Storyline
In the near future, Indian born Deon Wilson (Dev Patel), is a high
ranking executive in a Robotic Police Force company. When he comes up
with an idea to make a self conscious robot named Chappie to protect
better, his higher-ups disapprove it. Nonetheless, he makes it and when
the company finds out, scraps the robot. When 2 small time criminals
planning a $200 million heist find Chappie, they kidnap Deon and force
him to program Chappie to assist them in their heist. When
power-corrupted military general Vincent (Hugh Jackman) finds out, he
rallies all forces to stop Chappie, at any cost that leads to an
monumental showdown between Good and Evil.
User Reviews
The trailer of the
movie talks about the black sheep, that is being different, So I would
say this one was the black sheep in the world of sci-fi movies.
The story of a robot, which is being depicted in unbiased manner( not robot-as-a-monster or robot-as-an-angel movie) is quiet refreshing. The robot Chappie not just marvels you but make you emotional at times. So be prepared to get your eyes drenched at times. I think these are some of those moments when you feel this is not a sci-fi or action stereotype, but that is what makes it wonderful.
