I think it's a strong possibility that doll in end they beat up wasn't really chucky, that was a minion he was using. The real one was the box with the glowing eyes watching it all happen.
@@BrettManGRH true haha I mean this chucky is AI it learns and adapts. I just dont think it's possible it would put himself out there with risk of dying when he has pawns to use
Yeah ive been saying the same because if I'm correct the first doll was stabbed and the second that was shot had on new clothes. I think it was one of those "you won this time but I'll be back" moments because I'm sure he seen the detective coming on camera
@@demarcol15 You peeped that too. A lot of people that reviewed it didn't notice that there were 2 dolls. I believe Chucky was in the box at the end because he put himself in the box earlier when he went to the other boy.
My favorite part is probably the most random for people, but I really like one specific moment. It's when Andy and Chucky are playing the board game and Chucky does something to make Andy smile and Chucky smiles back and does this thing where he makes the cutest face while also saying yay I'm awesome throwing his arm up. Just the innocence and fun like in that moment, like E.T., and then right back to dark.
My favorite scene was when chucky brought Andy the popsicle tick with the bow on it. It was adorable and showed how much he loved Andy. Another favorite I believe is When Andy locked him in the room and chucky was like I don’t understand what i did wrong and he was torn apart that Andy basically just leaves him in the dark room like a bad pet that pisses off the owner simply by being itself. It was really sad. I almost cried, lol. The way he was looking and you just see Andy in the background not even acknowledging him. It really adds layers as to why chucky wanted to open him up to see what he was dealing with.
The kills were creative because they had to be due to copyright and them not being able to even reuse kills from current Chucky movies, the director spoke of this in an interview. He mentioned how the boyfriends head was originally just going to be decapitated but since it happens in Cult, they couldn't use it so they worked around it with the watermelon which was really creative in my opinion. The only negative I'd say that it had was it felt too short, it feels like a lot of stuff was cut out (which the trailers showed) that could have added a few more layers. But besides that, I enjoyed it. I loved how they managed to make you feel bad for Chucky and somewhat sympathize with him even in the end.
My friend Cameron and I watched Texas Chainsaw 2 (not knowing what we were gonna expect seeing Child’s Play) literally four days before seeing this movie. Seeing that homage in this movie was such a special and gratifying experience for both of us, I’m glad we weren’t going crazy thinking it was a true reference lol.
I LOVED this Chucky, and I LOVE the Brad Dourif Chucky. This Chucky had me so emotional, Mark Hamill did a great job. My favorite part would have to be when Chucky is killing the boyfriend and he says "This is for 2Pac", made me laugh so hard
My favorite scene was a flash in the pan. When they were in the toy store and chucky is making the big screen go nuts. You see the old man saying "Time to" and then Chucky pops up on the screen for a second "Play!" I didn't much care for the fact that I felt bad for Chucky pretty much throughout the film. And finally, great review. But the Maintenance Guy was hanging by his hands on a steam pipe. Not his neck. Chucky used his new found ability to connect to the thermostat and cranked up the heat until Maintenance Guys hands started to burn.
Andy`s not the villain either.The true villains are the Vietnamese employee who turned Chucky`s safety protocols off because he was tired of being treated like shit by his boss(As well as the boss whose abuse made him angry enough to pull a stunt like that) and decided if he was going down,he`d take the whole company with him even if it meant endangering an innocent family halfway across the world in the process and Gabe,the pervy hacker/janitor, who reactivated Chucky`s ability to connect to Kaslan products to spy on Andy`s mom in the shower!
It reminded me of Small Soldiers quite a bit, with more gore. I had a good time with it. Hard to imagine Andy getting another doll so I wonder how he and his mom could tie in to a sequel. Maybe while Chucky was controlling the other dolls and had access to the cloud he removed all the safety protocols so theoretically we could get a "Chucky" out of any number of dolls in the future.
Also,technically Chucky`s not the real name in either incarnation.The original`s real name as we know is Charles Lee Ray and the reboot version`s real name is Buddi 1.0.
