Garbage Days, Remember Garbage Days...

Defendor... GET ON IT!
Watched this film last night and oh. my. golly! It's flippin' awesome!
Woody Harrelson is possibly one of the most underrated actors and I really hope that Zombieland has revived his career.
What's this movie all about then... I hear you ask!
Well, just think Rain Man meets Batman, meets Kick Ass and that is Defendor in a nutshell.
It's an amazing superhero comedy brought to life by the skills of Woody Harrelson as Arthur Poppington, a not altogether there adult who has lived a not altogether there life... by day he holds a STOP sign for a construction site, but by night he adorns a duct taped "D" on his polo neck jumper, and a VCR on his back to record every move through his helmet cam.
He's on a life long mission to bring down Captain Industry, eventually aided by a call girl called Kat Debrofkowitz (Kat Dennings, Nick And Norah's Infinite Playlist/The Forty Year Old Virgin) who has inside info about Captain Industry!
Armed with marbles and a trench club inherited from his Grandfather, Defendor takes us on a whirlwind ride through the mind of a man whose own delusion fuels his passion to bring down Captain Industry.
This movie definitely gets two thumbs up and a big fat high five to Mr Harrelson.
For a movie that wasn't majorly advertised, was released in 2009 and is only just getting a DVD release in the UK, this is definitely one to get hold of and spend some time watching
