Storyline
In the near future, Indian born Deon Wilson (Dev Patel), is a high
ranking executive in a Robotic Police Force company. When he comes up
with an idea to make a self conscious robot named Chappie to protect
better, his higher-ups disapprove it. Nonetheless, he makes it and when
the company finds out, scraps the robot. When 2 small time criminals
planning a $200 million heist find Chappie, they kidnap Deon and force
him to program Chappie to assist them in their heist. When
power-corrupted military general Vincent (Hugh Jackman) finds out, he
rallies all forces to stop Chappie, at any cost that leads to an
monumental showdown between Good and Evil.
Movie Reviews
This
is a great movie definitely in the style of Niell Blomkamp. However,
some people might consider this a fault, as Elysium was a little off the
mark. What is great about the movie is its style. They really went all
out with Yolandi and Ninja (the main characters part of the musical
group Die Antwoord). Hugh Jackman is pretty hilarious as a bloodthirsty
war vet, selling his role pretty well. The technology in this movie is
fantastic, as usual coming from Blomkamp, leaving plenty of ideas for
the imagination to wonder about for the future. Of course, Chappie
really makes this movie; taking something so technical and robotic,
making it human in action. He really gets the feels going. I haven't
laughed like that in a movie theater in a long time. Add to that the
oddness of the characters influencing the development of Chappie, this
movie is gangster.