Just came out of the theatre and holy shit it was great!!The guy when he was taking off the Christmas lights and when he falls on his feet and you see bone pop out, scary and gnarly as hell. And discount jack black which who I also thought he was, when he got his leg cut off, and detective Mike's mother when she's in the electric car and Chucky is just crashing the car Eveywhere and that jumpscare and he kills her, and it was an emotional scene when Mike sees her, and Omar, which is my real name I like how he joins them to defeat Chucky, Loved the humor, the zed Mart massacre was my favorite scene till the end, and I hope for a sequel
I'm not the biggest Freddy fan but i think it would be cool if Chucky watched one of his movies in a sequel and thats where he learns more personality from, like how he gained inspiration from TCM 2 in this one
Dude! I said the same thing the other day while talking about this movie! Andy is definitely the villain here! It’s so rare that you feel for the villain of a slasher flick moreso than you do his victims. It’s an angle that really worked for me, and I loved the movie because of it!
Tonight I was debating whether or not to spend my night off going to see this movie. Beforehand I thought, that guy from those awesome Halloween reviews probably has one up for this! So I found the non spoiler review and realized you enjoyed the movie! That was enough for me to go see the movie and I have to say I did very much enjoy it! I had to make sure I put the originals outside of my mind and watch it for the film it is. Wasn’t disappointed! It’s not perfect but worth the viewing experience. Thanks for the great reviews! You definitely earned my subscription!
I enjoyed the remake a lot! I was so scared that I wasn’t gonna like it, but boy was I wrong! It’s definitely one of my favorite movies of the year & I even put it in my top 5 favorite Child’s Play movies!
The only part I hated was when Chucky was choking the cat and then killed it. Then the playback of the cat being killed and in pain. I have 2 cats myself so that part took it down some. I'll give it a 7.5/10
I liked Chucky because he wasn't your typical @$$hole killer. It's a breath of fresh air to the genre. It's similar to Chopping mall which is a classic. I'd love to see them do more of that. I actually want a Buddi now.
Dug it alot, loved the new direction and social commentary, if they did the same exact thing why watch that when you could just watch the original, just my opinion, great review. The this is for Tupac line had me dying.
I loved this film and I really liked the emotional aspects of the film, there were times where I found myself feeling bad for chucky and I really liked that. I did enjoy the performances as well, Mark Hamill and Aubrey Plaza, but Gabriel Bateman really a standout to me, he sold it with all the scences he was in especially the emotional ones, hope he gets more roles. I really hope this film gets a sequel because there is so much that can be explored. Anyways, enjoyed your review and keep up the great work.
This chucky really reminded me of a terminator chucky. Not just bc hes a robot, but also because he learns human emotions. But instead of terminator where he learns compassion, chucky learns anger and envy.
just saw it! And honestly? MUCH BETTER than expected. Was a lot of fun, sometimes really scary, sometimes really gory, ultimately it was well done! and I'd see it again!
and I liked this SO much more than that curse of chucky stuff. I know it wasn't the original production company but thank god - they did this remake well.
This movie was surprisingly entertaining and it makes you feel bad for Chucky cause basically confused in the world and the reason why he was bad because of the people around him . Basically a message to be careful what you expose your children . But I really love the theme songs made by Bear MCcreay very hyper and addictive. ( Y’all realize Plaza played crazy characters this is a calm down role to her )
Had a great time with this movie. Loved that they took elements from the previous movies but added some really cool touches. I agree that Hamill was awesome but not better than Dourif. Chucky was just a kid learning from his environment. Thanks for another great review Lee. Take care mate.
I really enjoyed the movie, it had it's own spin, I felt like this movie could of been called Buddie the new doll story, like I said it had it's own spin.
My favorite part was chucky himself. Mark Hammil was so damn creepy lol. When he’s standing next to Andy sleeping and starts whispering to him, fuck that. I also liked how he could control his face, the scene where he’s trying to scare the boyfriend from behind the fridge door was hilarious.
It looks like it left my local movie theatre on Monday as they have Spider-Man-Far From Home on 2 screens. Oh well i'll be able to rent the blu ray in a few months at my local video store.
