Title: Gives Music Lovers a Bad Name
Review: There are two types of people: people who truly love music, and people who want other people to *know* that they truly love music. The shallow characters in "High Fidelity" consist of the second group of people.I saw this movie when it was originally released, and it was excruciating to sit through for the most part. Thinking about even trying to sit through it again is painful.We get it, Jack Black, you're obnoxious. Now go away.John Cusack is usually great in everything he does, but his character in "High Fidelity" is just a totally unlikeable and uninteresting person. The fact that he is unlikeable is established within the first few scenes - so that means you're stuck for an hour and a half watching someone who is unlikeable and not interesting. Sounds like a recipe for a good time, right?Skip this.
