Product Description
Product Description
Real-life convict and bestselling author of "How To Shoot Friends and Influence People," Mark "Chopper" Read dreams of making a name for himself as a legendary crime figure in this frightening, savagely funny true story. The son of a devoutly religous mother and a one-time soldier with a fondness for sleeping alongside a loaded gun, Chopper starts out as a wisecracking criminal failure, inside a maximum-security prison, but he manages to twist his life into celebrity.
Amazon.com
Based on the writings of Australian author Mark "Chopper" Read, a real-life criminal who recounts his misdeeds (including the severing of his own ears to win release) in books with titles like How to Shoot Friends and Influence People, Chopper is a stomach-churning spectacle from which you cannot pull away. In the opening scene of Andrew Dominik's vicious first film, Chopper jabs a man's face full of holes with pliers and proceeds to offer him a cigarette while he lies bleeding to death on a prison floor; contrite but obviously mad, he then asks sincerely, "You don't like me much, do you?" Somehow it's grotesquely funny. Shooting in bleached-out blue prison cells and corrosively lit nightclubs and flats, Dominik sets a spare stage for the film's true revelation, standup comic Eric Bana's explosive debut. Reminiscent in scale of Russell Crowe's first lead outing as a sadistic skinhead in Romper Stomper, Bana's performance is at turns fearsome, hilarious, and mesmerizing. --Fionn Meade

I AM NOT A BIG FAN OF CULT FOLLOWING FILMS BUT BANA'S TAKE ON THIS AUSTALIAN FOLK HERO AND BEST SELLING AUTHOR (AS DISTURBING AS SERIAL KILLERS HAVING IDOL WORSHIPPERS AND MARRIAGE PROPOSALS) IS RIGHT ON THE MONEY. BANA AS AN ACTOR CAUGHT MY ATTENTION IN FILMS SUCH AS "MUNICH" ,TROY, AND THE TIME TRAVELERS WIFE, AS AN EXCEPTIONAL PROTAGONIST ACTOR. THIS EARLY ROLE DOES SHOW A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STYLE OF HIS ACTING SKILLS.HIS VERSATILITY IS ASTONISHING. Five Stars for Eric Bana's performance which is unlke anything he has ever done before on film.

is interesting, especially because it tells the life of a real person.
I became a fan of Bana after I saw the movie Munich. I didn't know who he was, but his performance in that movie was stellar. He, Bana, is really a fantastic actor.
I gave this movie 5 stars because, especially, because of Bana's Brilliant performace.
