Customer Ratings & Reviews

This one really surprised me. I thought the movie was going to be really bad, and boy was I wrong. A very enjoyable film, and well worth a watch. John Cusack's best performance since 'Better Off Dead'. The only setback to this dvd is that it is a bare-bones letterbox widescreen release (non-anamorphic), it should have received a lot more attention.

This movie is my basis for comparison when I see movies come out that fall into the hitman/dark comedy genre. Usually I am left disappointed, but at least I always have this one to fall back on.

This film was good, I like it. It had a lot of things you dont normally see in films. I loved the end scene. I dont want to give it away so I wont. Its a nice movie for a sunday afternoon.

Great movie, better picture and sound... whats not to like?

This movie is a terrific comedy with a star filled cast.

I went into a local store to check out the packaging for this 2-disc re-release, hoping that Disney would finally release a DVD of Grosse Pointe Blank with a new 16x9 anamorphic transfer. This new disc appears to be the same disc that was released in 1998, and NOT a new anamorphic widescreen transfer. On the back of the package, it still lists "Dolby Digital Surround Sound" and "1.85:1 Widescreen," the same as it did on the original DVD (and the combo GBP/High Fidelity disc that came out later). The new 2-disc release for "High Fidelity" lists the same bonus features as its original release, and showed as "Enhanced for 16x9 Televisions." It appears the only difference between this release and the original 1998 issue is a second disc with a digital copy for portable video players and updated packaging. I didn't end up buying it based on the packaging and won't until they release a proper version for 16x9 televisions (hopefully a Blu-ray). I am extremely disappointed that Disney would even bother to re-release such an antiquated, low-quality DVD with only the most minor of improvements (packaging, digital copy). Even if they had not added any bonus features (the original release had none to speak of), an updated anamorphic transfer wouldn't be too much to ask. Will absolutely not buy a copy of Grosse Pointe Blank until a good-quality DVD or Blu-ray is made available.
