Featured reviews
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 waited until this came out on video because it looked like an Australian rip-off of "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels".
Now that I've seen it, I realise that a rip-off of such a good film would have been a blessing. It goes for 97 minutes and every one of those minutes contains at least one moment which made me hate this film. It's sexist, full of embarrassingly outdated cliches and stereotypes, and the plot is painfully predictable, except for several flaws. This film should never have been allowed out of the puerile mind which devised it.

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!
This truly is one of the funniest films I have ever seen. The dialogue, characters, and situations they wind-up in are priceless! "Muggers" is the tale of two aspiring Med. School students who are on the verge of being kicked out. To pay their course fees, they turn to borrowing money from a pimp-turned-loan shark, and wind up having to repay him sooner than expected. To do so, they enter the game of organ donation, or more to the point, mugging anyone whose organs will do and stealing them instead!
To cut to the chase, "Muggers" is best viewed on its entertainment value. The actors are brilliant, of particular note being Marhsall Napier, who plays the Med. School professor, and of course Petra Jared and Nicola Charles. The laugh count is off-the-scale - the scene with the parking meter attendants had me rolling around on the floor, and the climaxing fight scene in Greg and Brad's apartment is classic!
All-in-all, a marvelous insight into the world of dim-witted desperados and their plight. See it!

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.
