"Remember in Reservoir Dogs where the camera pans away as the guy's ear gets cut off ? No luxury here...". "The shootings and stabbings are shown with no fanfare, John-Woo-style-slow-motion or rock tune so we see violence for what it really is". |
| Synopsis |
Reviewer is of the opinion that by making a feature about Mark Brandon Read his status has been elevated to that of a 'pop anti-idol'. "Chopper is to organized crime what The Thin Red Line was for war". The reviewer praises the performances and direction but criticizes the script which offers little insight into Read. |
