There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Empire Records is arguably the worst "film" I have ever seen. I cannot even begin to comprehend how anyone can stand to tolerate this garbage. It seems like the entire film was conceived in a single evening. There was no thought or foresight put into this filth whatsoever. It's as if the screenwriter wrote a first draft and then immediately started handing the scripts out to B-movie actors. The abominations in this film which they call "characters" are completely unlikable. Many of their performances could have be pulled off using cardboard cutouts attached to oscillating fans. This movie's paper-thin plot advanced for about the first 10 minutes, then proceeded to spin its wheel in monotony and trash comedy until the last 20 minutes. I can't imagine that anyone could have read this script and thought, "Yeah that sounds like a great idea. Let's do it!" The actors in this film come off as budget acting school dropouts, who are hardly worthy of any roles at all. Plain and simple: DO NOT BOTHER. I wouldn't wish this film on my worst enemy, and I'm fairly certain that playing this during a time of war would be considered inhumane under the Geneva Convention.

If there is an award for the worst movie ever made Empire Records should be in the running for the grand prize. What a mess. A train wreck. A disaster. There are no words that describe how bad this movie really is. Who wrote this crap? You need a script a director and actors to make a movie; it looks like they had none on this one. Just watched it on Cable TV on "Multiplex". The words "stupid" "inane" and "childish" come to mind. What a waste of money time and film. Did anyone actually think this project was worth making? Why waste your time on this. BAD BAD BAD Above all they needed a producer who could say NO NO NO rather than yes. Save yourself the waste of your time and DO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE!

This is my first movie review so i through i would start with one of the best films of all time! This film is the day in the life of a middle America record store!It shows the story of a number of misfits and what happens to them in a day that changes there life!Its funny, heartwarming and sad! Every time i have a bad day i watch this to cheer me up!With a great sound track and some pretty great acting for the stars of tomorrow (well now the stars of today!).SO if your looking to feel good about the 90's and want to listen to classic tunes as well this is one for you. Thou you want to watch the remix not original cut! But is awesome do watch

I adore this movie. Right after I saw it, it was my new favorite. It was really funny and had a great script. The soundtrack ROCKED. But I think my favorite part about this movie is the characters. They all seemed so real, like people I could be friends with or go to school with. They all have their strengths and weaknesses, and good points and bad points. It seemed a lot more realistic than how most teen movies are where there is one really bland main character and then he or she has its quirky stereotypical friends. This movie is little hard to get into at first but thats the only thing I don't like. I would recommend this movie to anyone, especially if they like movies like The Breakfast Club. I fell in love with this movie, and I hope you will enjoy it too. DAMN THE MAN, SAVE THE EMPIRE! ;)
