So FINALLY a movie that I am excited to see hits the big screen this weekend, but since I'm a HUGE celebrity I got to see it before anyone else. Repo Men starring Jude Law and Forrest Whittiker. A movie about a pair of body part repo men in the future. You see a private company has set up a way for you to get the mechanical body parts you need to live. Now of course because they are an evil corporation they charge you out the ass for the parts, and if you can't pay for them guys come to your house and cut them out. I don't care about the anti-business angle of this, all I care about is the blood and guts. I mean the first scene a guy gets his liver taken out!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I have to say that there are a few things that I just can't get past in this movie. First, and let me say this loud. JUDE LAW CANNOT AND WILL NOT EVER BE AN ASSKICKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean if you let Jude Law beat you down then you deserve to let him take out your pancreas. I mean have Gerard Butler play this part, at least we would believe that. The other thing I can't get past is Forrest Whittiker crazy lazy eye. I don't know what it is but that thing follows you around on screen the entire time he is on. Now this movie is about how a guy who is a repo man all of a sudden gets a conscience when he has to have one of these parts in him. BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!!!!!!!! Let me tell you about what I cared about in the movie. Blood and Guts!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is a ton of it and the extra kill scenes in this movie are FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!! They kill a couple of people with a HACK SAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to say because of all the violence and gore I LOVED this movie!!!!!!!!!
