Eric Bana (Troy, Munich) gives an incredible performance as real-life convict and author Mark "Chopper" Read in the twisted and savagely funny Chopper. The son of a devoutly religious mother, Chopper dreams of making a name for himself as a legendary figure of infamy. But the wisecracking, would-be criminal mastermind turns out to be a criminal failure who gets tossed in a maximum-security prison. Bowed but unbroken, Chopper manages to twist his life around with a fascinating and wickedly funny retelling…and the press and the public can't get enough!
