Operation Repo: The Movie

I binge watched the entire series of operation repo, loved the TV series, the characters and all the mishaps that happened along the way.

Because I binge watch the show I got burnt out, I knew the movie existed but left it for when I felt like watching it again.

I'm not even sure I can push through this.

The quality of this abomination is no where near at the same standard as the TV series.

The camera work is choppy, the acting is atrocious, it's bad, just really really bad.

I honestly don't know how they screwed this up so badly, I'm not even sure if they watched the movie themselves afterwards because if they did they should have trashed it and started again, they need to hang their heads in shame for going ahead and releasing this crime against television.

I just finished binge watching Operation Repo, which, I know, it isn't a great show, ok.. it's a D+ of a show, show I then see there is a " film." You have the same cast from the show, but, the acting is overly dramatic.

I don't know who originally aired this, but, this feels like a very bad Tele Novela. The cast were not actors before this project, so everyone is too stiff and over acting. When I watch movies like this, I feel bad for the money wasted and what could have been put to it instead. I can't even say " well, they tried", this is worse than a high school film project. What made Operation Repo, good, or, well watchable, it was about Repo's. But this, this is trying to be too hard to be the Tele Novela Taken.

Hard out.

I mean what can you say about a movie that went out and hired Joey Buttafuoco? That screams quality. Putting aside he colorful past, the man isn't even an actor. The only time you hire someone to act in something who isn't an actor would be if they were family, and that's an even scarier thought than the big blonde's drawn-on eyebrows. I am in the repossession business, not the actual hooking of the cars, I am a skip tracer, an investigator who finds the debtors and where they are hiding the vehicles. This show gives everyone in the business a bad name. I don't know of anyone in this profession that has hired these people to repossess anything. More times than not, we have to correct debtors who are worried about this company coming to repossess their property. If you want to see honest footage of a company that is a hardworking group of people watch Jam Recovery on the National Geographic channel when they air their documentary about the repossession business.

Lou Pizzaro is a Director? = of what? Illegal dog-fights in San Fernando? This total waste of studio money needs to be spent on scripting REAL shows! At least it's not a waste of talent .... since there is none. The characters appear to be from the Cantina scene in Star Wars. I've seen better directed "special effects" in high school plays.

All in all, a very low-budget attempt to create "entertainment" from an obvious inexperienced crew top to bottom ... unbelievable characters, inane plots, poor scripting, bad acting ... what more could you want from a group of wannabe movie-makers?

I caught a show already in progress. It was the one where they take the old Chevy Tahoe, and the guy starts shooting at them. While the guy is shooting, the "camera crew" in the back doesn't even flinch. I was wondering what was going on (as other scenes had the "staged" look), so I continued watching into the next show (tru was playing several episodes in a row).

There is a disclaimer at the beginning of the show. These are "reenactments". So, in other words, the show is basically a fake.

I'm not even sure they are real repo people, or just actors.

You'll get more realistic entertainment watching WWF.
