Yes, it's John Cusack again! My only true movie star idol. But he's got some other great folks in there too, like Jack Black.

I watched this movie in the theater alone the first time, because I couldn't get anyone to committ to seeing it with me, and I really wanted to see it. I liked it a lot then.

But sometimes it makes a difference, to see a movie with someone and discuss it. This movie ended up being much better when I watched the DVD with a music nerd friend last night. It was AWESOME! we were poking one another to laugh at all the parts that were so true.

Who doesn't go over their relationships like Rob Gordon(played by Cusack)? His Xes were just classic, too. He hit so many classic relationship dynamics.

In the movie, the judge of a good movie would be how discussable it was afterwards. You know, how many things sprung to mind after you saw it. Things that just made you chuckle to yourself spontaneously. or things that made you turn and ask the person you're with a weird question.

I was going all that night and the next day with fuel on this movie.

Cusack didn't let me down on this one.
