Repo Man (2010)




Set in a world in the future when all parts of your body can be replaced by artificial parts. The whole business of providing artificial body parts is commanded by The Union. It is like a bank. Anyone in need of a body part comes to them and gets it on credit. They have to pay EMIs till they have paid for the ludicrous sums that The Union asks. When they fail to pay, The Union sends in the Repossession Men – these are men who retrieve the body parts. It is the story of two such Repo Men, as they are called, Jude Law and Forrest Whitaker. With a brilliant acting by the duo and an even better ending, the Repo Man is just awesome!!! I have no other words to describe the movie.

One warning though, the movie has a lot of gory scenes with the Repo Men cutting out organs from bodies. So if you are not in a mood for too much blood I would suggest you give it a skip or see a censored version. But it is the gore that gives a tangy flavor to the movie and adds to the effect. The ending is just brilliant and caught me absolutely out of balance. Man it rocks!!! It’s a must watch. Watch it for Jude Law, watch it for Forrest Whitaker, watch it for the story, watch it for the ending.
