Repomen


A very ingenious cautionary tale about the lives of people and how what you do, does indeed define who you are. Repomen takes place in the near future. Its focus on those men, who after the the purchase of new organs, when payments can no longer be made, stalk their prey and repossess the rightful property of "The Union".

While it had a promising plot, Repomen did indeed lack in certain areas. It at times seemed very slow and in my opinion, lacked serious character development. Just as we began to delve deep into a character, the plot would shift to something. For some reason, i left the theater thinking "I don't buy this."

However, despite those not so hot points, I did really enjoy this movie. It brought me everything I wanted. Barely exceeding my expectations, the ending was rather good. And for those who find the chance of gore in movies as a turn off, it was presented somewhat tastefully. Jude Law was great in his portrayal of Remy and might I add very nice to look at. (Ladies let me tell you now there are several shirtless scenes.)

Overall Rating: Matinée
