ZERO EFFECT is a movie written and directed by Jake Kasdan in 1998.
Bill Pullman is a kind of modern Sherlock Holmes. As a private investigator, he's able to solve a case by deductions only without leaving his office. He doesn't have any girlfriend, spending his time, between cases, locked in his apartment, and playing (very badly) electric guitar and taking drugs.
