Title: More than 5 reasons to avoid this movie
Review: There are numerous reasons to avoid this movie but i will only list the obvious ones. High Fidelity is about an underachieving, self pitying, sarcastic record store owner (played by Cusack) who just broke up with a long time girlfriend. Cusack's character then spends the rest of the movie trying to figure out what went wrong. Cusack gives an ok performance primarily because he has played the same character in at least 4 other movies. The rest of the cast is quite forgettable including the irritating Jack Black and the usually funny Tim Robbins. The plot is very thin and the script is just not funny (yes I did understand the "humour" in the musical references). Even the soundtrack is a letdown in this film. High Fidelity is a bad romantic comedy which lacks romance and humor. Actually the only thing missing from this bad romantic comedy is Meg Ryan.
Is the review positive or negative?
