Just got home from seeing High Fidelity, John Cusacks new movie. HILARIOUS!! Bust a gut in parts and totally moved by others. GREAT soundtrack and GREAT supporting performers. MANY cameos that will surprise. All in all a big winner in my book. I see two to three movies a month and this was one of the funniest in a loooonnngg time.

I totally agree hungreesman- thumbs up on High Fidelity. John Cusack is reliably great, and the rest of the cast- wow! Everyone was spot on.

I loved the scenes with John Cusack and his sister Joan. Though not playing brother/sister in the movie, their interchange was so obviously informed by their sibling relationship. It was hilarious!

Just saw it too. Great movie, especially if you've ever worked in a store like that. I kept looking in the rack of the store and going, I own that, and that, and that. Had that. Woulnd't own THAT on a bet! The attatudes of the clerks was so...familiar, too. Top 5 lists. Desert Island discs (now you see where my post came from. Misspent youth! LOL)
Anybody else work in a record store? (Maybe that should become a topic?)

Anybody see Empire Records? (Now #2 on my top 5 all-time record-store movie list)

Also just saw Pushing Tin. John Cusack plays a very similar character in that one. Anyone else notice that?
