Review of Repo Man (1984) by Nikolaj Z — 31 Jul 2009
"Look at 'em, ordinary fucking people, I hate 'em.".
"This is the kind of movie that baffles Hollywood, because it isn't made from any known formula and doesn't follow the rules. . . There are a lot of running gags in the movie, and the best of them involves generic food labels, of all things. . . Repo Man comes out of left field, has no big stars, didn't cost much, takes chances, dares to be unconventional, is funny, and works. There is a lesson here. " - Roger Ebert.
"The life of a repo man is always intense. ".
"Deadpan humor, throwaway visual jokes, and oblique political and social satire may have doomed this way-cool flick to the neverland of sci-fi cultdom." - MaryAnn Johanson (Film Filosopher).
"The more you drive, the less intelligent you are.".
