    The story of a circle of friends in Seattle during the grunge era of the early 90s and their adventures with dating, work and friendship. Sure, the look is somewhat dated and one has to wonder how people ever thought such clothes looked good on them. The soundtrack, on the other ... ...( read more )

    Worth it for a great soundtrack and a terrific performance by Campbell Scott.

    Yet another example of Cameron Crowe's penchant for putting the soundtrack above any depth or intelligent storytelling. Alright, but forgettable (much like all his others...)

    This is one of my fave movies. I love the Grunge culture, and I know all the little details about it all...I thought this was just awesome. Matt Dillon played a great headbangin rocker, and I still can't get over how cool Layne looked and sounded when they played It Ain't Like That!! haha PJ as Citizen Dik is so cool! I love the part where Cliff puts the new stereo in the car, and Chris Cornell comes out headbangin to it haha how random! But seeing my fave band Soundgarden playing was one of my fave parts...god can Chris ever SCREEAM!!

    The soundtrack is by far the best soundtrack ever, woo its amazing...
