MEDIUM LEVEL SEX SCENES
| Director: | Geoffrey Wright |
| Actors: | James McKenna, Russell Crowe, Jacqueline McKenzie, Alex Scott, Daniel Wyllie, Tony Lee, Leigh Russell, Daniel Pollock |
More than a decade later ROMPER STOMPER is still considered one of the most daring and confrontational films ever made and is remembered as the film that rocketed Russell Crowe into the international spotlight.
As Hando, the leader of a gang of neo-Nazi skinheads Crowe is a powerful, menacing and intimidating white supremacist. Driven by deep-seated hatred, they initiate a street war against members of the local Vietnamese community with relentless ferocity and devastating consequences. Also starring the late Daniel Pollock and Jacqueline McKenzie ("Deep Blue Sea") Geoffrey Wright's bold and brilliant film remains a powerful and relevant Australian classic.

A pretty good movie, but the sociopathy of most of the characters is a real turn off. However, Russell Crowe delivers an excellent performance as he usually does. It's pretty short too. Overall, this isn't what I describe as brilliant cinema, but I'd say it is worth one watch.

Brazenly violent and not much point to it! Borrow at own risk!

I was dissapointed. I thought the women were especially badly written. I just couldn't believe Crowe as a skinhead either.

Controversial expose on interracial intolerance and warfare, with heavy doses of strong violence and sex. Loses its way somewhat in a love-triangle climax, but until then it doesn?t pull any punches: how you judge this film will be based on your tolerance of on-screen violence and to what extent you are willing to believe the plausibility of the story. Wright, previously responsible for the acclaimed "Lover Boy", followed this with another expose of Melbournian sub-culture in "Metal Skin".
