This is a paradox, as the film's protagonist himself is famous for lying and exaggerating. What we're watching, then, is a fictionalized account of a man whose own autobiography is already fictionalized.
Chopper eventually lands in prison again and writes a best-selling book, becoming a cult hero.
There's not nearly enough actual intrigue or suspense to maintain a feature film. Bana is obviously trying to play Chopper like a cruel, wise-cracking bully, but he comes off as cretinous more than anything. Even Darth Vader never hit a woman.
