Repo Man has the type of unerring energy that leaves audiences breathless and entertained.
Dave Kehr
Cox's style is a step beyond camp into a comedy of pure disgust; much of the film is churlishly unpleasant, but there's a core of genuine anger that gives the project an emotional validation lacking in the flabby American comedies of the early 80s.
Geoff Andrew
There are endless things to enjoy, from Robby Müller's crisp camerawork to a superb set of performances, from witty movie parodies to a tremendous punk soundtrack.
Roger Ebert
Repo Man comes out of left field, has no big stars, didn't cost much, takes chances, dares to be unconventional, is funny, and works. There is a lesson here.
Vincent Canby
It's very entertaining, and though it's rude in an R-rated way, it has the good taste never to promise more than it can deliver.
