Confused? Commitment problems? Watch this film!

Rating: 9/10 (18 November 2000)

Personally, I think Cusack is one of the great actors, you always know it's him, there's no disguising that, but you believe everything he says and everything he does, and once again, he does it extremely well. It's easy to identify with this character, or I thought it was. Never having read the Hornby book I found the film very insightful, at times funny and, if you have your girlfriend sitting next to you, sometimes scary. A definite feel good movie, but we all need that, and this delivers but without being too corny or cheesey. A very good film that asks you questions that you've always asked yourself anyway, if you're a guy that is. Yet don't be scared by that statement, it's still a highly entertaining film, with very funny performances from all the record shop staff.
