Joel C. @Fridaythe13thxx May 13 Such a good movie with so much meaning. It will break your heart and then patch it back together with a glimmer of hope. ♥️ See more Bear B. @BearB May 3 More evidence that professional critics should never be trusted. Very well made film with great CGI (how is it that CGI was better in the mid teens than it is 10 years later?), uniquely entertaining characters and a solid plot. Strangely the acting of the biggest stars (Jackman and Sigourney Weaver) are the weak points of the movie. Die Antwoord are great in their one and only feature film appearance. Chappie as a character is very entertaining and the film overall is thought provoking, especially as we move into more and more robotics and artificial intelligence. This one will gain traction over time, I suspect. See more Mic_Vita T @RT12220743 Mar 23 I absolutely love this movie. I think some characters could be different. But the heart touching story of a robot with feelings is just so great. Definitely worth watching. See more Jack C @MovieRat01 Mar 15 At first glance it looks like a gritty sci-fi action film about robot police in Johannesburg, but underneath that surface is a surprisingly heartfelt story. When engineer Deon Wilson, played by Dev Patel, gives a damaged robot true artificial intelligence, Chappie essentially wakes up like a child, curious, innocent and trying to understand the world around him. What makes the film powerful is watching how he learns about life from the people around him, including criminals played by Ninja and Yolandi Visser. The story quietly explores deeper ideas about upbringing, consciousness and what it really means to be alive. By the time Chappie realises that his battery will eventually run out, the film hits emotionally in a way you don’t expect. It asks a simple but powerful question: if something can think, feel and fear death, doesn’t that make it alive? Messy at times, but full of heart, Chappie is a surprisingly touching sci-fi story that deserved far more attention than it received.

Nothing original here. Terrible film. See more Ken H @Mtnman1953 Feb 2 Not real good! Could not understand the robot half the time. Confessing! See more Read all reviews
