Summary: Empire Records
Review: The story, such as it is, is that "Joe" (Anthony La Paglia, a mediocre character actor on his best day, and when he's the "star" of the film, you know you're in trouble) manages Empire Records, an independent store where the employees enjoy a laid back atmosphere where they can throw on loud music and start dancing or moshing every five minutes (Which they do, to the point of insanity at your expense).

But of course, the record store is about to be sold out to a generic chain, which will destroy this festive minimum wage party paradise forever. When one of the genius employees learns of this impending fate, he decides to take 9000 bones from the store till and go gamble it in Atlantic City so he can get enough money to save the store. Needless to say, he loses it on the first toss of the dice, leaving the next 90 minutes of the film to try and find a way to get the money back.

The young cast of record store employees includes some fairly well-known faces, including Liv Tyler as the sweet and innocent babe, Renee Zelwegger as the vapid, sex-obsessed babe, and Robin Tunney as the rebel-without-a-clue (or hair) babe. Most of the male side are pretty much unknown, at least to me. Rory Cochrane is the genius who decided to gamble the bosses money away, and who spends the remainder of the film being the "intellectual" one, although nothing that ever leaves his mouth is at all intelligent, clever, insightful, or funny. Neither is anything else in the film. It's one of these dismal teen angst comedies without much angst or comedy because you simply don't care about any of these boring pretty young people who think they are so ultra-hip. Liv Tyler looks gorgeous, but she can't act and I honestly wish she would quit trying. Go back to modeling. Renee Zelwegger is trying too hard to be like another actress even more mediocre than herself, Joey Lauren Adams (in fact, I thought it was her at first). I don't really blame the kids, though. With a script as cruddy as this one, they never had a chance.

Summary: This is quite simply an amazing movie.
Review: I've fallen in love with this movie. It's The Breakfast Club updated for our generation. All of the characters are well developed, and I found it easy to understand why they felt and acted the way they did. I watch this movie, on average, once every other week.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE BEST
Review: I have a friend who loved this movie, she even had her screen name symbolizing the movie. I never heard of it. I watched for the first time 1 week ago, from today. I fell in love. I insisted that my parents see it with me. I watched it about 8 times, throughout a period of 5 days, before my mother told me to shut it off and go outside. It is just fabulous, there is no way to describe it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: And they SAID no revealing clothing!
Review: If yr looking for a serious Oscar-worthy movie, this isn't for you. A lot of the people who give it one stars missed that. This movie is for those in their youth who want to watch something with their friends! It's cliche, it's full of stereotypes, but it's still totally lovable in its own way! I must have seen this 20 times! Bonus: Lucas is the funniest!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Roll on the Ground because it's so Funny Flick
Review: I love this movie and if you haven't seen it, then you have missed out on a great laugh. I questioned my friends when they pushed me to watch it. I had never heard of it, but a minute into it, you could find me crying with laughing tears. It's been my all time favorite movie ever since. You must go see it if you've been a teen before. All the characters give the movie a different kind of humor that you'll love. Really, go rent it or even buy it! You'll be very pleased that you did.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Damn The Man, Save The Empire
Review: Empire Records isn't just funny and entertaining - it pushes out many messages that we seem to discard. The movie tells us that love can find a way, second chances are given, there are people that DO care and you should stay away from drugs. This movie has it ALL! Plus it has some fantasic actors and sends out a great vibe! One of my favourite movies of all time!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: oh wow i love it
