John Cusack 'Disappointed' In His Work - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brian Damage · 09-05-2007, 11:40 PM

John Cusack believes he has only made 10 good films, despite spending over 25 years in the film industry. Cusack, 41, counts Grosse Point Blank and Being John Malkovich amongst his best work, but admits he is embarrassed by the majority of his filmography.

He says, "I've made 10 good films. The ones that suck I tend to blank out. It's like I never even made them. Well, there aren't 40 that are great, put it that way. But that's fine. Ten is a good battling average."

John is a good actor very underrated

I'm not too happy about his movies either.

Zoneboy · 09-06-2007, 04:52 PM

I've never seen any of his movies.

I liked Grosse Pointe Blanke and High Fidelity a lot.

I am sure he considers it one of his "bad movies", but One Crazy Summer was one of my favorites as a kid. Demi Moore as a rock singer, Bobcat Goldthwait during that week (or was it a day? An hour?) where he was funny, Jeremy Piven as a teenager, the "hit a kid on the back when making a face" gag, etc... How can it go wrong?
