A classic in my book

Man, I really love this black comedy. It's very well put together, with many great performances and a dialogue that is very well-written. The action is brilliant aswell - you'll definitely see some cool stuff here. The soundtrack consists of many nice tunes from the 80's, that lift the film even higher. Well, you just can't go wrong with this one - A classic in my book.

"Mirror in the Bathroom"

Perpetually phenomenal every time I see it! Among one of John Cusack's best roles, I would've loved to have seen this in theaters, and I hope it gets a rerelease via fathom events at some point. This has one of the best soundtracks, an exquisite cast, some badass moments, and some fairly good writing. Really deserves praise and appreciation! I'm always intrigued by this sweet hitman movie whenever I get a chance to see it.

"Don't kill anybody for a few days. See what it feels like".

No angst driven plot here over one's choice of profession; even when Martin (John Cusack) is seeing his shrink (Alan Arkin),I never got the idea that he was all that overwrought about killing people for a living. The absurdity of the film occurs at the Ultramart shoot-out with a clueless clerk oblivious to the gunfire and smashing merchandise around him while absorbed in his own games of violence. Cleverly done.

With the backdrop of a ten year high school reunion, this one takes the idea of educational achievement and stands it on it's head. Career pinnacles are exemplified by car salesmen and radio DJ's, while Martin Blank's admission as a professional killer is received as nonchalantly as a traveling salesman.

See this one as much for the supporting cast as the principal players (Cusack and Minnie Driver). Dan Ackroyd is priceless as The Grocer, Hank Azaria attempts a principled government agent, and Benny Urquidez is a menacing counter-assassin on the make for Blank. Throw in Jeremy Piven for good measure as Martin's neurotic high school buddy and you've got yourself an hour and a half of psychotic assassination humor. Definitely not to be confused with 1997's "You Kill Me', which didn't.