Watching this Video while on the patio of my family’s vacation condo by the Beach drinking a Dr. Pepper and Captain Morgan. Freaking amazing time. Freaking love this channel.
Lol I thought of office space when that scene happened too and almost started laughing in the theater. Hope we get a sequel and I’m definitely going to see it again
chucky looked like a puppet from team america lol overall it was a cool take especially these days with all the technology i reckon. I caught my self singing the buddi song at Starbucks anyways awesome spoiler review and child's play 2 2021 🙊
I feel it was fine , brought back the dark tone that 3 and the rest after that fucked up, the creepiest part for me was when he played the cats wails while andy was in bed , that's one fucked up "best friend " over all I enjoyed it and I think AI is a bit more horrifying than voodoo.
The scene where they “killed” Chucky the first time was so sad! I liked the movie but wish it went more into the theme of everything Chucky does is a result of learning terrible behaviour but it kind of loses that thread.
My only downside to this movie was that towards the end the concept of chucky using an army of Buddi 2s arises and goes away almost immediately. I really hope in a sequel it keeps the buddi factory setting from Childs Play 2 and we get various Buddis in different stages of completion going ham Also. I said to my girlfriend the night before that i was excited to see Chucky on the big screen and one day hopefully I'll get to see Jason and Leatherface too as they're my favourites so the TCM2 scene was fucking amazing for me and I'm totally counting it. Just Jason to go now
If we're talking about the Child's Play remake, I gotta say I freaking love the soundtrack! Bear McCreary is a genius! Also, I think the Zed Mart Massacre scene was my favorite.
I just saw this today. Its a very good remake they did what a remake should take risks and go in a different direction and not do a shot for shot remake. Only thing i have to say theres elements in this movie that were in don mancinis orginal script. Theres a interview when curse came out and he tslked about each film and describes what his original screenplay was.
How did chucky charge Even dji drones need charged iPhones and Mac books And I doubt a series one chucky would have a longer battery life than Robo Master s1 battery last 30 min
I haven’t seen the new child’s play remake; I want to. I’ve been enjoying all the commentary that I’ve seen on TH-cam surrounding this movie. Love your perspective that Andy is the villain and child’s play and everything he did with Chucky is his fault and at the end, he is realizing that he played a part in Chucky’s evil behavior. That’s something that some of the reviewer‘s haven’t really touched on.
The movie captioned the old new in fresh way like a people almost didn't want new chucky but im glad did really loved and gore and still never seen cult
I loved it! You actually felt bad for Chucky in this,there was a lot more emotion,the kills were awesome and Mark Hamill was excellent I hope they make more I had a friend who said Hamill should've been more psychotic sounding and I'm thinking no because if he would've done that he would've been sounding like the Joker and he was a kids toy so he's not going to sound psychotic

I'm starting to get use to the AI Chucky doll. I believe the movie will get better and better on each watch for me. My favorite moment is when Chucky kills Shane. The guy was a scumbag. Awesome review bro 😎
A moment that made me laugh out loud was when Andy brought over the kids to help him with the head. Pugg reactions were priceless the best one was when he said "I think it winked at me" I lost it in the theater.
The Buddi 2 doll also reminded me of a teddy bear in the "Honey,I Shrunk The Kids" TV series that started out as an innocent child`s toy but Wayne Szalinski,the father,did an experiment to increase its intellect but in the process,a computer virus got into the intelligence-enhancing chip turning it evil.(Then it took control of other toys turning them evil and making them attack their human owners,complete with red eyes!)
I actually dressed up as the Classic Michael Myers at the Halloween haunted house at my high school(Which was an art high school in Downtown Long Beach,it looks different now because it`s totally renovated but it`s still around unlike my middle school!),and as I am a method actor I didn`t talk,I just breathed all the while I was wearing the mask!
