Customer Reviews
NOT A COPY
this movie is awesome, its not stolen from repo: the genetic opera! its based on a book called he reposessin mambo. as proof there are even some of the same quotes in the book. Like the scientist with the cat in the box. this movie is good so dont assume things that arent true. do some research first.
Gothic Romance
This is a dark tale of money, loyalty and love. Its a gothic romance if ever there was. It is violent, overtly bloody and tragic. It is certain not a light hearted romance of any kind. It may not contain the a typical icons of the gothic genre, for example, supernatural powers, ghost, demons, the devil or angels, but the journey from hunter and thrill seeker to hunted in Jude Laws character, show the extreme emotions of joy and horror that are deeply rooted in Gothic literature, also his love and lose are also key componets to this story and genre. Jude Laws proformance in its own right was compelling enough to warrent the viewing expereince.
Good stuff
Great movie based the book "the reposession mambo", had nothing to do with that genetic opera trash. Gory, yes. Hilarious, yes. It may not have class but theres definately style. Cool soundtrack, great cast. Worth a viewing at the least.
