Rutger's influence really made a difference. Hobo with a Shotgun isn't just cheap grindhouse entertainment, its bloody violence and raw emotion tells a powerful story of desperation and the ends to which a man must go to combat the evil in the world, and the dangers of becoming as bad as the monsters you fight. It's a classic tale of vigilante justice, up there with Dirty Harry. It's not just cheap grindhouse it's a man's soul bared on screen in the raw. I say Hobo with a Shotgun is ART.

[@barryjgillis]

Awesome reflections on filmmaking...

[@GunsRbadMkay]

I’m late. I just watched this and wow.

Perhaps you should learn how to use commas before posting unintelligible comments, eh bro?

Бля если б я ещё понимал...

[@catluva74]

This movie was so bad it was great. While Hauer did bring the story together he couldn't have done it without the other actors. Imagine how differently the film would have felt if the pawnshop clerks performance had no emotion.

[@lukemiller118]

Rutger Hauer was a legend of Cult Cinema & his performance as the "Hobo" is my favourite performance from the great actor & the film, Hobo with a shotgun is a MASTERPIECE

[@JensHove]

RIP Rutger Hauer :´-(

[@ViceCityVacation]

I adore Mr. Hauer, ever since I saw him in Blind Fury when it came out. I was a little boy then and slowly got captivated by his effortlessness and naturalistic style of acting. He may not be considered one of the greats, but he can do so much more than those other guys. Keep on rockin Rutger....BTW you need to phone the Oscars, they owe you a little gold statue for Blade Runner.

[@tessa7793]

I agree! He was an awesome, authentic and inteligent man. He will be sorely missed.

[@Cujo_Ate_My_Credit_Card]

Without Rutger this movie might as well been named Homo With a Super Soaker. Good thing they choose him the movie was like a time machine to the 80's Rutger action movies.

[@Niko0902]

[@Losrandir]

Homo with a Super Soaker. I might actually watch that too.

[@ihalloway]

Hauer always was down to earth , child like, warm heart guy, also his eyes are just hypnotizing

[@357kurt]

Fun fact : Hauer used to ride his horse naked before he became famous, he lives near my village so I heared a lot of crazy stories over the years 😅

[@desertrose1226]

You never know with Rutger! He's totally his own person and the type that just does his thing and couldn't give a shit! Lol

[@GPrinceps]

Oddly enough, that sounds like exactly the sort of thing he would do, hah! If it were some other actor I'd be sceptical, but from Rutger, I absolutely believe it.

[@juliegeneric9771]

oh rutger...still loving you, so many decades later...

[@kaiburr77]

It's great to witness a truly cerebral and passionate actor discuss what makes films special and motivating. Rutger is the real deal, I wish he was utilised more often. I couldn't agree more with what he had to say regarding the "glossy" film convention.

[@shadowman2192]

Blind Fury rocked!

[@LivWildStyle]

METAL as FUCK Till the end ❤️

[@desertrose1226]

There ain't many like Mr Hauer around that's for sure, and not many men reach even 60 and look this good. Sure he's a bit mysterious maybe a bit scary, but he's still very articulate and handsome.. The Hitcher is my fav Hauer Classic, he's perfect in it as Ryder, the sexy psychopath! :)

[@desertrose1226]

Those blue eyes became greyer as he aged but never lost their sparkle..god I miss him..

[@kbmls3]

He's delightful.

[@ConnorTheDevil]

@luckyl0tt0 yes i thought rutger was better than david brunt, the original hobo

[@Gandor83]

I grew up on Hauer-movies, saw The hitcher at the age of 5 becouse my dad loved Rutgers performance, its one of my top favorite movies these days and i love the scene between Rutger and the girl in Hobo at the hospital, if you really listen to the music there, i really think its some kind of respect hint back to Mark ishams beautiful end theme score for the Hitcher, the opening of Hobo makes me cry, so perfect and deep and beautiful

[@Sybrakos1]

Thanks for ur comment..

@@jaysonb.6669 He looks about seventy here to me,he may have shaved a few years off of his age,or maybe he's just one of those people who age more quickly,either way he's still cool as fu*k.😎

@@jaysonb.6669 I wasn't aware of his alcohol dependency,it certainly would account for his prematurely aged appearance,it really does take a horrific toll on the body,although his mind still seems sharp enough,no obvious signs of wet brain on view,thankfully,it's a terrible thing to watch a fine mind deteriorating.

[@brendi9822]

@@jenniferpower981 Actually mid 60's. Maybe you have him confused with the botox and plastic manliness of Stallone and Arnold. He looks damn good for his age here. I met him and he is the real deal.

[@brendi9822]

@@jenniferpower981 He didn't actually drink, said he didn't like the way it made him feel. So, not sure where you got that. He did smoke, though, his choices his BUSINESS. I habe to ask- Where do you people think you get the right to just say whatever the hell you want? Did you know him at all? Many others did and your comments are low and unfounded- damn. Wow. I hope someone talks about you this way when you're still alive so you know how low you really are with what you chose to repeat..

[@brendi9822]

Seriously?@@jenniferpower981 It's because it isn't true. If you knew him and listened to him through the years as most real fans have, you'd know this. How low do you have to be to judge others' looks, and age like you are the perfection of the world. Rutger is /was the real deal what you see is what you get. Jiust wow.

[@brendi9822]

To the person on here claiming Rutger had a drinking problem could you just stop? His character did- he did not. As someone who got to know him and speaking for those I know who know him even more than me- just stop. It is hurtful and defaming to do that.

[@olesteak]

Awesome representation of the struggle of good and evil. Prime example of two wrongs do not make a right. Rutger showing more depth than I thought possible for him but he admits it was the direction he received. I expect he grew a lot from his work here. Excellent essay of right being victorious over evil. Good even loses the battles while ultimately winning the wars.

[@brendi9822]

You really need to branch out then. You missed his depth- all of it.
