Empire Records
The film tells of workers trying to help the poor in a short time. The manager at the time really wants to buy the place but the faint employee Lucas steals his savings and loses them all in Atlantic City. Now, things turn out to be a bad track if they can't come up with the loot, where it seems he might buy it a huge music city.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

Lovably sloppy.

[Leaves the] impression of artificiality.

Overall, fatally ersatz but good natured at heart.

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

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