[Q]: after a rather disappointing " mary railly " , stephen frears is now officially back in business with a comeback worthy of praise .
this is one of the best surprises of this season -- a sweet , small budget comedy with a big heart
.
in fact it 's not even a comedy .
it 's a drama or even more precise -- a clever satire on human relationships and needs .
based on a 1995 critically acclaimed novel by british author nick hornby , ` ` high fidelity ' ' is a wry and likable story about a man 's quest for fulfillment and happiness .
rob gordon was a dj .
it seems that he could make everything spin -- except his own life .
now he owns championship vinyl , a little musical store , somewhere in new york .
when he suddenly gets dumped by his girlfriend , a gorgeous blond attorney , life suddenly looses every purpose .
decimated , humiliated and on the verge of a mental ( and emotional ) breakdown , he starts meditating over his life and the way it could have been -- about what 's right and what 's important .
he starts " categorizing " life , dividing it into " top 5 lists " .
and the most important is the " top 5 list " over the most painful breakups of his life , starting with 5th grade , when he found his young girlfriend with another boy .
though you might think that people change , grow more mature with age , it just does n't seem that way and all rob 's relationships were different versions of that first .
where did he go wrong ?
was it he that screwed up ?
or maybe life just stinks ?
while he is lost in his own self - pity , he must think of the " top 5 list " over his needs for the future , find the right elements and mix his life together .
with clever parallels to the cult of celebrity , music and with incredibly direct narration , it addresses the average audience member , in other words -- people like you and me .
although a lot of this honor should be addressed to the screenwriter
_
_
_ _
_ _ and frears , the director , the acting is equally important as the written word .
and here john cusack should absolutely be mentioned .
he is simply superb .
it is as much his movie as it is frears ' .
the film would not be the same without him .
cusack -- whose character is sadder , wiser and 35 -- brings intelligence and warmth to post- mod irony .
most of his dialogue is delivered directly to the camera -- not an easy task -- but cusack pulls it off .
his interpretation feels so emotionally right , so incredibly realistic and precise
that frears ' message simply ca n't be ignored or overseen .
the other members of the cast do an equally remarkable job .
both
_
_
_ _ _
_ and jack black are fabulous .
even catherine zeta jones appears in a role where she actually acts , not just looks beautiful .
however , the most unexpected pleasant surprises is provided by todd louiso who delivers a spectacular comic performance as rob 's co - worker and friend dick .
this is such an impressive achievement that it 's almost worth
a oscar - nomination .
he is simply a joy to behold .
otherwise , everyone are in their place , and at the right time -- all part of frears ' colorful blend .
pretty much like edward norton 's " keeping the faith " , this film does n't follow any formula or belong to any genre
-- it 's dramatic , tragic , sarcastic , comic and even cynical , but never bitter or angry .
it 's a little bit of everything , pretty much like life itself .
nothing seems unreal or staged .
it reflects reality as a mirror .
as you watch it , you go through the same emotional problems as the main character .
you feel and think and reflect .
this effect has become a rarity nowadays .
although it 's primarily about the perils of love , ` ` high fidelity ' ' is secondarily about pop music .
rob owns championship vinyl and his employees , timid dick ( todd louiso ) and overbearing barry ( jack black ) , are fellow music snobs .
music is the language in their lives , the measure by which they define themselves and mark the significant events of their lives .
and so does the movie .
it is as much a musical film as anything else , as rob 's journey is wonderfully portrayed through carefully inserted musical fragments .
in the end , you have gained something while watching it .
it 's not the film of the century or even of the year .
it 's not an special effects extravaganza .
it does n't require big explosions or digital creatures to succeed .
it 's a small movie about the big things .
and even though it does not contain heavy philosophy , you feel as if you have experienced something of significance , and you will experience that nice warm feeling for quite some time .

[Q]: when i first heard that romeo & juliet had been " updated " i shuddered .
i thought that yet another of shakespeare 's classics had been destroyed .
fortunately , i was wrong .
baz luhrman has directed an " in your face " , and visually stunning piece with this film .
it revolves around the two rival families , who in this version each run multi - million dollar enterprises .
these rival companies / families are the capulet 's and the montague 's .
the younger generation of these two families have formed gangs , who despise one another .
as the storylines goes , romeo montague ( played by leonardo dicaprio ) and juliet capulet ( claire danes ) meet at a fancy dress party , and it is love at first site .
i never believed love at first site was possible until i saw this film ,
the scene in which romeo 's eyes meet juliet 's through the fish tank
is one of the most memorable .
of course , they can not publicly reveal their love , for their families are arch enemies .
so they marry in secret
, this is where things begin to go wrong .
the story , as with all good shakespeare , ends in tragedy .
the cinematography is spectacular to say the least , and the soundtrack provides the perfect atmosphere in which to " lay our scene " , as the film says .
there is very little to criticise .
the performances are convincing , and several of the film 's younger stars may find that it provides a launch for their careers .
the modernisation of the script is ingenious and clever .
despite the well known storyline , this latest version still manages to cause tears among many members of the audience ( especially the younger generation ) , and this is certainly a great credit to the film .

[Q]: 1989 's " major league " was a delightful surprise .
i did n't expect much of it when i decided to watch it on cable , but it proved to be fresh and funny .
however , when the appeal of a movie is its freshness , the sequels are virtually guaranteed to be stale .
that 's certainly true of " major league ii " and the most recent entry , " major league : back to the minors .
"
the title is , of course , a contradiction .
should n't it be " minor league ?
" that contradiction suggests the lengths to which writer / director john warren has gone to squeeze a third movie out of the formula established by the first movie .
original stars charlie sheen and tom berenger ( who returned for " major league ii " ) are not around , leaving corbin bernsen the only original headliner to make the third movie .
the other veterans who return ( dennis haysbert as voodoo - inspired batter cerrano and takaaki ishibashi as tanaka , who was introduced in " league ii " ) seem to be around just to lend legitimacy to the enterprise .
the only returning cast member who produces any laughs is bob uecker as radio announcer harry doyle ,
inexplicably broadcasting the games of a minor league team far from his home turf .
the protagonist this time around is retiring pitcher gus cantrell ( scott bakula ) , who is hired by minnesota twins owner roger dorn ( bernsen ) to manage the twins ' aaa team , the buzz .
you can write the movie from here
: he finds a group of misfits who need to learn how to play together as a team in order to win .
there 's a future superstar whose ego keeps him from growing ( walton goggins ) , an ex - ballet dancer ( kenneth johnson ) , a broken - down old timer ( thom barry ) , twin outfielders both named juan ( the difilippo triplets ) , and a couple pitchers with throwing problems ( judson mills and peter mackenzie ) . along the way , gus picks up cerrano and tanaka ( gus is supposedly an old teammate of theirs , even though he was n't in either of the preceding films ) .
sum total : none .
the entire enterprise is artificial , and the cast is not ready for the hollywood majors .
gus ' antagonist is twins manager leonard huff ( ted mcginley ) .
leonard is a slimy , sniveling little egotist , and the twins are lazy , spoiled , and full of themselves .
( even watching the first movie i wondered why any real - life team would lend itself to being caricatured in this manner ) .
gus challenges leonard to a match , the buzz vs .
the twins .
( wanna guess who wins ? )
" back to the minors " is a movie that has no reason to exist .
there 's hardly a laugh in it ,
the cast is weak , and the first movie left no room for even one sequel .
