Summary

Dr. Brandon Devito has commissioned us to watch the 1997 comedy/thriller mashup, "Grosse Pointe Blank", starring John Cusack and Minnie Driver. It tells the tale of a hitman with a troubled conscience, or maybe just a feeling of ennui that has him returning to his home town for his tenth high school reunion and coincidentally reuniting with his old sweetheart. The action is surprisingly great, the sound track is fantastic, the fashion is decidedly 90's, and the tone is quirky and all over the place, but it only hit one of us in just the right place. Thanks again, Dr. Devito! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
