Great concept but Die Antwoord fucking ruined it. Should've casted actual actors, let alone decent human beings...

Definitely dont check out his latest film then, lol.

2 other robot fighting movies that came out around the same time?
Real Steel came out 4 years prior, but it did star Hugh Jackman.

You hit the nail on the head... I was expecting something a bit more subtle, not 'zany characters set against each other'

By the time we got to the point where a gangsta rapping, gang-sign-throwing robot that sounded like Wikus from District 9 was having a brawl with Wolverine in an office cubicle...my tolerance for the surreal hit its peak and I checked out completely.

Hey, just noticed the director of that. He directed some of Game of Thrones most acclaimed episodes.

Sapochnik is a legend. He's one of the showrunners for House of the Dragon, which is the main reason I think it might actually be awesome.

Completely agree..like the end of District 9 with Wikus in the suit was satisfying but the whole movie was more build up around his character and the choice at the end to let Christopher and his son go. Chappie just felt all over the place..

Honestly, District 9 feels more and more like a fluke every time Blomkamp makes a new movie. How is District 9 so raw, direct, and satisfying while his subsequent projects are super heavy-handed, clumsy, and awkward? It's like he had one great idea, got famous off it, and then felt pressured to follow up with items from his C-list lol

I have and Chappie is easily more annoying than Jar Jar Binks. It's night and day the difference in quality from District 9 to Chappie is.

Apparently he made another movie this year called Demonic that has a 15% approval on RT after 80 reviews, so...you know, in keeping with the trend, I guess.
