jcjs333 This is an unexpected gem...Pattinson, the vampire guy, turns a great performance as far as i can tell...humdinger acting, sounds, music, terrain...Fargo, Coen Bros., Scorcese, U Turn and so many other good ones come to mind but, this one, is unique...
aprilmike-51991 The Rover.Dark, mysterious and sad. Something the Aussies can do without exception. Guy Pierce is superb as are all the cast and that wonderful Aussie outback as the never ending backdrop. Stick with it as its what I believe is called a slow burner. Why does he want the car so much, see if you can work it out. I did the next day! Defenetly worth a look.
justlmb-21673 A little slow in the very beginning but an intriguing story and relationship that is built with the two main characters really made for a Good movie! You will be surprised and interested.... Both Guy Pearce and Robert Pattinson were a pleasure to watch. A deviation from character portrayal for Pattinson and I was pleasantly surprised at his ability to make you believe his character and become almost endearing regardless of the odd part he plays.
thekarmicnomad The world is reeling from an economic mealy down. Society hangs on precariously in a state of lawlessness. Following a botched bank robbery a man's car is stollen. This is his story of getting his car back.The main character is hardened, non communicative and solely dedicated to the task of getting his car back. What follows is a violent road movie with one of the most unlikable, grumpiest heroes of all time. Despite being a total douche I did start to warm to the character. This is a clear indication of how well made the movie is. Guy Pierce is great, which is just as well as he is tasked with shouldering most of the load.The world is grubby, squalid and dangerous. Yet it has an element of realism about it. The police desperately try to keep order in a world where most people have all but given up.An enjoyable watch with a beautifully bitter ending.
