This notorious criminal, known for his brutal behavior and flamboyant style, left an indelible mark on the country's crime scene. Eric Bana brings this larger-than-life figure to life in Chopper, a biographical drama that chronicles Read's turbulent years of crime, violence, and self-discovery. The film opens with a young Mark Read, played by Eric Bana as a child (in a stunning performance), who is sent away from home due to his constant troublemaking. This sets the tone for his future antics, as Chopper grows up to become a small-time criminal involved in petty theft and vandalism. However, it's not until he commits a string of violent robberies that his reputation begins to spread. As Chopper's infamy grows, so does his ego. He becomes known for his striking red hair (hence the nickname), flamboyant outfits, and his penchant for violence. The film follows Chopper as he embarks on a series of crimes, including bank robberies and armed hold-ups, which earn him the attention of police and fellow criminals alike.

His fascination with violence and crime is matched only by his interest in prostitutes and drugs, leading to a life of self-destructive excess. Throughout the film, Bana's performance is mesmerizing, capturing the essence of Chopper's larger-than-life personality. The supporting cast, including Vince Colosimo as Chopper's nemesis, Detective Niven, adds depth and nuance to the story.
