Synopsis: Amazon.comHit man Martin Q. Blank (John Cusack) is in an awkward situation. Several of them, actually. He’s attending his high school reunion on an assignment; he’s got a rival hit man (Dan Aykroyd) on his tail; and he’s going to have to explain to his old girlfriend (Minnie Driver) why he stood her up on prom night. This amiable black comedy, cowritten by Cusack and directed by Jonathan Demme protégé George Armitage (Miami Blues), has the feel of Demme’s Something Wild and Married to the Mob–which is to say its humor is dark and brightly colored at the same time. Cusack and Driver are utterly charming–as is the leading man’s sister, Joan, who plays his secretary. (Ms. Cusack received an Oscar nomination for her next role, in In & Out.) Alan Arkin is also very funny as Martin’s psychiatrist. –Jim EmersonProduct DescriptionHere’s the killer comedy hit that’s loaded with outrageous fun!
