Grosse Pointe Blank

(15)

Grosse Pointe Blank is the witty, dark comedy starring John Cusack that's being hailed by both critics and audiences for its outlandish plot and irreverent humour! Unlike his High School friends who become respected professionals, Martin Blank (Cusack) found a lucrative career as a hit man. But the job has lost its appeal and Martin faces an uncertain future. Now, he finds himself back in his home town of Grosse Pointe to attend his ten-year High School reunion complete one last "job" and take another shot at rekindling a romance with the girl he stood up on prom night (Minnie Driver). With Dan Aykroyd as a hilarious rival assassin who wants Martin to join a "union", Grosse Pointe Blank is a killer comedy loaded with action and laughs.

This is truly one of the great modern movies. The acting is sublime and John Cusack is so good you end up sympathising with a hit man going through a mid life crisis. I love this movie.
