Grosse Pointe Blank Review
This is an offbeat, very likeable film about a hitman (John_Cusack) who takes an assignment in his hometown, where he is also due to attend a reunion dance. While he's there, he gets an opportunity to take stock of himself, make amends with the woman (Minnie_Driver) he stood up on prom night, and figure out just which way his life is going to go. Considering that its subject is a professional assassin, Grosse Pointe Blank is for the most part a surprisingly warm and gentle film, with some fun supporting turns from Joan_Cusack and Alan_Arkin. It only goes astray near the end, when it lapses into a formula shoot-out, but is still worthwhile and highly entertaining. Robert Firsching, Rovi
