Learn why you should never send your food back and other valuable lessons in this over-the-top
comedy set in the food service industry.
Dean (
Justin Long) and
Monty (
Ryan Reynolds) are two longtime friends who work as waiters as Shenanigan's, a self-consciously "fun" chain restaurant. Both have been working at the restaurant since they graduated from high school; it's only recently occurred to
Dean that he has nothing to show for the last four years of his life but a community college diploma and his name tag from work, and he's developed a sudden urgency to make something of himself.
Monty, on the other hand, is more interested in making time with the women on the wait staff at work than accomplishing anything, though his recent relationship with fellow employee
Serena (
Anna Faris) has rather dramatically crashed and burned. Over the course of an evening at Shenanigan's,
Dean and
Monty confront obnoxious customers and train timid new employee
Mitch (
John Francis Daley) while dealing with wildly eccentric chef
Raddimus (
Luis Guzman), control-freak manager
Dan (
David Koechner), and a kitchen full of crazed cooks, prep workers, and dish-washers.
Waiting was the first feature film from writer and director
Rob McKittrick.
