Brinquedo Assassino

I was skeptical going into this movie. Hearing that the critics scores were all 5-7 ish stars out of 10, and the fact that the movie was going out of theaters so soon, I felt I was risking some bucks going in I'll admit. But I skimmed over the audience reviews, (ALWAYS listen to audience instead of critics), and I didn't hear one bad review so I decided to go in. Didn't regret a penny. I brought my dad with me (someone who doesn't even enjoy horror movies), and he said it was one of the craziest movies he's seen in a long time.

(Without spoilers given), this movie is nothing like the original. This is a completely new and modern reimagining of the original film. No need to catch up on the previous movies.

Now I don't get scared by movies that easily personally, and other than 2 of the jumps, I wouldn't say this movie SCARED me. The best word to describe this movie is "unsettling". Child's Play definitely was NOT the cheesiest movie I've ever seen, but far from the word "scary". So if you're looking for a drop dead scary movie, this may not be it. But if you're a horror fan like I am, or can just appreciate a good movie, you will have fun.

The acting started off a bit stereotypical but you can forget about that about 15 minutes into it. I always worry about child actors, scared that they'll be your average whiny and screaming kids. But like "It" and "Stranger Things, this movie made sure the kid actors fit the role they played.

The kills were brutal, the music was intense, and (most) of the jump scares were played out the way the way they should be.

Hands down, I recommend seeing this movie while it's in theaters. If you can't catch it then, pick it up digitally or on disc. I think it's safe to say that horror movie remakes may actually have their place. If we can get more horror movies that have clever writing that appeals to the younger audiences of today, while also giving nostalgic horror movie vibes, you got my money. "It", "Halloween", and "Child's Play" have all done everything a horror movie remake should. I can't wait to see what horror movie gets remade next!!

One of the best horror movies ever made and my favourite film of the year so far. Having very low expectations for remakes and not watching the trailer gave me very little reasons to be hyped for this film but the end result is complete satisfaction.

In an era where horror movies are released every other week and is now the favourite cake of the town we have seen many reboots, new experiments like Hereditary and also monster horrors like A Quite Place. Child's Play is uniquely great because it doesn't compromise in violence and is strictly made only for adults. Gabriel Bateman is the star of the film and has given an another great performance as a weird child after his role in Lights Out. Audrey Plaza doesn't have much screen time in this film and is mostly just a supporting cast.

Lars Klevberg shows us a possible future of AI takeover and the dangers of too much sophisticated technology. The way children today spend more time in phones rather than playing in grounds or reading books is one of the biggest tragedies of our time, Klevberg subtly shows how it could lead to a collapse of a society. Poor labour rights, Abusive bosses, excessive technology and the flaws of capitalism are well highlighted in the movie and effectively are the reasons we get to the horror part.

When I went into this movie I was a little hesitant if I was going to enjoy it or not, but I was pleasantly surprised!

They have managed to successfully update the storyline for modern audiences and incorporated today's technology. The kills were much more inventive and they elevated the gore factor.

The character development was strong, with a few emotional scenes. Chucky came across as more of a human character rather than a robot doll. There were so many Easter eggs and nods to the original movie. It would of been a 10 star rating if Chucky said my favourite lines 'wanna play'

It's only of the best films I've seen in 2019.

The movie was a really wild ride. It was really scary even though the main villain is a doll. It was bloody and one of the best reboots. Really good jumpscares. The acting was perfect. I recommend you to watch the movie.

A remake, but certainly not in the traditional sense. Sure there is some resemblance with the original, but it has a complete new origin story for Chucky, to name just one thing. This one is Completely able to stand alone, in my opinion! Well done, I enjoyed it!
