Child's Play

mildly entertaining. an interesting take, but wasn't capitalised-on to its full potential. chucky's visual redesign is trash. film is too long for such a simple plot, despite only being 90 mins. needs to be chopped down. i got sick of looking at gabriel bateman's digruntled face. read more

pretty good!! no more or less flawed than the original or its sequel, and the different approach/modern day spin totally works for me. solid cast, too. i'll watch anything with aubrey plaza, brian tyree henry is great though i wish they would've given him more to do, and i'm an absolute dourif-stanboy so as long as i'm not making a comparison i'll say that hamill is as good as it gets. made me laff, made me wince, didn't bore me; best case scenario, really. that doll is fuckin creepy tho. in a way where it never feels cute/believable that people would want to own such an abomination, but then... read more

الحاجة الوحيدة اللي عدلة في الفيلم هي الإضاءة لكن انا مُخلصة للنسخ الأصلية لتشاكي والأداء الصوتي لبراد دوريف لن يعوض واستخدامهم تعويذة فودوو في الاجزاء الاساسية كانت حركة جامدة زي بالضبط لما يجي على فيلم رعب ويكتب مقتبس من احداث واقعية اكثر جزئية ضايقتني في النسخة دي ان عنف تشاكي مكتسب من العنف عند الاطفال لا مش ماشي معايا سكة... read more

wow the design of the chucky doll is shite read more

My quick rating - 5;6/10. Nice reboot for Buddie...err.....Chucky. Obviously jazzed up for now; but not overly CGI done. No doll running around all computer generated to take away from the "doll" aspect. Pretty much creates a new story for this; and a slightly believable one. SLIGHTLY. Quite fun if the main kid wasn't such a moron; I may have liked it even more. Good humor and just a small dose of blood used so it won't be offending anyone with gore.Overall an enjoyable film that really has nothing to do with the others. And even trying to look cute; the doll looks spooky. read more

I enjoyed the original Chucky film but the sequels got progressively worse. A somewhat remake of the original here with Chucky again causing havoc, this time voiced by Mark Hamill. Its ok only if you don't relate it to the original movie and just treat it as a regular slasher. Its worth watching for horror movie fans. Average read more

Don't really have anything with the Chucky franchise or murder doll movies in general, but this was nice. Some nice kills and the children were not too annoying. read more

I went in expecting to hate this, given how great all the original Chucky movies are and the weird shitty industry politics around it. But, honestly, if you can get past that and pretend it's not tied to the Child's Play brand (it could have easily been its own M3GAN type thing), it kind of rules. I feel very conflicted about that! read more

Not gonna lie they had us in the first half.....then the supermarket part happened. Prior it was a solid remake about a rogue ai murdering people which was believable but once we got to the latter half, we have bear chuckys biting people to death chucky using his ai to control drones that slice people open, etc. all without any explanation. the movie starts and means well but unfortunately fell apart in the end read more

Whilst I was very pleased to see Aubrey Plaza in the starring role of this reboot of the 1988 original, it is a shame that there is little else here to recommend. In this largely unmemorable horror, director Luc Besson has given the creepy doll the benefit of technological advancement as he is now internet connected and through AI aims to become the 'best buddy' of whomever it ends up imprinting upon. Chucky itself has also undergone a considerable face-lift, yet manages to be far less frightening than the original and as a result the film loses almost all of its edge. Even Aubrey cant save... read more
