Sci-fi action from a near future, where artificial organs have become big business. It's creepy to think how real this prospect might be... People in desperate situations signing ridiculously expencive contracts for artificial organs, then later being hunted down by so-called "reposession men" because they're unable to pay. Remy (Jude Law) is the best of all the repo men. He does his job effectively and skillfully - cause it's just another job, right? Until he gets a metal heart himself. The movie wants you to think about what you're doing with your life; that what you do is what makes who you are in the end. This message is almost too clear. Some parts make less sense, like the girl he picks up and falls in love with half way through, and there's a middle section that makes you look at the time a lot. The music is really good though, and a lot of cool action scenes, there's blood everywhere for those who like that... All in all it's a good movie that manages to pick up the slack at the end.
