Grosse Pointe Blank Reviews

I just might stop to check you out
Bizarre mixture of hired assassin action film and romantic comedy is well done and pretty entertaining. John Cusack is likeable, as always, as the hired assassin who heads home to Grosse Pointe after a long absence under the ruse of attending a class reunion, though he has been hired to make a hit. Minnie Driver plays the girl he admired in high school and who has no idea what he has been doing ever since. Toss in an 80's soundtrack and you've got yourself a film that should appeal to pretty much every thirtysomething. While the assassination subplots bring a fresh ingredient to the genre and is an integral part of the story, the emphasis is on the romance and comedy. As such, the assassin subplot serves as a distraction by the film's close; however, the script is so engaging one might not notice. The violence isn't very graphic, though adult language keeps this from being suitable for kids. The DVD is okay, though nothing special.

Love John Cusack?
This is a must if you love John Cusack. Classic lines that will become part of your everyday vocabulary abound! The soundtrack is also a must!
