Repo Men

So I wasn’t too keen on this show – but the kids went on and on – saying “pleaseeee mom! pleaseeeeee mom!” so i gave in like a sucker of course.   Jude Law and Forest Whitaker the guy with the pug look is in it – so you see why I wasn’t too, too keen.  Nothing against him – mind you ! the for the life of me – can’t understand how he became so famous.  Turned out wasn’t too bad a show – but definitely grossed and makes no sense that people get killed because they can’t make payment.  Not a very nice show for the younger kids though – and in the end – well, kinda disappointed that Jude wasn’t able to destroy “The Union” but all a dream.   Watch it if you must – but i would hate to think that our future might be this way.

In the future humans have extended and improved our lives through highly sophisticated and expensive mechanical organs created by a company called “The Union”. The dark side of these medical breakthroughs is that if you don’t pay your bill, “The Union” sends its highly skilled repo men to take back its property… with no concern for your comfort or survival. Former soldier Remy is one of the best organ repo men in the business. But when he suffers a cardiac failure on the job, he awakens to find himself fitted with the company’s top-of-the-line heart-replacement… as well as a hefty debt. But a side effect of the procedure is that his heart’s no longer in the job. When he can’t make the payments, The Union sends its toughest enforcer, Remy’s former partner Jake, to track him down.
