Prime John Cusack fare.

Rating: 7/10 (15 March 2000)

As one might expect, this is NOT your garden variety romantic comedy. It's quirky, often a bit odd, but fairly engrossing throughout. John Cusack offers a fine performance as vinyl record store owner Rob Gordon, and overall the acting is very good.
Jack Black and Todd Louiso are standouts as Rob's over-the-edge employees, and Iben Hjejle (how do you pronounce that?!?) is genuine and attractive as the primo love interest (Laura).
This is the kind of "little" movie that can be endearing to some. It won't exactly rock your world, and will probably do only modestly at the box office.
