Repo Men

Did anyone see a movie like this coming? Let alone with a big name or two in it? I would like to say that this was a unique concept and I really did not see it coming. Now that is aside, WTF!? Why the hell man? I know they were trying to pull something off that was not anything that has been done before. I hate to break it to the creators of this movie but what the hell were you thinking? You offered a story that has been told a million times over and over again. Yeah put some crazy futuristic stuff along with bio-limb shit in there you think you have a hit? Screw that complete waste my freakin’ time.

If you have not heard about this movie yet, do not get fooled by how they make it sound. They start the movie off with this troubled family man (Jude Law) that is having difficulty with his marriage to his wife because of his crazy job. Basically his wife does not like him killing people because it is justified with the saying, “A job is a job”. So him and his child hood friend (Forest Whitaker) are basically going around retaining these artificial organs from people that are passed due on their payments. Not to mention as a side note, fuck artificial organs if they are going to cost me a million dollars put a god damn bullet in my head. Eventually Jude Law has a change of heart and says you know what this shit is crazy.

Its not that I really did not like the movie, it was the fact that I feel that about 45 mins of life was wasted on something that did not need to happen. Did the writer not know how to make this shit come out or something? Did they get bored? Did someone fuck up the script half way through? The movie itself did have substance and depth. The characters played well despite the fact that Forest Whitaker was trying to be bad ass. I am just hung up on one thing and it pisses me off. Go see this shit for yourself and make sure that you fill that void with something, maybe some popcorn or even milk duds and a coke.
