Hi guys, Jediah here and this is another trailer review, it's for the 2015 film "Chappie," directed by Neill Blomkamp (the director of "District 9" and "Elysium"). Now the thing about Neill's career, at now, in its beginning stages is that most adore his first film "District 9," while his second film "Elysium" got a mixed reaction, with some loving it and some hating and some thinking it was 'meh,' I personally am one of the people who loved it and I am looking forward his third film "Chappie," now from what I know and from what I saw in the trailer, Chappie is about a robot invented by this guy, and it kinda develops sentience, but the robot only has the mind of a child and thus it's very innocent and curious in nature, but once the robot starts exploring the world, he only experiences prejudge and starts getting bad influences I'm guessing, I'm not really sure what it's about, but I'm definitely intrigued. The movie seems to be going for a "Short Circuit" vibe, I mean Chappie in the trailer even says "Chappie is alive!" just like "Number Five is alive" in "Short Circuit," though this time in this movie, the sentience is developed on purpose by the scientist, not accidental like in "Short Circuit," but yeah this trailer is very good. Hugh Jackson is the movie, but I'm not sure what role he plays and the titular robot character Chappie is voiced by Sharto Copley (the same actor from "District 9" and "Elysium"; Neill must really love this guy) and they do show what Chappie's voice sounds like and I really like it, it sounds robotic, but also very innocent like a child, Sharto I'm sure is going to kill it in terms of voice acting. The movie seems like it will have action elements, but it won't be the thing that'll drive the movie, the thing that will drive the movie, at from what I saw in the trailer is the relationship between Chappie and the scientist that created him. I'm really looking forward to this movie, I was looking forward to it before, when I heard about it from aag oneeightnine (aka BNN), now that I've seen the trailer, I'm more more excited for it. Check out the trailer below:
