'Chappie' Review

I recently saw Chappie and enjoyed it despite the mixed reviews  however I will admit that I even had mixed feelings about this film. The best parts of the film are the visual effects, action scenes, and Chappie himself. It is very entertaining to see Chappie become more self aware as an A.I. The parts I disliked is that there is a South African gangs present in the film that seem to serve no larger purpose for the plot of the film and are quite irritating. It was very annoying to watch them corrupt Chappie in some parts of the film. I will say that Hugh Jackman gives an incredible performance as the antagonist and this has made me very excited to see what he does in Pan as Blackbeard. This wasn't too surprising to me as Hugh Jackman seems to be great in every film. I really liked his character as he was ruthless and manipulative. Another character I liked was Chappie's creator who I felt wasn't given a large enough role to service the plot but was fun to watch. Overall, Chappie is a good film but not a great one. I would only recommend watching it if you were previously interested in Chappie.

Ideas for my blog

Given the success of this blog, I am currently considering either separating TV reviews and publishing them on a separate new blog called TVAssessment, only publishing the TV reviews as individual posts, or publishing the TV Reviews only on a page, which are the tabs you can select on the side of the site. I appreciate it if I received comments with a suggestion for this idea or expressing your thoughts of what you would like to see done. I am also considering no longer publishing TV reviews after the current season is finished since I will be going into college next semester and the TV reviews require more work and need to be posted more frequently. Please let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

Overview

I am very thankful for all for you who read my blog and it's posts and hope you continue to read my reviews. If you would like to see links to my reviews as well as keep up with movie news like my Facebook page, FilmAssessment or follow my blog's Twitter account @FilmAssessment, I currently am not as active on my blog's Twitter account because it only has 3 followers but if it receives more I will be more active on it.
