The Promotion Movie Synopsis & Plot
Oscar-nominated actor, John C. Reilly ("Chicago," "Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby") and Seann William Scott ("American Pie") lend their deft comedic touch to the story of two mid-level Chicago supermarket employees – Doug and Richard, a dubious new guy from Canada - who compete ruthlessly for a coveted managerial post at a new store location. Doug and Richard could not be more different, but going head-to-head in a contest of wits and will reveals how they have more in common than they once suspected. The duo battle toward a hilarious final showdown that will leave you guessing until the very end. The film is the directorial debut of Steve Conrad, the writer of the "The Pursuit of Happyness."
MOVIE REVIEW
From the writer of The Pursuit of Happyness comes The Promotion, an Office Space/Office wannabe that is better than I expected yet still not as good as it could have been. The Promotion stars Seann William Scott and John C. Reilly as two competing retail managers who are both vying to become the head of a new store.Read our Promotion, The movie review »