Great review as always, shouldn't have watched this review until I actually watched this movie but I felt like as a loyal subscriber and friend I had to support you brother and watch the video, and make sure to give it a thumbs up. So as always keep up the great work, we all love you, and thank you for the great content as always, and of course for creating "Killer Flicks" that allows the social outcasts such as myself have a place to go and feel like part of a family. Thank you Lee and everyone who makes Killer Flicks the best group on all of Facebook!
David King What I do in this situation is I’ll play the video on mute & do something else so he gets my view, & I’ll go ahead & give it a thumbs up. Then come back & actually watch it after I’ve seen the movie. That way he gets your support when the video is uploaded & nothing gets spoiled for you. I know it’s difficult to do sometimes. Wolfman’s video came out before I’d seen the movie & I was excited to hear his thoughts, but I couldn’t watch it yet. It was his non spoiler review but I wasn’t watching anything, not even trailers.
I don’t know how to describe my feelings for this movie. I didn’t hate it, but I definitely didn’t love it. It was an “o.k.”movie....a very loose ok. I went into the movie ready to enjoy a reboot. My biggest issue is that there were too many nods to the original that didn’t quite land for me. 1. Why did Chucky call himself Chucky? The movie is called Child’s Play, not Chucky. They changed good guy to buddi so why couldn’t his name have been something else? Him not knowing anything else, but knowing to call himself Chucky was bogus. 2. Why was Andy hearing impaired? There were maybe three times (I think) that Chucky communicated to Andy through the hearing aid. Other than that, it was a moot point. 3. Detective Mike was EXTREMELY underutilized. And was that a nod to the semi-romantic relationship of the OG characters at the end? 4. Detective Mike coming back to save them was also a miss, they should’ve done something else especially with how cool that sequence was. Those are some things that I wanted to point out. I wish that this movie would’ve stayed away from the nods and took more time separating itself from the original. The a.i. Aspect of this movie gave them an awesome opportunity to just go off on its own. As I mentioned, the movie is called Child’s Play, they should’ve just told a horrifying story about another killer toy. All new characters with subtle homages would’ve sold me. I think a lot of the people that loved this movie just loved that it didn’t totally suck and that it brought back the characters (mostly in name only). Also, the sequel should do what Halloween 3 did and give us a movie that’s just some crazy funhouse ride about toys and technology. I don’t want to see buddi Chucky aka ‘Bucky’ (which is what I’m going to call him from now on) anymore. With all that being said, again, I didn’t hate it, but I didn’t love it. On a higher note, I liked the comedy, I liked the idea of bucky learning to be evil, I loved Andy’s acting and I liked the musical theme (not the buddi song). Thanks for the review. I’m heading over to Cody’s page to leave this exact same comment. Lol. Also, which reviewers hated the movie? I’d like to hear their thoughts.
I’m giving this movie a score of 7/10. I didn’t enjoy it as much as I expected and it’s because this movie felt rushed and there wasn’t enough violence for me to enjoy this but I did enjoy Andy’s relationship with Chucky. And I also which the movie was longer so we can get to know the characters better.
I am firmly in the camp of people who don't give a shit about this franchise, and I enjoyed this movie. A lot of fun, and Mark Hammill did a great job.
Hey Lee another great example of a remake that took the same basic idea and put a great fresh spin on it was The Fly. The Fly remake instead of a teleportation accident with a Fly that resulted in body parts of man and fly getting swapped it changed it to a DNA fusion which gave it a whole new fresh interesting spin. The Fly and Child’s Play, 2 great examples of how to do a remake
I thought that it was better than the Original, but it wasn’t as good as Child’s Play 2. I felt like a broken record saying that on killer flix today with all the Child’s Play posts lol
Also, I really enjoyed the movie. If i had to point out something I didn’t like, Andy’s friends are pointless. If you take them away and let Andy be completely alone outside of his mother and Chucky; I think it would have made for more of a connection to the doll. The friends honestly take away from the tension.
