Reviews are pretty bad so far.

I loved District 9, hated Elysium though. All things said, I'm definitely going to at least give this one a shot - worth seeing on the off chance that it's a return to form for Blomkamp, whatever these early reviews are saying.

Did you see the Blomkamp interview that made the rounds about a week ago about how he regrets how he handled Elysium? He basically said he got so excited about establishing the universe that he let the plot get away from him, which, I think, sounds about right haha. But yeah, agree with the bolded completely.

Chappie looks like it could be alright, at least. I hope it is, anyway. Since Blomkamp's in charge of the next Alien movie (big fan of the franchise here), I need all the good omens about him as a director that I can get! |
