my youth, I love this one

Rating: 8/10 (14 August 2005)

Hey, So normally, unintelligent movies make me cry and rip my hair out. But I loved and always shall love Empire Records, because it's soundtrack, it's colorful antics/setting/wardrobes and beautiful (if not Oscar-worthy, not at the time of EMPIRE, anyways...sorry, Ms. Zellweger) cast overpower its lack of a deep, realistic, juicy storyline. I love Anthony Lapaglia, I love the quotes from this film (too many to list, really!) and I think there's no one more attractive than Johnny Lee Miller as "AJ the soulful artist, in love...", though Ethan Embry in his skaters doofballness is still cute, in my mind's eye.
Rent it and watch it with your girlfriends, then quote it forever til you annoy people.
It made me want to work in a record store:)
