What was John Cusak's last great film?

[Fire Walk With Me]

Or "Other", of course.

[mitchum]

1. That one where he played a boy-man and took a sensitive and solitary walk

Y'know, that one

[Fire Walk With Me]

2. A most excellent selection.

The one where he was a bit broody? I can't select which one that is...

[Swede]

8. And it rained on him,

[Eyerish]

3. Other...

"High Fidelity"
Just about everything after and including "america's sweethearts" is crap.

"Identity" wasn't horrible, but it wasn't one of his greatests.

[WCGreen]

30. Serendipity was cute....

Romantic without being maudlin.

[mikeytherat]

4. Better Off Dead

[Fire Walk With Me]

5. Great film but ouch...

that's going back a ways! :rofl:

[Fire Walk With Me]

6. Oh dear, 31 views but no votes...looks like we'll HAVE to go back a ways on this one!

I really liked Grace is Gone. :shrug:

[PassingFair]

7. High Fidelity.

His best, IMO...

but I always LIKE him.

Except in "must love dogs".

He stank up the screen in that one.

[Lance_Boyle]

14. Seconded.

How could anyone rate that epic turd "2012" as a decent movie at all?

[jobycom]

19. Maybe Jack Black's last great film, too. Unless you count Kung Fu Panda.

ANd you should count Kung Fu Panda. :)

[Forkboy]

9. Tapeheads.

[Fire Walk With Me]

10. Any ordinary man would have given it up by now.

:hi:

[Forkboy]

13. heh...one of the most quotable movies of all time.

Josh is a visionary, he doesn't deal in antiquated verbosity!

:)

[geardaddy]

11. Other

Grosse Point Blank.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

12. Being John Malkovich. nt

[Orrex]

15. That's his peak

All else is forgettable.

[MiddleFingerMom]

16. I agree with "High Fidelity"...

.
...as an EXCEPTIONAL film for him. Gotta admit I've seen NONE of the others.
.
.
.
Jack Black has been a HUGE disappointment for me after first seeing his genius "potential" in
that movie.
.

[Common Sense Party]

17. Grosse Pointe Blank

[Patsy Stone]

18. That's correct.

But for its completely wonderful cheesiness, I might spot him Con Air.

[Flaxbee]

21. yes.

Even High Fidelity, meh. GPB was the best.

[Red State Rebel]

29. Yep! Love it!

[jobycom]

20. I'm going with The Ice Harvest.

Don't know why it didn't work for others, but I liked it. Dark, strange, and almost no redeeming characters whatsoever.

"He actually threatened to shoot Gladys if I didn't tell him where the money was. But I think he was counting on a level of commitment and affection between her and me that just simply wasn't there."

[av8rdave]

22. That is one of my favorite movie lines

[jobycom]

23. yeah, and Billy Bob delivered it perfectly.

Takes his special brand of cold assholery to make it work. :)

[GreenPartyVoter]

24. I don't know this one. Is it like

"Bandits," "Matchstick Men," and "The Mexican?" I like movies like that.

[jobycom]

25. I haven't seen any of those.

I remember The Mexican and Matchstick Men from the previews, but they didn't look much like The Ice Harvest. It was a cross between modern film noir and some of the Coen Brothers' darker works--which come to think of it are pretty much modern film noir anyway. I guess I'd compare it to "The Man Who Wasn't There," loosely. I'm not saying it was too original to compare to anything--it wasn't--I'm just lousy at comparisons. :)

[GreenPartyVoter]

26. I liked Fargo, if that helps any. :^)

[Fire Walk With Me]

27. Then you'll probably enjoy "The Ice Harvest". Great film. Really good stuff.

:hi:

[GreenPartyVoter]

28. I'll have to check it out then, thanks. :^)

[Lindsey]

31. High Fidelity. n/t

[Nailzberg]

32. High Fidelity

He's done some great stuff, but that's the last one that I really felt connected with.

[Richard Steele]

33. Trick question. "Last Great Film" assumes he had a first 'Great Film'. He didn't.

Not yet, anyway.

I think he's gonna have one someday.
