Rutger Hauer plays a homeless man who dreams of buying a lawnmower, but ends up becoming a violent shotgun-wielding vigilante upon entering a crime-stricken city.

I love films that are over the top and silly and also have a social message. Though it's even better when they don't have a message and people try read one in anyway.

Magnolia usually sticks to the arthouses, even on films like this.

Not particularly interested in it...but I thought it was necessary to point out that Scott Vrooman from Picnicface has a (small?) role.

[up][up][up][up]Gah, that is a bummer. There's is one theater around here that might show it, but I'll probably have to wait.

You know, that was a really good trailer until the rock music started...

You can't even write racist abuse in excrement on somebody's car without the politically correct brigade jumping down your throat!

It's currently a perfect 16/16 on Rotten Tomatoes and is doing decent business in its native Canada.

[up][up]Yeah that rock music is pretty terrible.

I was amused that the song at the ending credits is the ending theme to The Raccoons. I had a nostalgia attack.

I think that the title itself makes it worth going to see. I mean, 'hobo with a shotgun'? How often do you get to see something like that?

Meh. I'm alright I guess.

Best title for a film. Ever.

(Except maybe Snakes on a Plane.)

Banned entirely for telling FE that he was being rude and not contributing to the discussion. I shall watch down from the goon heavens.
