Repo Men the movie

[RAMA]

Has anyone seen this? I didnt even hear about it coming out but I saw a trailer for it on tv today. So what was the general opinion of it?

I saw it at the theater, free advanced screenin' a few months ago...I liked it, but wanted to see it again before I suggested it to others. Now that its on blu, I'll take another look.

I've seen it, it's ok...some good action scenes, story isn't super solid though and some will take issue with the ending of the film. The filmmakers also didn't do a lot to disguise the fact the film was shot in Toronto--other than put in a lot more buildings, neon and some maglev trains.

They didn't even bother changing the bilingual signage at Pearson International Airport or the logos on the Toronto Subway system.

Not a classic film by any means, but I've seen worse.

Loved the alien in the trunk!

I liked it and thought it was underrated. It seemed to get buried in the pre-Summer Blockbuster hype, which is unfortunate. Especially since this Blockbuster season hasn't been all that great. I don't know if another release date would've saved it or what. But I do recommend giving it a look.
