Perfect Movie
11 January 2014
I think that Grosse Point Blank is a perfect movie. I have to admit I didn't get the title until after I watched the movie and somebody had to remind me that the name of the city in Michigan where he went back to was Grosse Point, then I got the word play of the title, I guess I just wasn't paying attention enough during the movie. But I've seen it several times since and it's always great! John Cusack is amazing in this as a hit man who has professional troubles and goes home for his high school reunion, where things are obviously awkward with Minnie Driver, the high school sweetheart he left behind. The soundtrack of this movie is really amazing with some fantastic songs from the 1980s. Dan Aykroyd is great as a chubby rival hit-man who wants to start a hit-man "union" and Alan Arkin as the therapist who doesn't really want to be the therapist and Joan Cusack as John's capable assistant/secretary are both also perfect in their supporting roles. Great, great movie!
