Hilarious!
Anyone who has ever wanted to get an ex back can relate to this movie. John Cusack plays a broken hearted fool too well! He plays Rob Gordon, the owner of a small Chicago record store. He and his two employees (Jack Black, Too Louiso) are obsessed with music, vinyl, and making TOP 5 lists of everything: bands, music, songs, albums, relationships, etc. Meanwhile, Rob is trying to win back his girlfriend who left him for their hemp-smoking-ponytailed-tree-hugging-nieghbor, Ian. The break-up forces him to look back on his TOP 5 break-ups of all time, examine them, and find out what exactly went wrong (some of his ex's include Catherine Zeta-Jones & Lisa Bonet).
This movie is hilarious up until the last second. John Cusack is great, and this is the movie that really made me like Jack Black as an actor. If you're into music, or have ever been dumped, or just like watching good movies, watch this one.

what a loser
This movie is very sad.The poor guy crys about his woman leaving him moaning to the audience about how cool she is,gets her back,then cheats on her.This guy is so whipped it awful.she treats him like a yo-yo and his mommas boy ass keeps taking it like a punk.This is not my idea of a romantic film.

Another Great John Cusack Movie
"High Fidelity" is a romantic comedy with the ever famous John Cusack one-of-a-kind touch. John plays a bumbed out high school dropout who tries to find the truth in relationships while managing his own record store. The movie, which features fresh-on-the-scene actor Jack Black (who gives one of the most hilarious supporting roles ever), and the Cosby show's Lisa Bonet also gives small roles to big names like Tim Robbins, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Lili Taylor and of course John's award-winning older sister Joan Cusack. John Cusack steals the show with his well known anxious and often frantic on-screen persona, and I dont think you know just how much you might relate to some of the scenes and dialogue until you see it. Much like John's 1999 release "Pushing Tin" (also a great movie), the movie features plenty of background side comments and conversation, no matter how small or insignificant, that just make watching the film less like viewing a daytime soap, and more like talking with friends at the local bar. The movie's got some really memorable moments too, like being inside John Cusack's confused head during a confrontation with Tim Robbins, and sweet little Joan Cusack we all thought we knew for years expands her on-screen vocabulary for just a second (also giving a terrific as usual but rather small performance). This movie is just more proof that if you go to see a movie staring John Cusack, it's guaranteed to have a great comediic flow-thru and aim you in the exact direction its meant to. Thumbs up to the cast and a great director...(wonder who that could be?).
