Movie Reviews of Repo! The Genetic Opera
Movie Review: If you want to feel your dark side...
Summary: 5 Stars
I do not have the words, I doubt they even exist. We all have a dark side in us and if you are in touch with yours, and it won't hurt you to feed it a little bit, then you should watch this movie. If you go to a dark place sometimes, this is a great way to channel that journey. The cast does not hold back, they will push your limits and you will want more. You have to enjoy touching your own darkness to enjoy this movie, if you can do that then these people and their story will live in that space for the rest of your life.
Just relax, and don't let your fear overtake you.
I also want to send a thank you out there to Anthony Head for the amazing energy he gave this movie. I always enjoy his work (if you havn't gone past Buffy yet try Little Britain or the Dr Who episode "School Reunion") but this shows he can do anything.
Movie Review: An Epic Goth Musical!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm usually not a big fan of musicals, but I decided to give this a chance. I bought this with Max Payne and Saw V a few hours before Obama's Inaugurated. I thought Repo was really good! I love how it had the goth look and feel of the movie! I also loved the style, visuals, and beautiful scenery it had! Darren Lynn Bousman did an awesome job! In the future, an epidemic of organ failures plagues the city, but GeneCo gives organ transplants, but if the person never pays up, GeneCo sends out the Repo Man. Repo Man happens to be the father to Shiloh, played by the beautiful Alexa Vega. The owner of GeneCo, Rotti Largo is dying and wants to give GeneCo to Shiloh. Rotti's children, Luigi, Pavi, and Amber Sweet want to inherit GeneCo, but Rotti hates them. I loved the rock music! I highly recomend REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA!!!Movie Review: There are many words to use to describe this movie...
Summary: 5 Stars
odd, creepy, campy, gorey, outlandish, original, moving, brilliant. If I had to draw a comparison, I'd say it reminds me of a strange mixture of Sin City, Phantom of the Opera, and Rocky Horror. I don't think there's anything else out there quite like this - which some people may say is a good thing (considering it won a Razzie), but I disagree. I think all of the actors gave spot on performances, even Hilton. Anthony Head is absolutely brilliant, he's such an amazing actor. He doesn't get enough credit, imo. This is a movie that I will watch time and time again.
If you're thinking, hey, I loved the Saw movies, so I'm going to watch this...think again. This is nothing like Saw. If you don't have an appreciation for musicals, or for campy cult movies, you probably won't enjoy this.
Movie Review: Marvellous!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
It's a really very, very emotional and wonderful film, marvellous! You have to cry, to hope and to shiver! Such a beautiful story and also a sign of reminding. A story of love, hate, revenge, deceptivity and such hypocritical people... The actors, the music, the scenery... I don't know where to start or to end.
I'm a woman from Germany and I bought on AMAZON.COM, because in Germany the DVD isn't available and I don't think it will be available, anytime! What a pitty! I got this film today, but I couldn't watch on a german DVD-Player. It only runs under another Region, the Region 1, and not the Region 2, so the only possibillity was to put it into my laptop and, Hurrah, it runs! So I was so glad and satisfied finally to watch this wonder- wonder- wonderful film! Thank God! :0) NICOLE KEESE
Movie Review: Brilliant
Summary: 5 Stars
I borrowed my friend's DVD of Repo!, because he told me it was awesome, and I fell in love with it. I loved the music, rock operas are my favorite. :)
The best songs (even though some of them are not on the soundtrack, even the deluxe which made me angry) are:
- Shilo Wakes
- Legal Assassin
- 21st Century Cure
- Zydrate Anatomy (I'm a total Z addict :D)
- Cut the ties/ Shilo turns on Rotti
- Let the monster rise
- and Needle through a bug
I'm sad to see that a few people didn't like the movie, mainly because they expected something more upbeat and happy, but I found that the morbidity made the move amazing. I loved the movie and I'm pleased to say I own the soundtrack and the movie. :)