@The Eternal Induction They had enough character development, particularly their unwitting role in Chucky`s further corruption in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 scene Lee mentioned in this video(The initial corruption of course being at the hands of the disgruntled Vietnamese employee who removed his safety protocols because he was sick of being treated like shit by his boss and decided if he was going down, he'd take the whole company with him even if it meant recklessly endangering an innocent family halfway across the world in the process). and banding together to take down Chucky Pennywise-style at the end(Even though we know that wasn`t the real Chucky that was killed and New Chucky A.I. nature means he can just transfer himself into another defective Kaslan doll which obviously is what happened!)
I hold no attachment to the original, but I have seen the first 3 movies. I thought Brad Doruf was a great Chucky. I am pleased that Mark Hamil went with the more sympathetic yet murderous route where Chucky was very sympathetic. I found myself going "I'll be your friend" during the movie... and it was sad that this broken Chucky doll seen as inferior gets attached to Andy. The route they went was very very nice. I was scared that this would be a shitty remake but it's not even in that vein. It's different, and in it's own way, Mark probably knew he wouldn't be able to touch Brad's legendary performance, so he went in a different direction. If anything... I am glad it was Mark Hamil... cause than we get the Joker.. .and he already is such a great voice actor. If it was a nobody, it probably wouldn't have been as good! There were also times I saw myself in Andy (bad phrasing!!!) as he had difficulty making friends and seemed to like being by himself, something that I am very much still suffering through... The bad stuff that was happening was mainly "Be careful what you wish for" and "Youthful stupidity" But that made it more enjoyable and darkly funny when Chucky replayed his words back to him. This kid was amazing! The kid stole my damn line from me at the beginning. I was literally thinking "That's not creepy at all" the same time he said it himself.
I saw this movie 3 times in the theater and I loved it more and more each time and I really dig the robo cop reference toward the end such a brilliant fresh take on a beloved classic
I'm a huge chucky fan and I loved this movie. It was fun yet scary and creepy. Everything chucky did either made me feel sad or creeped or smiled. Thats a feat I didnt think theyd be able to pull off.
I think this is my favourite movie so far this year, and don't think it will be beaten for me. For example, I expected endgame to be good, however I was worried for child's play and I was really hoping this would be good. Kept the open mind going in to cinema and put aside original Chucky for duration of movie, and absolutely loved it as a result. Really hope it gets a sequel, it deserves one
I thought the way that chucky got his name in this movie was very lazy, in the original it was chucky lee ray inside the doll but in this movie the doll just randomly wants to be named chucky?
Well, tonight, saw Toy Story 4 and Child's Play. Toy Story 4 got a C from me, Child's Play got a B-. Shows which one I liked better, and I feel, if they 100% put it as it's own, dropped the Chucky, dropped the Child's Play, and just simply went 100% their own movie, easy A. It's that latching onto the franchise that hurt it I felt.
I watched it the other day. The first 30 mins I was not a fan. Once I separated myself from the orginal I really started to enjoy it. What I found especially creepy was how much Chucky cared for Andy. All tge stuff he did was because he wanted to help Andy.
I think it's a strong possibility that doll in end they beat up wasn't really chucky, that was a minion he was using. The real one was the box with the glowing eyes watching it all happen.
Chucky pulled an Ultron trick from Avengers: Age of Ultron
@@BrettManGRH true haha I mean this chucky is AI it learns and adapts. I just dont think it's possible it would put himself out there with risk of dying when he has pawns to use
I believe they killed 2 different dolls. The second didn't have a stab wound. Yes I believe that was Chucky at the end.
Yeah ive been saying the same because if I'm correct the first doll was stabbed and the second that was shot had on new clothes. I think it was one of those "you won this time but I'll be back" moments because I'm sure he seen the detective coming on camera
@@demarcol15 You peeped that too. A lot of people that reviewed it didn't notice that there were 2 dolls. I believe Chucky was in the box at the end because he put himself in the box earlier when he went to the other boy.

It really adds layers as to why chucky wanted to open him up to see what he was dealing with.
Yes Chucky was VERY different as a character in this one. I dug that.
The kills were creative because they had to be due to copyright and them not being able to even reuse kills from current Chucky movies, the director spoke of this in an interview.
