Romper Stomper is fantastic film with your guts. I still remember in the UK branding as controversial even certain press saying I should be banned when any film infamous were labelled it should banned. That label got the audiences to say "Let watch this". Overall it is an intelligent, challenging films.

"Let the plot & the consequences of the characters actions do the talking." Exactly; some people are so milquetoast they need to be spoonfed on how they're supposed to think, & when they have to think for themselves it upsets them :3

Most of the libtards whinging about the violence and "racist overtones" are happy to wear keffiyehs and shout from the river to the sea at demos. The film scares them because of its brutal underclass reality; when you have nothing, you have nothing to lose but your tribal identity.

IMHO it did incite a small amount of racial violence and at least one group was saying it would be a good thing for them recruitment wise. Saw it in 93, had to get someone to go in and rent it for us on VHS which was a primitive version of a DVD which was a primitive version of a Blu-ray which was the pinnacle of technology until streaming services. Can't wait to get chipped up and dispense with all that nonsense.

I'd like to thank the director, cast, and crew for making this impactful film. It hit me as hard as "Once Were Warriors." It and "Romper Stomper" are two films that opened my eyes to the terrors of extreme right-wingers. It's truly horrifying to see fascism once again becoming fashionable among certain segments.

Great score and band soundtrack. Even the director said the messege is if you try to be a skin head neo Nazi you end up dead or in jail. Wow didn't know they got arrested too by cops and called method actors. People outraged ignore every non white gang and such. In reality it shows neo Nazis turn on each other also. I've seen this online too. The only flaw is Hando spitting saliva when stabbed in the neck. I'd love to have heard more tracks for that band also and interviews. I didn't know Australia had cold areas either.

To give some context to what David was saying; i moved to Adelaide in 2001 and started working at the Holden car factory in 2003. Whilst working on the line one day, the subject of Romper Stomper came up, and the bloke working opposite me said the him and his mates saw it together at the cinema, and after the screening they all went out in their cars looking for any foreigners they could find to beat up. Clearly, this guy and his mates were predisposed to this moronic behaviour before seeing the film. But he said he felt pure joy and adrenaline whilst watching the film, that he just couldn't wait to go and hurt any foreigners that were unlucky enough to get in his path. It was sickening to hear, and being a "Pom" i could tell from his body language that he considered me fair game also.

Romper Stomper certainly should NOT be not reviewed, censored, etc. It is a poorly written film. It never explains why the characters become skinheads and join a gang. Still, the story held my interest. And the film put Russel Crowe on the map. (Curtis Hanson has said in interviews that Romper Stomper led him to cast Russel Crowe as police officer Bud White in LA Confidential.) I give Romper Stomper two (out of four) stars.

Seeing how many of the documentaries that covered white power youth gangs in the 90s illustrated that most of them are children running away from broken homes, and that all of the skins are on the dole, I'd say its pretty clear these guys (and much like their real life counterparts) are homeless goons that just wanted to feel a part of something. Hence why the gal falls in with them so easily.

Were you? I was there you idiot. Have you watched the film? Where do you think the music they played in the film came from? It was punk rock picked up by the skins. You don't know what I'm talking about? Wtf? Mate, there was a crossover and woke punk rockers and nationalist skins were both at odds with each other and going to gigs with each other. I'm not talking about the 90s, I'm talking about the late 70s early 80s. There were the crass wokists and there were English inspired skins. One of them, Mick lips, was a mate, he had no hesitation in bottling people. I was right there, right in amongst. Riots in George St in 81. You don't know what I'm talking about because you weren't there, you ignorant arse.

Movies with good intentions can't help to inspire the wrong people. The movie clearly shows what a bunch of failures and hacks Hando's bunch is. They get run out of their hide-out. They can't take care of themselves. Hando refuses to eat but can't get food for himself. They mess up their robbery and have to escape in the Japanese-made car that they bashed and vandalized. They suffer from infighting. I find it interesting how people worried about this film do not say the same thing about American films like "Menace to Society," which fed the imaginations of many of a gangster who got the wrong ideas from the movie.

I remember first watching Romper Stomper in 97 I think (would've been 13 at the time) as much as it has a great deal of racism, I still think it's a strong and gripping movie that indeed boosted Russell Crowe's movie career. Still sad as to Daniel Pollock's passing.

@@garybusey9689 Australia's first iteration of Skinhead was the Sharpies, one of a few variants from London after the first skinhead wave in the late 60s. it wasn't a white supremacist thing, just raw working class, bored teenagers drinking and fighting. We would consider them in Australia our first westies or at least the parents of what culturally became known as westies ( particularly western Sydney, which is everything west of Parramatta to the foot of the blue mountains ). We had a wave of Oi Skin in the early 80s like UK and USA but to what degree that wave was White supremacy was a driving factor i don't know. Angry teens who love violence are more likely to put on the Boots n Braces without much thought to the consequences of what they are signing up for, if it means they will get some fist action on a Friday night. ;) here's a clip of Melbourne Sharpies, sorry bout the quality kzbin.info/www/bejne/gH_GlYiYi7x7bqcsi=26pJy-6i097is-X_
