I'm not sure what to make of a film like this. Grosse Pointe Blank throws a bunch of different genres together, which suggests that it's a relatively original, surprising experience, but the contrary seems true. It's a bland, lifeless narrative where nothing stands out and everything feels derivative. I'm not a John Cusack fan, which may have something to do with my apathetic reaction to this film. He's annoying, has no charm, no chemistry with Driver either. The crime and action elements are bland and negligible, the romance is a complete dud and the comedy rarely hits the mark. As for the direction, Armitage is completely invisible. A pretty bad film. Read all
