Repo Men

Was able to see the trailer of Repo Men. Basically the story is about a man who wants to be out of what he is doing because he has turned into the very person he is after. 

The future has become a time where life could actually be extended by having body parts that are made possible by the advances of science. Artificial heart, kidney, lungs, and any part that you need are made in factory. Yes it will make you alive but it will not only break your bank but also end your life.

A company, The Union, has monopolized the business and when one has defaulted on his or her payments they sent the Repo Men, short for repossession men. These parts have become like the ordinary car or house that you buy that when not paid on time a legal action of repossession can be implemented even at the risk of one’s life. 

The lead actor played by Jude Law is a Repo Men. He and his partner,Forest Withaker, are skilled in the business of taking back what the company owns. Until one time Jude law suffers from a heart attack and wakes up that his heart was replaced by the company. He now owes his life to the company. But as he returns to his work as Repo man it seems that he cannot do his job anymore, his heart was not into it anymore. He wants to get out of the business but because the heart that keeps him alive is of the company he is now hunted by his very partner(as per the trailer, not sure about this). 

The movie will be shown this coming Friday. Let’s us see how will end or fare. The ending seems that he will escape it and lead a run and hide life or will he shut down the company that hunts those that owe it for the body parts.
