Review of Chappie (2015) by Terraapex — 16 Mar 2015

Same or a bit better than Elysium, worse than District 9. Another great performance by Sharlto Copley. Great visuals. Lots of funny moments. Hugh Jackman is pretty good. But the movie was just pretty good.

The ending is WAY TOO LONG. It also seems that most of the bad stuff that happens during the climax is fixed in the end. Kind of takes you out of the experience. Nothing too original. Not as bad as the critics say.

But just as good from the director that brought us one of the best Sci-Fi movies of the past 10 years. Shame he cannot reach that height again. Hope he does better next time. Maybe it is not Blomkamp's fault.

But it is a shame seeing pretty good movies after a fantastic one.
