Neil Blomkamp used the slightly documentary style of "District 9" in "Super Chapai", but this time there was less heavy reverie and more innocence When the cold-blooded and ruthless mechanical policeman turns into a lovable and lovable creature, the movie not only reflects the fate of the bottom society with comedy, but also touches the heart with a nascent movement.
The topic of artificial intelligence is already a commonplace in sci-fi movies. Although "Super Chappie" is not so amazingly innovative in terms of subject matter, Neil, who is good at using sci-fi fables for the real world, this time uses an artificial intelligence mechanical policeman. Chappie's early growth, with a childlike innocence and cuteness, not only allowed the audience to see the chaos at the bottom of society in the slums, but also focused on the beauty of human nature. Chappie was hijacked by a group of gangsters. They hoped to use the reinforced mechanical police for their own use, but unexpectedly Chappie, who was equipped with artificial intelligence, was just a blank slate of thinking, and thus in a dark and cruel world. In the corner of society, the story of a group of bad guys teaching "children" has reached an ironic comedy rendering.
Born in South Africa, Neil, who has two faces and a country with a huge gap between the rich and the poor, has undoubtedly nurtured his unique creative thinking about movies, from "District 9" to "Elysium" to this "Superpower" Chappie", his films are all committed to the compatibility of science fiction and poverty, so as to achieve a thought-provoking conflict in the plot, while the starting point of "Super Chappie" is that the director entrusts the film to explore the most fundamental crux of poverty, the poor are not Because there is no innate ability to change poverty, but because the fate of poverty cannot be changed the day after tomorrow, in fact, the robot Chappie is like a child from the bottom of the society. Crime, but always keeping kindness, this is more because of the correct orientation of Dean, the creator of Chappie, but in real life, at the bottom of the sin, who can play the role of Dean?
"Super Chappie" has a profound theme and a far-reaching idea, but unfortunately it failed to draw a satisfactory conclusion at the end. The film begins to be biased in the second half, transforming consciousness into storable data, which seems to be a brain. In fact, the ending of the opening of the hole did not sublimate the proposition that the previous chapter had brilliantly rendered. From the ending, the director's vision was still trapped and limited to the success of "District 9", while Hugh Jack Man's villain line is the most unsuccessful part of the film. He is more like a dispensable soy sauce party, with no attractive and unconvincing villain motives, making it difficult for an excellent pattern to become a masterpiece.
The pure companion movement, the robot Chappie is full of pure mechanical cores, which makes people witness a precious goodwill in the trough of sin. No one in this world is born with sin.
