....As the saying goes on the box - "Never upset anybody who comes in contact with your food!" This goes along with what my own father told me when we first came to the USA. People get off your cell phones and watch this hilarious movie.
AWESOME MOVIE!!! March 3, 2006 J. Abbruzzio (Brooklyn, NY) 3 out of 6 found this review helpful
I thought it was like Clerks but in a restaurant instead of a convenience store. However I would love to know why the full screen version costs so much more than the widescreen version. I didn't pay $3000 for my 53" TV to have only a 25" picture.
