  • Overview

    Every child comes into the world full of promise, and none more so than Chappie: he is gifted, special, a prodigy. Like any child, Chappie will come under the influence of his surroundings—some good, some bad—and he will rely on his heart and soul to find his way in the world and become his own man. But there's one thing that makes Chappie different from any one else: he is a robot.

Roger Ebert

"Chappie" brings nothing new to the table in this regard and eventually abandons all of its philosophical musings for a series of noisy but largely anonymous action set-pieces.

The Critical Movie Critics

Blomkamp is unsubtle but highly effective in garnering sympathy for the eponymous robot, a decommissioned police droid given experimental consciousness.

Variety

Absent 'District 9’s' subtle apartheid allegory or 'Elysium’s' health-care brief, but offering a bizarre performance showcase for the rap-rave group Die Antwoord, Blomkamp’s third feature exhausts its meager ideas and the viewer well before the end.

The New York Times

Frankenstein’s monster gets a titanium makeover in ‘Chappie,’ a science-fiction blood-spurter and would-be heart-warmer that wavers uncertainly between laughter and tears.

IGN

Whatever else may be wrong with the film, the robot, Chappie, is most definitely right.

The Guardian

Chappie is a futuristic law-and-order nightmare set in a chaotic Johannesburg perennially on the verge of social breakdown.

The A.V. Club

Fashionably grim futures. Visceral firefights in war-torn ghettoes.