He mentioned how the boyfriends head was originally just going to be decapitated but since it happens in Cult, they couldn't use it so they worked around it with the watermelon which was really creative in my opinion.

HOLLY CLINE That is my favorite line in the movie Holly.
I loved the emotional range of Andy in this. I also loved how this Chucky was filled with child like wonder. Such a great fricking movie
My favorite scene was a flash in the pan. When they were in the toy store and chucky is making the big screen go nuts. You see the old man saying "Time to" and then Chucky pops up on the screen for a second "Play!"
I didn't much care for the fact that I felt bad for Chucky pretty much throughout the film.
And finally, great review. But the Maintenance Guy was hanging by his hands on a steam pipe. Not his neck. Chucky used his new found ability to connect to the thermostat and cranked up the heat until Maintenance Guys hands started to burn.
Andy`s not the villain either.The true villains are the Vietnamese employee who turned Chucky`s safety protocols off because he was tired of being treated like shit by his boss(As well as the boss whose abuse made him angry enough to pull a stunt like that) and decided if he was going down,he`d take the whole company with him even if it meant endangering an innocent family halfway across the world in the process and Gabe,the pervy hacker/janitor, who reactivated Chucky`s ability to connect to Kaslan products to spy on Andy`s mom in the shower!
Mark Hamill's Chucky was so sweet and innocent and that just was super creepy.
It reminded me of Small Soldiers quite a bit, with more gore. I had a good time with it. Hard to imagine Andy getting another doll so I wonder how he and his mom could tie in to a sequel. Maybe while Chucky was controlling the other dolls and had access to the cloud he removed all the safety protocols so theoretically we could get a "Chucky" out of any number of dolls in the future.
Also,technically Chucky`s not the real name in either incarnation.The original`s real name as we know is Charles Lee Ray and the reboot version`s real name is Buddi 1.0.
"Discount Jack Black" is named Trent Redekop and the character is named Gabe.www.imdb.com/title/tt8663516/characters/nm5529424
Just came out of the theatre and holy shit it was great!!The guy when he was taking off the Christmas lights and when he falls on his feet and you see bone pop out, scary and gnarly as hell.

That would be badass. Not gonna lie.
Loved this movie!
Great kills.
Loved the tcm part also.
And one of the oneliners made me laugh so hard.
'This is for Tupac' 😂😂😂
@Jorge Molina the 'texas chainsaw massacre part' ;)
Dude! I said the same thing the other day while talking about this movie! Andy is definitely the villain here! It’s so rare that you feel for the villain of a slasher flick moreso than you do his victims. It’s an angle that really worked for me, and I loved the movie because of it!

Agreed!And the fact that was one of the first kills brought down my level of sympathy for Reboot Chucky/Buddi a great deal!
I liked Chucky because he wasn't your typical @$$hole killer. It's a breath of fresh air to the genre. It's similar to Chopping mall which is a classic. I'd love to see them do more of that. I actually want a Buddi now.
Dug it alot, loved the new direction and social commentary, if they did the same exact thing why watch that when you could just watch the original, just my opinion, great review. The this is for Tupac line had me dying.
I thought it was a good slasher. A different approach to the Chucky character. Plus the story between Andy and Chucky you were invested in.
The ladder scene when that guy's ankles snapped ouch
Looking forward towards It chapter 2 in September
@The Eternal Induction Most likely it won`t because the Musciettis are being given more creative freedom!

Imagine a Chucky Apocalypse that would be awesome
I really enjoyed the movie, it had it's own spin, I felt like this movie could of been called Buddie the new doll story, like I said it had it's own spin.
My favorite part was chucky himself. Mark Hammil was so damn creepy lol. When he’s standing next to Andy sleeping and starts whispering to him, fuck that. I also liked how he could control his face, the scene where he’s trying to scare the boyfriend from behind the fridge door was hilarious.
Lee said it best “Disgruntled employees are dangerous people” lol. Love the review keep them coming.
That shit had me dying lmao
Haha thank you!
Sky Min same here lol
Drumdums You’re welcome!
