One of few articles which criticizes structure. |
| Synopsis |
This review identifies 'Chopper' the film's three good qualities, which according to Roberts, includes the compilation of Read's life portrayed as a drunken ancedote, the second is the colloquial humour and the third, a combination of aesthetics, Bana's performance and Dominik's objective approach.
Negating these qualities is the rambling structure which Roberts claims we absorb due to the arresting events but the tale as entity appears to have lost its point or direction.
Roberts celebrates the absence of dullness describing Chopper as a "constantly moving yarn, pummeling along in an uncertain direction with...action, verbosity and unpredictability".
Overall, a positive review which makes creditable points about the structure. |
