Movie Reviews of Repo! The Genetic Opera
Movie Review: Best Horror Cult Movie Ever!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
When i first heard of this, I was listening to music choice sounds of the seasons last Halloween and they played Night Suegeon and Zydrate Anatomy from the soundtrack, and I was like these are halloween songs? So I downloaded the songs. Then I found out it was a movie,which of course was horror my favorites so naturally I bought it. I watched with a few of my friends, We of course all enjoyed it. It's exciting, original and unpredictable. I have never seen anything like it. Paris Hilton and Sarah Brightman give great performances as Amber Sweet and Blind Mag. The Graverobber is awesome too. I have been trying to get the 2 disc soundtrack but no luck yet. Sometime soon I hope there will be a sequel to this. Repo Men is NOT a sequel, it simply rips off this movie, most of the fans of this movie know that. I hope Lions Gate sues them for it. But anyway Repo! The Genetic Opera is not to be missed. If you liked Sweeney Todd you'll love Repo! the Genetic Opera. It's a movie unlike any other!Movie Review: Totally Agreeing with Adam...
Summary: 5 Stars
"In response to that negative review, I am not so sure you were paying that close attention because three of your four points are an important part of the film:
1) Understand what motivates the characters <-- did we see the same movie?
2) Allow us to "feel" for the characters <-- see above; you realize what Sorvino's character was doing, right?
3) Understand what the plot or story of the film is <-- it's not the deepest movie, but it seems as though some things went over your head
4) Allow us to learn or feel anything from the generic car commercial well past its expiration date 21'st century wannabe goth/industrial schlock they call an opera. <-- i'm speechless"
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Everyone should check this movie out, regardless of it being "your cup of tea". Out of the 10 people I've told to rent it, 9 have bought it, and the other wants to wait for a directors cut. FANTASTIC MOVIE.
Movie Review: Bousman's Greatest Achievement
Summary: 5 Stars
Alexa Vega (SPY KIDS), Anthony Stewart Head (BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER), Sarah Brightman (ASPECTS OF LOVE), Paris Hilton (THE SIMPLE LIFE), Ogre (SKINNY PUPPY), Terrance Zdunich (co-creator of REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA), Bill Moseley (THE DEVIL'S REJECTS) and Paul Sorvino (GOOD FELLAS) star in SAW 2, 3 & 4's Darren Lynn Bousman's greatest film; REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA! Bousman once said that all of his life he wanted to direct a rock opera. This movie focuses on a 17 year old girl named Shilo Wallace who is investigating her family's open ended history. Without her knowing, her father; Nathan Wallace is a Repo Man on the hunt for human organs for those who don't pay their medical bills in time. This movie features great music, great songs and a brilliant stellar cast. I will end it there and see it for yourself. I purchased this movie last Summer and I am gladly doing an adaptation with my friends, a family friendly version of the macabre tale. Infinity out of 5 star rating!Movie Review: Best Movie of the Year!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is by far the best movie of 2008. In November my husband and I drove to Berkeley to see it, stopping in Palo Alto on the way for Sprinkles cupcakes (about an hour out of the way).
I thought that this movie was going to be horrible and I was going to hate it, but I was wrong. The only scene I did not like was the "Seventeen", and even that was alright in the grand sceme of things.
The actors and talent in this movie are amazing.
I say if you are going to buy this movie, go ahead and buy the soundtrack Repo! The Genetic Opera too. You'll want to be able to play the music and figure out if they truly are discussing bugs and what the future holds.
My husband and I have seen this film four times now, and he only just caught some things the last time we watched it.
It is deep and intense, and always leaves you wanting more.
Movie Review: Very cool
Summary: 5 Stars
I only watched this in the theater because Anthony Stewart Head (ASH) was one of the stars. I had no idea what to expect when me and a couple of my friends went. We were three of the four people in the theater...I didn't think that boded well. After getting over my initial reaction of WTF, I very much enjoyed the movie. I thought the whole production was well done and engaging. Everyone (including Paris Hilton) did a good job with the singing and the acting, though I wish Sarah Brightman had a bigger role. I think it compares very favorably to Rocky Horror in terms of being a rock musical. Oh! I should mention that it's not for everyone though. Not at all. It's very gory and bloody with dark undertones. In my opinion it's cartoonishly bloody and the dark humor is funny, but I know that some people are sensitive to that sort of thing. If you know that you don't enjoy that sort of thing, be strongly cautioned.