It looks like i will have to wait until Child's Play 2019 comes out on dvd and blu ray to see it. And pretty much the samething with Brightburn.
It looks like it left my local movie theatre on Monday as they have Spider-Man-Far From Home on 2 screens. Oh well i'll be able to rent the blu ray in a few months at my local video store.
Child's play series needed this, from seed to cult can get a Fuck this movie. Even Bride was ok. 2019 remake fun movie, great kills!!
The franchise needed a better movie lolb
TOTS
Ryon Webster curse of Chucky was kinda good imo
Watching this Video while on the patio of my family’s vacation condo by the Beach drinking a Dr. Pepper and Captain Morgan. Freaking amazing time. Freaking love this channel.
Hell yeah!! Sounds awesome man.
Lol I thought of office space when that scene happened too and almost started laughing in the theater. Hope we get a sequel and I’m definitely going to see it again
chucky looked like a puppet from team america lol overall it was a cool take especially these days with all the technology i reckon. I caught my self singing the buddi song at Starbucks anyways awesome spoiler review and child's play 2 2021 🙊
My favorite moment of the movie is Chucky's one liner saying this is for Tupac
I feel it was fine , brought back the dark tone that 3 and the rest after that fucked up, the creepiest part for me was when he played the cats wails while andy was in bed , that's one fucked up "best friend " over all I enjoyed it and I think AI is a bit more horrifying than voodoo.
The scene where they “killed” Chucky the first time was so sad! I liked the movie but wish it went more into the theme of everything Chucky does is a result of learning terrible behaviour but it kind of loses that thread.
My only downside to this movie was that towards the end the concept of chucky using an army of Buddi 2s arises and goes away almost immediately. I really hope in a sequel it keeps the buddi factory setting from Childs Play 2 and we get various Buddis in different stages of completion going ham
Also. I said to my girlfriend the night before that i was excited to see Chucky on the big screen and one day hopefully I'll get to see Jason and Leatherface too as they're my favourites so the TCM2 scene was fucking amazing for me and I'm totally counting it. Just Jason to go now
i was one of the people not happy with the changes but i was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed it for what it was
I hate the fact that Chucky has to kill the family cat cause I'm a cat person.
If we're talking about the Child's Play remake, I gotta say I freaking love the soundtrack! Bear McCreary is a genius! Also, I think the Zed Mart Massacre scene was my favorite.
I really enjoyed the lighthearted feel that this movie had to it, the look of the doll fit what they were going for.
I just saw this today. Its a very good remake they did what a remake should take risks and go in a different direction and not do a shot for shot remake. Only thing i have to say theres elements in this movie that were in don mancinis orginal script. Theres a interview when curse came out and he tslked about each film and describes what his original screenplay was.
How did chucky charge
Even dji drones need charged
iPhones and Mac books
And I doubt a series one chucky would have a longer battery life than Robo Master s1 battery last 30 min
I like the part of the movie where he was Choking the Crap Out Of Andy’s Cat For Scratching Andy, Also This is My Favorite Out Of All Of The Movies
Mine too
The puscifer shirt👌 great review man!
I haven’t seen the new child’s play remake; I want to. I’ve been enjoying all the commentary that I’ve seen on TH-cam surrounding this movie.
Love your perspective that Andy is the villain and child’s play and everything he did with Chucky is his fault and at the end, he is realizing that he played a part in Chucky’s evil behavior. That’s something that some of the reviewer‘s haven’t really touched on.
Thank you for watching!
Perfect review 👍
The movie captioned the old new in fresh way like a people almost didn't want new chucky but im glad did really loved and gore and still never seen cult
I loved it! You actually felt bad for Chucky in this,there was a lot more emotion,the kills were awesome and Mark Hamill was excellent I hope they make more I had a friend who said Hamill should've been more psychotic sounding and I'm thinking no because if he would've done that he would've been sounding like the Joker and he was a kids toy so he's not going to sound psychotic
Another aspect that I really liked in this movie was the Score. It played very well with the creepiness of the new Chucky

I always love 3 @@MrHatMovieReviews
My favorite moment is Mark Hamill he's the best part for Chucky also the girl that was covered in maple syrup she going to have some major PTSD.
