  My partner, after seeing it for the first time just now: “Wait, it’s over? Where’s the scene where he stands with the boombox over his head?”

  one of the most unbearable male characters i have ever encountered, but i do rate the fact he organises his records autobiographically... might do that too

  I am in the minority of people who don't like this movie. It just didn't click with me.

  Top 5 reasons why:
  1.John Cusack's character is incredibly annoying and him breaking the fourth wall has no real place or need in the story, which is lackluster by itself.
  2.All relationships were incredibly boring. Only his current one with Laura was okay.
  3.The editing was bad in my opinion. It was really boring at times and it lasted way too long.
  4.No emotional or a connection of any kind with the characters.
  5.Can everyone please stop whining? Gosh!

  There are 2 good things about this movie though. First, I really liked the scenes in the record shop and i wish the whole movie took place there. Second, the soundtrack was mostly awesome.

  Here it goes.

  Top five reasons why I loved this film:

  2. John Cusack. He does such a brilliant job in playing a single and lonely individual, who longs and reminisces about his past relationships. God, he is totally lovable and I cannot think of anyone who could have done justice to this role like he did. And the first person narrative makes it that much more intimate and…
