What we thought
A hilarious film that I’m sure you chaps will enjoy. Rob Gordon (John Cusack) chases up all his exes, to find out why all his relationships have failed. Grimacingly realistic, you’ll sympathise with him at many a stage for his inadequacy and humiliation. His employees Barry and Dick contribute enormously to the comedy value of this fantastic film.
What they thought
John Cusack (Con Air, 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, with his two wacky clerks – the hysterically funny rock snob Barry (Jack Black) and the more quietly opinionated underachiever Dick (Todd Louiso). 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…
