NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Tweetienator Such a movie gives me hope - that sometimes between all the remakes, prequels, sequels, reboots and directors cuts and whatever bores we still get now and then a gem to watch. What the world needs are certainly more such fine imaginations like Repo! The Genetic Opera. Somehow the movie reminds me a little of The Rocky Horror Picture Show and that's for sure not the worst reference.Well, the genetic opera is filled with fine ideas, gore, slash and some good songs. It is an explosion of blood compared with all the blood- and lifeless productions which flood the screens of cinema and all the networks nowadays.If you like musicals and gore, this is made for loving you - and don't forget to watch The Devil's Carnival, also directed by Darren Lynn Bousman: a horror musical.

Randal_Graves17 I'm going to say something that might sound a bit weird, but when I first saw this film I thought 'what the hell was that?'Like a lot of people in the forum have said, it gave me a kind of strange headache a lot like the first time I watched Moulin Rouge which, just like Repo, went on to become one of my all time favourite musicals. My explanation for what made me change my mind? I gave it another watch and the songs got stuck in my head, it's about as simply as that.So the premise of this movie - without giving everything away - is that a mega-corporation known as GeneCo have started transplanting organs for people due to a global epidemic of organ failure, but only as long as they agree to pay money or face the consequences (potential organ repossession which is now legal.) The guy who carries out these repossessions is known as the Repo Man and, of course, is widely feared (and for good reason!)One of the things I love, and yes even admired the first time I watched this film, about Repo is the originality of its storyline. The characters are so bizarre and different that it's actually highly refreshing. The only other films/productions it's slightly reminiscent of are The Rocky Horror Picture Show (for a mixture of horror and straight up camp theatrics) and maybe even some of the Saw flicks (in terms of gore, which maybe isn't all that surprising since Darren Lynn Bousman directed a couple of those as well.)This movie mixes animation, creepy prosthetics (I'm looking at you Pavi) and some pretty twisted humour but in the end it's going to be the soundtrack that determines whether you dig this film or not. My one word of advice, as you can see from my own story, is to give it a couple of watches or even listen to the soundtrack away from the movie. Once you like it, you really like it and soon you'll be fighting with people over who's better, Luigi or Pavi. If you straight up don't like the soundtrack, you may never get this movie.But for your sake I hope you do.

Brandon Lebron Sturm (willara_forever) Obviously if you aren't into musicals, especially operas, well this movie is not for you. That being said, if you can handle singing throughout the movie well then, enjoy the ride. The movie itself is actually not bad at all, the acting is great and the music is sensational. At first I had my doubts but a second watch around let me see how amazing the music and cinematography really was. The final scene has one of the most emotional yet beautiful songs in the movie. It's gory yet hilarious and has its own satire. This movie is not for everyone but if you would like to see great songs being performed in many ways you wouldn't expect then give this a try. Alexa Vega and Sarah Brightman were outstanding. You either hate it or love it, or even a little bit of both.

Thoughts_provoked I rated this title as excellent because of the pure originality of the music and plot The characters are completely believable and realistic. This is one of my all time favourite films plainly because of the fact that i think it reflects how our world is dependent of consumerism and the increase of plastic surgery, Bousman has created a very original plot which is tide together with the music and sang dialogue, this is a story of love, greed, and revenge, character deaths is another reason i love this film, all through the film Bousman really makes it so the audience connects with the characters and when one of them dies it really effects the audience.I would very much recommend this film to practically anyone who would be willing to watch it, it is a great film and has been directed absolutely brilliantly. This film is definitely in my top ten favourite all time films.
