High Fidelity: Ouch

Wed, 28 Feb 2007 15:10:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author videodude - I really think if there's one kind of movie where men may not want their girlfriends to see, then don't look any further than High Fidelity. Arguably a star making role for John Cusack, whom as we all know has been breaking the hearts of many teenage...

High Fidelity: High Fidelity - the fat or less attractive guy looks better all the time

Tue, 1 Jun 2004 23:10:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author CyndiA - Girlfriends . . . you want to watch High Fidelity. This is a movie where you get inside a guy’s head and see what makes the other half tick. Well, it’s a chance to see what makes a hot guy tick anyway. Guys who aren’t chick magnets generally can’t...

High Fidelity: A Movie For the Ages

Fri, 16 Jan 2004 21:55:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author anavrin27 - There are many movies that attempt to capture the thought process of the average male, only to make them out to be unfeeling, crass, sports obsessed morons. This opinion coming from a girl! Just look at such "gems" as Dude Where's My Car or American Pie...

High Fidelity: A Movie for Sad Bastards (Lean-n-Mean Write-Off)

Tue, 26 Nov 2002 23:33:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mashimaru - John Cusack plays Rob Gordon, a thirty-ish angst-filled owner of a used record store in Chicago. As in many of his other films, Mr. Cusack has rumpled hair, his mouth is slightly open at all times, and he looks, well, vaguely unhealthy. Rob seems to...

High Fidelity: High on My List of Favorites

Mon, 29 Apr 2002 14:53:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PacManY2J - This is the story of an unambitious music lover who is constantly reflecting and wondering how past screw-ups could have been prevented. Jeez, it’s eerie how autobiographical that sounds. But this isn’t my story – it’s the life of the main character in...

High Fidelity: Why I didn't like this movie

Mon, 25 Mar 2002 20:06:51 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mattny - It was a dreary Saturday afternoon, I had nothing to do so I headed to the video store. When I got there I scanned the new releases when I found the movie High Fidelity. I checked out of the box and rented, hoping for a humorous John Cusack comedy. I...

High Fidelity: This is not the definitive music geek movie, sorry.

Sat, 16 Mar 2002 17:57:29 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jugglhed - I'm probably as representative of the 'target audience' for this film as anyone. Here are my stats: White, male, 32, music-obsessed. I was a college radio DJ/music snob, and even today I DJ at a local community radio station, long after my fellow...

High Fidelity: High Fidelity : Relationships are painful sometimes, but never this funny!

Sun, 15 Jul 2001 18:39:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rootwarrior - High Fidelity has become one of my favorites ever since I saw it in theatres for the first time. It takes three everyday life elements that effect most people and puts them together. Music, romance, and work all come together into this one man's...

High Fidelity: How To Propose In 113 Minutes

Thu, 28 Jun 2001 03:46:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ParisLemon - Say Anything?

I enjoyed this movie, it was like a better version of Empire Records woven with a Cameron Crowe formula type deal. Now Cameron Crowe didn't direct this movie, but it sure seems like he did. It's an interesting take on...

High Fidelity: "Top Five Breakups of Rob Gordon" or "How to Wallow in Misery"

High Fidelity: Saying Goodbye to the All Time Top Five

Sat, 14 Apr 2001 16:48:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author nathantyree - Stephen Frears is known for gritty films like The Grifters, so when I heard he was directing a romantic comedy I figured it was a terrible mismatch. I was wrong.

High Fidelity resonates with something virtually all men over...

High Fidelity: High Fidelity - My feelings of ambivalence

Sat, 31 Mar 2001 21:02:00 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author RayneStorm - Everyone has movies that they either love or hate, and then there are those movies that fit somewhere in between. For me, classifying “High Fidelity” between love and hate is suggesting that I cared for the movie more than I did. In essence, I would...

High Fidelity: OH! THE PLEASURES OF MASOCHISM! Frears comes up with much more than you think.

Wed, 21 Mar 2001 22:00:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author samadhi - HIGH FIDELITY-a very funny film and yet quite complex if you're inclined to dig deeper. Go rent it if you haven't seen it people or better yet buy the excellent DVD.

These comments were written in part while listening to Zeni Geva's `Autopsy...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ferrisgirl82 - this movie came into theaters quite awhile ago, and all the people i trust with my movie-life told me i should see it. and since i wanted to, this was good. but what was bad was that all these people had already seen it, and nobody was ready to go back...

High Fidelity: The best film of 2000

Tue, 2 Jan 2001 22:40:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Chad9976 - Don't you just love movies where the characters and their situations remind you of your own life? No movie can replicate your life verbatim, but those that have realistic characters in realistic situations speaking realistic dialogue are my favorites...

High Fidelity: Not very funny and hard to follow

Tue, 2 Jan 2001 14:28:08 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author JGuynn - Being a big fan of John Cusack (Grosse Point Blank, One Crazy Summer, Better Off Dead, etc) when I saw this was coming on Pay Per View my wife and I nuked a bowl of popcorn and settled in to be entertained by one of the best. Little did I know that less...

High Fidelity: John Cusack knows what he is good at.

Sun, 31 Dec 2000 23:59:54 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chris_Maverick - Much like Grosse Pointe Blank (a film by the same team as High Fidelity), this film takes advantage of John Cusack's skills.

Cusack is the everyman. In the 80s he appeared in a slew of teen love comedy's that a whole generation learned to...

High Fidelity: Highly Funny

Thu, 28 Dec 2000 20:46:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Cat1110 - What ever happened to the days of the "brat pack," and movies like Breakfast Club and Sixteen Candles?? They were so shallow, yet so enjoyable! High Fidelity reminds me of those days....

Honestly, the cast makes the movie. Some...

High Fidelity: Cusack scores big in small role....again

Thu, 28 Dec 2000 06:43:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eh2zed - John Cusack in my opinion has been one of the best "unknown" actors of the last decade. He appears in film after film that mainstream movie goers don't see but true film fans do (see Grosse point blank). High Fidelity is another of those...

Wed, 20 Dec 2000 13:43:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bbwlori - Have you ever watched David Letterman, where he does that top ten things list?? Well our lovable Rob Gordon(John Cusack) does a top five list for just about everything, top five cover bands, top five fantasy jobs, and of course he has a top five...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mr-ooozy - Ever see one of those movies where you watch the first half and say "Oh God, this movie is awesome!" ......and then ...... the second half comes. The second half isn't necessarily bad, it's simply so similar to the first half that it ends up...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TRISMEGISTOS - I can't believe I forgot for five weeks to review this DVD. (smacks forehead)

"High Fidelity" is exactly that: a romantic comedy with teeth. One of the first things that struck me about this movie work atmosphere in the business...

High Fidelity: High Fidelity Is Top 5 For Sure

Sun, 17 Dec 2000 18:50:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author chad8246 - I never got around to seeing High Fidelity at the theater and I sure wish I had. It’s a fabulous film and it goes to show how talented John Cusack is as an actor. He teams up with Stephen Fears of Grifters fame (which is an excellent movie in its own...
