Grosse Pointe Blank (1997)

Best film of the H.S. reunion genre. Dark & hilarious. I can't think of anyone other than Cusack who can make a professional killer affable, lovable even. Also, the soundtrack is the best thing that ever happened. ALL YES.

Grosse Pointe Blank (1997)

Probably my favorite Cusack film. This indie darling is filled with darkly comic moments and dialogue. John Cusack pulled off his angsty hitman character better than almost anyone could have seen coming. If you haven't seen it, wait no longer.
