Excellent plotline and cast!

Rating: 10/10 (3 January 2004)

Empire Records is a unique, hilarious movie that has been my favorite since I've seen it in 95. There's an intriguing and original plotline, yes, but the cast of characters really brought it to life. Liv Tyler plays the short-tempered Corey, Johnny Whitworth plays the adorable (A.K.A. hot) artist A.J., Ethan Embry (as Ethan Randall) plays the strange rocker Mark, Coyote Shivers plays the guitar playing Berko, and Anthony LaPaglia plays Joe, the manager of Empire Records, who brings it all together. This movie has a great soundtrack, and I especially liked the headbanging scenes. All in all, a great funny movie you can watch again and again.
