Repo! The Genetic Opera

Thus, everyone bursts frequently into frenetic song.....The voice talent of the ensemble cast is superb, the concept is very original....Although the songs are largely cheesy, they are in fact catchy and well done..... ... Full Review

Track eight, 'Whitevan,' is really weird too.....Of all the weird shit on here, the best song by far is the seventh song, 'psychoreal.....prominently displays the results of twenty-seven years of creating insane music.....swarms of oddly timed moments that feel like the result of weeks of insomniac raving.... ...

The acting is a running problem throughout Repo!....for such a cheap film, it's impressively stylish, with its rich costumes and sets and cinematography....Sorvino's unruly kids have their own sideplots and scenes, which are the worst of the film.....they each want to inherit Sorvino's company, but far worse is the gross slapstick comedy (dig those goofy sound effects) and broader-than-broad manic overacting:....And yet it sounds like such an appealingly crazy, extravagantly wild project..... ...

considering the 'Saw' alumni, Bousman displays real filmmaking talent with some great camerawork and a fluid handling of cutting the songs together....The narrative is slightly convoluted....great headlining performances....fascinating visuals and narrative....some nice high-def visuals.... ...

the greatest film of all time, for obvious reasons. Although it's unlikely I'll ever choose to watch it again, I'm glad I saw it for the film deserves to be seen at least once. Thankfully, it's a small but fitting role). ... Full Review

If I had one disappointment it's that some of the songs are too short and that they all start to sound very similar by the time the film is over.
