Amazon.com essential video:
Seven years after he earned his first screen credit as the writer of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, former Rolling Stone writer Cameron Crowe made his directorial debut with this acclaimed romantic comedy starring John Cusack and Ione Skye as unlikely lovers on the cusp of adulthood. The casting is perfect, and Crowe's rookie direction is appropriately unobtrusive, no doubt influenced by his actor-loving, Oscar®-winning mentor, James L. Brooks. But the real strength of Crowe's work is his exceptional writing, his timely grasp of contemporary rhythms and language (he's frequently called "the voice of a generation"), and the rich humor and depth of his fully developed characters. In Say Anything... Cusack and Skye play recent high school graduates enjoying one final summer before leaping into a lifetime of adult responsibilities. Lloyd (Cusack) is an aspiring kickboxer with no definite plans; Diane (Skye) is a valedictorian with intentions to further her education in Europe. Together they find unlikely bliss, but there's also turbulence when Diane's father (John Mahoney)--who only wants what's best for his daughter--is charged with fraud and tax evasion. Favoring strong performances over obtrusive visual style, Crowe focuses on his unique characters and the ambitions and fears that define them; the movie's a treasure trove of quiet, often humorous revelations of personality. Lili Taylor and Eric Stoltz score high marks for memorable supporting roles, and Cusack's own sister Joan is perfect in scenes with her onscreen and offscreen brother. A rare romantic comedy that's as funny as it is dramatically honest, Say Anything... marked the arrival of a gifted writer-director who followed up with the underrated Singles before scoring his first box-office smash with Jerry Maguire. --Jeff Shannon

Cameron Crowe directed this little movie, and he has created a feminist statement. It is from the romantic comedy, subdivision teen, genre, but it is a story told from a female perspective. It is like a female fantasy, new age sensitive guy--but the problem is, in real life the girl would never go for the guy, even though in the fantasy movie they do, in real life, not so much. But if you can suspend your disbelief long enough, it is an entertaining little tale.

- Decent romantic drama.
People love this movie but Say Anything is the kind of teen film that fades with time. The soundtrack is the true winner but I felt kind of felt disappointed after watching this John Cusack flick. He is a great actor and so is Ione Skye who plays his love interest but I feel writer/director Cameron Crowe's writing is overrated, not sure why he gets so much attention. This film is good just not as tender-hearted as I thought it would be.

Rating:

- Enjoyable
I was actually surprised, after watching this film, of how mediocre it was. I guess my expectations were so high, as my older sister (born in the mid-70's) hails this as a classic. Don't get me wrong, I can very easily see this film being a classic for her generation, but for someone out of that age bracket, someone like myself born in the mid-80's, this was simply an enjoyable film. Perhaps it just didn't carry the weight it did for her.

As far as the film direction is concerned, as an independent ... Read More
