a5c7b9f00b Martin Blank is a contract hit man. After being in the business for five years, he is getting disillusioned with it, imposing himself on a therapist, Dr. Oatman, who is reluctant to help him through his issues because of his business. Part of his disillusionment is because of the changing nature of the business,witnessed by one of his fellow hit men, Grocer, wanting to form a cartel of sorts despite the inherent non-trust with each of the other hit men. Because of one of his contracts not having gone down quite according to plan, Martin is forced to take a job in Detroit for the same client pro bono. Marcella, who handles the administrative aspects of Martin's business, encourages him to attend his ten year high school reunion in Grosse Pointe in suburban Detroit while he's there anyway. Martin left Grosse Pointe the day of the graduation prom never having returned. In the process, he stood up his prom date and serious girlfriend at the time, Debi Newberry. While in Detroit/Grosse Pointe, Martin wants to forget about his hit man life and focus most specifically with reconnecting with Debi, who now worksa local radio host. Making it up to Debi may not beeasyMartin wants, despite both still being attracted to each other. But getting away from his hit man life may not be that easy eitherGrocer has tipped off the NSA to Martin's job, the two agents, Steven Lardner and Kenneth McCullers, who plan to take him in when they catch him in the process of the hit, but who contemplate taking him out themselves. In addition, Martin learns the hard way that someone else has taken a contract out on him. Martin's life becomes even more complicated when he learns who his contracted hit is.
Martin Blank and is a hitman with some emotional problems. He goes to a shrink who doesn't want him, and has had recurring dreams about his long lost love for 10 years since he stood her up on Prom night. When Blank gets an invitation to his School reunion he is originally dead against the idea, but when he is hired for a job in his home town he is forced to return home, and to face some old truths.
I believe this is the best intelligent comedy in years! Every single event is so real, so logical and so imaginable, and still it provides tons of laughs. John Cusack has cemented himselfmy favorite actor with this role.
Grosse Pointe Blank is one of those movies that catches you off guard, the type of film that you never expect to see and when you do, you really don't know how to take it. I love this film. The essential plot would seem to be that Cusack's character from all of his 80s teen-flicks (and face, they were all the same, depressed, alienated, yet fun character) grows up to be hit man and goes to his 10th high school reunion (coming up on my own this year, this film has particular resonance). <br/><br/>However, much of this is peripheral the scene chewing done by both Cusack and, surprisingly, Dan Akroyd (who puts in a stellar performancean assassin union organizer). The lovestory is cute and convincing, the sub-plot with Alan ArkinBlank's psychologist is beautiful, and the violence is surprisingly intense.<br/><br/>Now, this intense violence is what has garnered more than a few complaints from the critics, but I think that it was absolutely necessary to the type of film that they were trying to make. As a black comedy, incongruous elements must be made to ride side by side within the plot (not hard with an assassinthe main character). However, the love story becomes so smarmy (in a good way) that if the violence was not there to counter it, the film would simply become a rather oddy romantic comedy, because we would forget the nastiness of what Blank does for a living (this was the main problem with the film Homefries, because it could never make up its mind to be cutesy or violent and hence was niether). I think that the film is utlimately quite absurd an bizarre and deserves to be on every film fan's viewing list.
The kind of quirky, character-driven comedy they don't make much anymore.
Since Grocer killed the man that Martin was trying to protect in the opening scene of the film, Grocer thought it might be a good idea to form an underground union of sorts made up of himself & several other assassins who were all clamoring for work around the world after they'd left their respective organizations. Martin worked for several years for the CIA and went independent. It appears that Grocer hadwell. As Grocer says, the guild would help them prevent "embarrassing overlap" like the assassination that happened a short time before: Martin shot and killed the cyclist who was going to shoot the man coming out of the hotel. Grocer then showed up and killed the man Martin was protecting.<br/><br/>Grocer's motivation in asking Martin to join is probably that he knows that Martin is an effective contract killer and would be a great benefit to the guild. However, Martin dislikes the idea of working for anyone but himself and especially doesn't want to work for Grocer. He also mentions during the cafe scene when talking to Grocer that "bad things start happening" when people like them join forces. Martin might have some experience in that area but he might also know about the experiences of peers that ended badly – they may have turned on each other in a grab for power or money. <br/><br/>Out of petty revenge, Grocer calls Lardner and his partner and informs them that Martin will be targeting Debi's father in Detroit & they're sent out to catch Martin in the act and kill himan enemy of the state. He's a member of the Basque organization who has been contracted by another of Martin's clients to kill Martin. <br/><br/>Some months before the story opens, Martin had been contracted by one of his clients to kill someone for them. While he was trying to complete the contract, a dog, that the mark(s) had borrowed from Martin's clients was accidentally killed while retrieving a stick of dynamite they'd been using to flush game while hunting. The client blamed Martin for the dog's death and put a contract on him using LaPoubelle.
