Wordiezett So much average

GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious

BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

William H Martin Blank (Cusak) goes home for his 10 year high school reunion. Tracks down his high school flame (Driver) and tries to win her heart once again. The catch is, he's a hired hit man working his last job before hanging it all up. I know right, didn't see that one coming. Wonderful comedic scenes mashed throughout with witty dialog. Nice supporting cast that add an element of entertainment I wasn't expecting. You won't be disappointed.

macca-missbookworm If you are at all into interested in the following sections of assassination films, with a dark humor meshed with it, classic 90s films and John Cusack you will love this movie. I was intrigued just from the trailer. I watched it and you can see why John is such a successful and great actor, he puts all his effort into films and it just makes them better. I loved the humor of this film, its quite dark, so not to everyone's taste, but I laughed my head off.

Tweekums Martin Blank is a hit-man so understandably when he gets an invitation to go to his high school reunion he isn't that keen to go; it's not the sort of job one can talk about. Then he gets hired to kill somebody in his old home town he decides he might attend after all. He returns to the town of Grosse Pointe and soon starts bumping into people he knew. He also seeks out his old girlfriend, Debi, who hasn't forgotten how he disappeared the night he was supposed to take her to the Senior Prom. It is clear that his heart is no longer in his work; he hasn't even opened the dossier on his target. He isn't the only killer in town; there is also Grocer, a fellow hit-man upset that Blank won't join his new 'Hitmen's Union', a couple of government agents and an assassin who has been hired to kill Blank because he accidentally blew up somebody's dog! As the night of the school reunion approaches it is clear that the evening is going to be a bit more exciting than most people expected… especially for Debi when she learns Martin wasn't joking about his job.This film is a delightful, if somewhat amoral comedy. The central concept is rather fun as it provides some decent action, plenty of laughs and even a romance. John Cusack does a fine job as Martin, making him likable despite what we see him doing and Minnie Driver impresses as Debi. Dan Aykroyd provides laughs in just about every scene he appears in, as Grocer. There are also nice turns from Joan Cusack as Martin's secretary and Alan Arkin as his reluctant psychiatrist. The film may be set in the nineties but the 'ten year reunion' provides the perfect excuse for a solid eighties soundtrack. Given the nature of the film there is inevitably a fair about of violence; most of it isn't too disturbing, some is actually quite funny… the only disturbing moment is when a character is killed with a pen. Overall I'd certainly recommend this to anybody looking for a good black comedy.

rodrig58 A total complete bullshit with this guy called John Cusack, who distributed in the film his sister, Joan Cusack, like in a dozen of other films. He has absolutely nothing from a killer profile, as he has nothing also from the profile of an actor. A waste of time and a wasted talent of Alan Arkin, a real good actor, used here in a small role as a psychiatrist. The entire film, which is produced by John Cusack's New Crime Productions, in association with two other companies, looks like a family movie, filmed on the 10th anniversary of the high school. Opportunity for "Cusack the killer" to return to his homeland and to his former abandoned girlfriend. Actually, I wanted to watch again "Point Blank" (1967) with LEE MARVIN but, on this site found on the internet, it's uploaded by mistake and unwillingly this.
