        Sorry, but as I tell my film students: "There are no boring films, just boring people." Give this film another chance, and this time don't quite halfway through annoying characters grow. You're not giving it a chance.

          There are no boring films, just boring people.
          If you really mean that, you shouldn't teach what you teach. It means you have no value judgment.
          However, there's plenty to like in this movie. It is a honest, funny and original movie with likeable characters that are still realistic.

              I say the same thing. "'Boring' is not a criticism. 'Boring' is more a reflection on the viewer than the film."

                I felt like I should have been rewarded a trophy for sitting through until the end.

                  No, not at all. But, that is exactly how I felt about Say Anything.

                      To the OP, yeah, same, couldn't finish it. There was just nothing about Rob that would convince me that a woman like Laura would come back to an a-hole like that, I don't know of any woman that would have stuck around for half of his bull and it was science fiction for her to just go running back when Rob didn't do jack to win her affection back, he just acted like a 3 year old the whole time. Maybe the movie should have just focused on records and people that buy records.
                      Life is always intense for a repo man.

                          It pays off for me in the end, but the buildup is horribly blurred. The first hour is pretty dreadful, and then suddenly he isn't a total dick. I gave it a 7, but only for the ending. The first hour sucks.

                          Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker.

                                Yea this breaking the 3rd wall stuff isn't for me. I am a music lover and I found this very boring and I couldn't relate.

                                        Blah I hate those movies. Paid money to see see the 2nd Rings and fell asleep ;).
                                        Still haven't finished High Fidelity, but I would recommend it to everyone to see it. Great movie but is not clicking it for me. Great writing, great actorsbut something always brings me down watching it.

                                          Try again.
                                          It took me three goes to get through it and in the end I really enjoyed it.
                                          The characters are hard work but the pay off is worth the effort.
