A different type of movie for the Hollywood mainstream, this is original and refreshing.
John Cusack plays a hitman hired for a job in his home town. He's also emotionally troubled, and still obsesses about an old flame he jilted some years previously. As it happens, his High School reunion is taking place at the same time as the job he has been hired for, so he hopes to kill two birds with one stone, as it were.
Witty, fast paced and unpredictable, this is a pleasant surprise.
