Description

Grosse Pointe Blank - English/French DVD- Here's the killer comedy hit that's loaded with outrageous fun! For Martin Blank (John Cusack -- HIGH FIDELITY, SERENDIPITY), a hit man stuck in a career rut, attending his 10-year high school reunion is about the last thing he's in the mood for! But when the prospects of rekindling an old flame (Minnie Driver -- GOOD WILL HUNTING) and pulling off one final job convince him to go, things are looking up ... that is, until Martin's arch rival (Dan Aykroyd) shows up aiming to blow the competition away! For hilarious comedy entertainment that's packed with action, GROSSE POINTE BLANK is a surefire knockout! High Fidelity - DVD- From the guys who brought you GROSSE POINTE BLANK comes the absolutely hilarious HIGH FIDELITY. John Cusack (BEING JOHN MALKOVICH) stars as Rob Gordon, the owner of a semi-failing record store located on one of the back streets of Chicago. He sells music the old-fashioned way -- on vinyl, with two wacky clerks, the hysterically funny rock snob Barry (Jack Black) and the more quietly opinionated underachiever Dick (Todd Luiso). But Rob's business isn't the only thing in his life that's floundering -- his needle skips the love groove when his longtime girlfriend Laura (newcomer Iben Hjejle) walks out on him. And this forces him to examine his past failed attempts at romance the only way he knows how! For a rocking fun time, give HIGH FIDELITY a spin. It's sure to make your all-time top five list for comedies -- with a bullet.

Cusack is priceless.......2005-04-04

You cannot go wrong with John Cusack....

These are two of my favorite movies of the last ten years...

It isn't the writing which was excellent in both cases, but the casting. You cannot go wrong with John Cusack. The rest of the cast in both movies are just sublime. Jerry Piven and Joan Cusack are wonderful, Jack Black blew up in his role in "High Fidelity". However, the cream of the crop has got to be Dan Ackroyd. I think his role in "Grosse Pointe Blank may have been the highlight of an excellent career.

Cusack at his best.......2001-10-15

Both "Grosse Pointe Blank" and "High Fidelity" are great pieces of work. They use wonderfully entertaining dialogue with Cusack performing seamlessly with the rest of the cast. The dark comedy in "Blank" will bounce off the painstaking soul searching in "Fidelity." See them now if you never have, and enjoy two intelligent films.

One is great, one is awful.......2001-09-01

Grosse Pointe Blank is one of the funniest movies of the decade. It is well acted, written and directed.

High Fidelity is a mistake. I think it should have been cast differently (and saved John Cusack the pain of being in this embarassing movie!). I literally got a headache from watching High Fidelity. [....] UGH!

One High! One Low!.......2001-05-23

An explosion of a film! John Cusack,Joan Cusack, Minnie Driver, & Dan Akroyd give all they got in this movie. YOu have a hitman who gets an invitation to his ten year high school reunion and at the same time has to do a hit there, and then bumps into Minnie Driver and has to explain to her as to why he stood her up. While trailing behing him is Dan akroyd trying to knock him off as well. A Funny dark comedy that keeps your attention from beginning to end. This Dvd has High Great sound and the picture quality is awesome on my 5.1 Sony SS-TS300 Outstanding Sound! Get this version.P.S John Cusack's role in high fidelity was a mistake.A Long boring movie (Not Good)! If you want a laugh keep your eyes on Jack Black, also in saving silverman.
