Extract is a 2009 American comedy film written and directed by Mike Judge. It makes fun of the working conditions of a company from the perspective of the owner, rather than the employees. It stars an ensemble cast featuring Jason Bateman, Mila Kunis, Kristen Wiig, and Ben Affleck, with J. K. Simmons, Clifton Collins Jr., and Dustin Milligan.

The film is said to be Judge's companion piece to Office Space. It was filmed in Los Angeles and set in the world of an extract factory where it was shot in an actual water bottling plant south of Los Angeles, in the City of Commerce. Judge relied on his own knowledge of the industrial world having actually worked in a factory.

It received generally positive reviews from critics and grossed $10.8 million worldwide against a budget of $8 million.^[2] Extract was theatrically released in the United States on September 4, 2009.
