Muggers

much in the mould of similar hollywood efforts (eg GO); two medical students face expulsion if they fail one more subject, and with a matter of days until their finals, they must find enough money for some decent food, books and rent. So they become muggers - but they're after something with a little more value on the black market than notes and coins!! Day is good as always; Petra Yared (whom others may have seen briefly in JOURNEY TO THE CENTRE OF THE EARTH) looks like one for the future. And for those attracted by the possibility of seeing (finally!!) Nicola Charles' breasts, she doesn't disappoint. Australia doesn't make many of these racy films aimed at the older teenage/young adult bracket - recent efforts have been poorly scripted (DAGS; SENSITIVE NEW AGE KILLER) or not well-enough known (ALL THE WAY). Finally here's something that will appeal to a mainstream audience that also manages to convey a slightly crude view of governmental resource allocation and the Student Situation. Rating: 7/10.

I do not know what the last guy went in expecting from Muggers but I thought it was a great laugh. I saw it at the cinema and thought it was a really funny movie. The opening titles with the flying man and ambulance were just amazing and from then on I think I laughed at least once every five minutes...and the sex scene had me nearly crying from laughter. I thought the actors were good, have not gone much for Matt Day before but I thought he did a really good job and the Irish guy (sorry I don't know his name)was a real stand out.

If you want a laugh then I totally recommend this film. Congrats to the director, writer, actors and crew on a really cool movie.

Here is a fun film with a stellar Australian cast with enough turns to keep you glued yet plenty of laughs in between. Brad and Gregor, two broke medical students in their final year must resort to contentious lengths to finance themselves. With a large debt to the local loan shark they have little left to lose as they chase any opportunity that arises.

This is a very funny film which includes a few very, very funny sex scenes. The film has an exciting third act which others have compared to Lock, Stock. However this doesn't detract from the films fun, intelligence or tension.

All in all, I've given Muggers a few viewings and each time it's a thoroughly enjoyable film. Definitely recommended for fans of Australian Action films.

the only reason why i watched this movie was because of Jason Barry(gregor). I didn't know what to expect of it but I enjoyed it after all and plan on watching it all the time. It was a funny movie just I didn't laugh because I had no one to laugh with. i really enjoyed it though and the special edition features on the DVD are quite all right. Note: that movie makes me wanna play golf and have a room filled with stuffed animals. The acting was great for actors i've never seen before in other films, with the exception of Jason Barry. I recommend it to everyone who wants to spend a nice saturday night at home.

I stumbled across Muggers in the video store just recently whilst trying to find the 5th of my 5 movies for $10 dollars deal. I loved it. It is hilarious! I've never been a big fan of Matt Day, but in this he really shines. Muggers is the story of two broke medical students who resort to stealing kidneys to sell on the black market. It sounds sort of yuk but isn't. The film is told with such charm and humour and had my girlfriend and I in stitches. I don't know how I missed it at the cinema but I totally recommend you make it your video title next saturday night!
