Empire Records
A group of workers deal with different paths in their lives as they try to help the poor. During that short period, the manager decided to buy the place, where he tries to recoup his losses but the faint employee Lucas steals his savings and loses them all in Atlantic City. In a short time, if these people can't get out with their loot, the huge music city will buy it as soon as possible.

One of the hippest and most enjoyable movies of the 90s. This ROCKS!

If the movie is a lost cause, it may at least showcase actors who have better things ahead of them.

Empire Records is little more than a poor man's Clerks, but an entertaining one.

[Leaves the] impression of artificiality.

Leaves you with the sensation of having chewed a piece of bubblegum until well after its flavour ran dry.

Lovably sloppy.

The Empire Strikes Out . . . lame Gen-X "comedy" that falls completely flat . . . Go rent CLERKS

Overall, fatally ersatz but good natured at heart.

It's high on charm and low on quality; the writing is pedestrian at best, the characters are paper-thin, and director Allan Moyle lets the music do the heavy lifting.

A soundtrack in search of a movie, Empire Records is one teen-music effort that never finds a groove.

...things just move quickly from one person's conflicts to another, with little momentum or feeling of satisfaction.
