One of the funniest movies I've ever seen!, 2008-10-15
I bought this movie because I remembered watching it when I was younger, and thought my son might like to see it. He, and I have watched it about 7 or 8 times since we received it. He loves it as much as I did when I was his age. John Cusack is so funny! It really is a great movie if you like over the top comedy.

One of the best movies ever... just classic. I feel for anyone bashing this movie. Cusack is great, the french chick is hot and Ricky is hiliarious. Yeah, its shallow and goofy but in a damn good way. br / br /Buy it. br / br /

Better Off Dead, 2008-09-08
John Cusack has had a marvelous career and continues to improve his talent, more in dramatic roles like "1408" these days. As a young man he played in a number of comedies and this is certainly a good one. When his girlfriend breaks up with him he thinks it's the end of the world. The fact that just about everything in his room has her picture on it let's us in on the fact he may be slightly over the edge. To say he was slightly obsessed with her is putting it mildly. Eventually he meets a foreign exchange student and she helps him through his crisis. Her reason for seeking out John is twofold. She thinks he's funny and the family she is living with is mental. The mother wants her to be her sons girlfriend and he still plays with dolls and would give Porky Pig a run for his money at the food trough. When it looks like John will get his old girlfriend back we see the age old question of the two "H's", hormones or honesty. Fun movie especially for fans of 80's movies. Good quality DVD, but no extras. Good replayability. If you enjoyed this catch "Say Anything" and "National Lampoon's Van Wilder". br / br /CA Luster

Flash Back to the 80's!!!, 2008-09-01
WOW!!! What a classic Cusack film! He was SO young... SO cute... SO Cusack! This hilarious tale follows the hopeless romantic on his quest for a revengeful death... or lack thereof. With timeless characters, colorful cartoons and questionable food, your eyes won't be bored with all the visual delights. Not to mention the outlandish comments and situations everyone finds themselves in. Definite knee slapper!!! ;) br / br /"Two dollars!" - CLASSIC!!!
