Repo Men is confounding mess of a movie. It wildly throws itself between genres, tones, and styles. What’s so frustrating is that some moments are tons of fun, others are irritatingly melancholy, and then there are moments where the film is so bad it’s good. It’s a whirlwind of a picture that sweeps you up and then smashes you back into the ground. It’s fun and painful at the same time and those sides draw a stalemate in the story of guys who will murder you because you can’t make a payment on your artificial organs. It’s a kind of story that could go in any direction, but it’s amazing how far it tries to go in every direction.

Universal has just sent over high resolution versions of the recently released Repo Men movie posters. I believe they came out last week when I was at Sundance, hence why we didn’t post them.

The film stars Jude Law, Forest Whitaker, Liev Schreiber, RZA, Alice Braga, and Carice van Houten and it’s a futuristic action-thriller where a company called The Union has extended people’s lives thanks to expensive mechanical organs. Jude Law and Forest Whitaker play the people who collect the organs if you can’t pay.

While I love futuristic movies, I know this film was due to be released awhile ago and the date kept getting pushed back. Not a good sign. But saying that, I’m still in based on the cast and concept. I’m just hoping the film surprises me. Hit the jump to check out the posters and the full synopsis:
