Sound Off: Neill Blomkamp's New Sci-Fi 'Chappie' – Your Thoughts?

Written by

Now that you’ve seen it, what did you think? “I’m consciousness. I’m alive. I’m Chappie.” It’s time for more sci-fi. Director Neill Blomkamp (of District 9, Elysium) returns with his third feature, Chappie, set in a near-future South Africa about a robot given life through artificial intelligence. Sharlto Copley stars as Chappie the robot (in motion capture) with Dev Patel, Ninja & Yo-Landi Visser (of Die Antwoord), Hugh Jackman, Sigourney Weaver and Jose Pablo Cantillo. So how is Blomkamp’s new robot movie – any good? Better than Elysium, same as District 9? How are the human characters compared to Chappie? If you’ve seen it, leave a comment below with your own thoughts on Neill Blomkamp’s new sci-fi Chappie. ›››
