Repo review

Excellent movie. Very stylish, good concepts, and well executed. Our showing at Angelika seemed to have some technical issues (specifically with the audio being out of sync with the video). There were also some songs where the vocals were clean, which sounded awkward. For others, the music was mixed too low. Regardless, it was very enjoyable.

It attacked privatized medicine (if we had their organ replacement technology and still had a medical system under Neoliberalism, organ repossession would be a reality), and it mocked medical and surgery obsession (it also took a few tongue in cheek pot shots at body mods). It also took a shot at people who reproduce knowing that they have certain diseases or conditions. There were some fun political tinges, and at the end the new owner of Geneco vowed to change it (most likely make it more forgiving and social democratic). It was also packed with great outfits and makeup, as well as beautiful sets. Go see Repo: The Genetic Opera.
