Film travels well from London to Chicago

Rating: 8/10 (26 July 2000)

Against expectations, High Fidelity travels well across the Atlantic and the universal themes of anal retentive record collecting and useless blokes are relevant and familiar to any 30-something male. Stacks better than the other Hornby adaptation Fever Pitch, though covering much the same ground. The acting is uniformly excellent, Cusak being exceptional as ever.
