REPO MEN (2010)
** out of ****     "Repo Men" is a movie that treats gore like an everyday necessity. The film is a celebration of blood, organs, and repossession involving both; which makes it a …

Beginning in 1992, local gangs began to rise and take over schools. By 1999, some have taken over entire communities. Some of these areas were dubbed "free fire zones" due to their lawless nature, …

Star Trek The Next Generation may have been a landmark show but looking at it's first two seasons, you wouldn't know that.  While things improved slightly in season two before going into …

REPO MEN (2010)
When it comes to blood and guts I have a relatively high tolerance level. I can handle quite a bit before I start to squirm in my seat, but Repo Men hits that tolerance level within the first five minutes …

I loved Adams' metaphor about Britain's colonial children, comparing the national personalities of Canada, the US and Australia. Spot on.

REPO MEN (2010)
This film really didn't work for me. The script lacks any originality and takes a concept that was done to death in far better films and novels and tries to add in a bit of action and social commentary. …

Super sized sequel and Arnold's most famous movie about two cyborgs that fight each other over a young boy who will help save the world. Fantastic

No one quite like him. Satire with just enough science to intrigue, just enough fantasy to confuse, just enough logic to discombobulate completely, and just enough fun to... well, you get the picture.

Again, not true "Science Fiction" as much as satire. If this poll were on the merits of satire, Adams would get a +4.
