Fee required.

Neill Blomkamp’s (Elysium, District 9) latest continues his exploration of the increasingly fine line between robot and human. In a near future protected by mechanized police, a droid is stolen and re-programmed. “Chappie” acquires the ability to feel and think for himself and evolves with childlike enthusiasm. As such, he becomes a dangerous and unacceptable reality for those in power. Hugh Jackman and Sigourney Weaver star in this stylized, thoughtful new work of science “fiction.”  D: Neill Blomkamp, US, 2015, 120m