Hamill nailed it actually.
@@DrumdumsOfficial your God damn right
I'm starting to get use to the AI Chucky doll. I believe the movie will get better and better on each watch for me. My favorite moment is when Chucky kills Shane. The guy was a scumbag. Awesome review bro 😎
Agreed brother. It would be cool to have an AI Chucky franchise even.
A moment that made me laugh out loud was when Andy brought over the kids to help him with the head. Pugg reactions were priceless the best one was when he said "I think it winked at me" I lost it in the theater.
Just the fact that you said I'm a Myers guy....that's right 🎃
Damn right!
The Buddi 2 doll also reminded me of a teddy bear in the "Honey,I Shrunk The Kids" TV series that started out as an innocent child`s toy but Wayne Szalinski,the father,did an experiment to increase its intellect but in the process,a computer virus got into the intelligence-enhancing chip turning it evil.(Then it took control of other toys turning them evil and making them attack their human owners,complete with red eyes!)
I actually dressed up as the Classic Michael Myers at the Halloween haunted house at my high school(Which was an art high school in Downtown Long Beach,it looks different now because it`s totally renovated but it`s still around unlike my middle school!),and as I am a method actor I didn`t talk,I just breathed all the while I was wearing the mask!
Great review as always, shouldn't have watched this review until I actually watched this movie but I felt like as a loyal subscriber and friend I had to support you brother and watch the video, and make sure to give it a thumbs up. So as always keep up the great work, we all love you, and thank you for the great content as always, and of course for creating "Killer Flicks" that allows the social outcasts such as myself have a place to go and feel like part of a family. Thank you Lee and everyone who makes Killer Flicks the best group on all of Facebook!

What I do in this situation is I’ll play the video on mute & do something else so he gets my view, & I’ll go ahead & give it a thumbs up. Then come back & actually watch it after I’ve seen the movie. That way he gets your support when the video is uploaded & nothing gets spoiled for you.
I know it’s difficult to do sometimes. Wolfman’s video came out before I’d seen the movie & I was excited to hear his thoughts, but I couldn’t watch it yet. It was his non spoiler review but I wasn’t watching anything, not even trailers.
I don’t know how to describe my feelings for this movie. I didn’t hate it, but I definitely didn’t love it. It was an “o.k.”movie....a very loose ok. I went into the movie ready to enjoy a reboot. My biggest issue is that there were too many nods to the original that didn’t quite land for me. 1. Why did Chucky call himself Chucky? The movie is called Child’s Play, not Chucky. They changed good guy to buddi so why couldn’t his name have been something else? Him not knowing anything else, but knowing to call himself Chucky was bogus. 2. Why was Andy hearing impaired? There were maybe three times (I think) that Chucky communicated to Andy through the hearing aid. Other than that, it was a moot point. 3. Detective Mike was EXTREMELY underutilized. And was that a nod to the semi-romantic relationship of the OG characters at the end? 4. Detective Mike coming back to save them was also a miss, they should’ve done something else especially with how cool that sequence was. Those are some things that I wanted to point out. I wish that this movie would’ve stayed away from the nods and took more time separating itself from the original. The a.i. Aspect of this movie gave them an awesome opportunity to just go off on its own. As I mentioned, the movie is called Child’s Play, they should’ve just told a horrifying story about another killer toy. All new characters with subtle homages would’ve sold me. I think a lot of the people that loved this movie just loved that it didn’t totally suck and that it brought back the characters (mostly in name only). Also, the sequel should do what Halloween 3 did and give us a movie that’s just some crazy funhouse ride about toys and technology. I don’t want to see buddi Chucky aka ‘Bucky’ (which is what I’m going to call him from now on) anymore. With all that being said, again, I didn’t hate it, but I didn’t love it. On a higher note, I liked the comedy, I liked the idea of bucky learning to be evil, I loved Andy’s acting and I liked the musical theme (not the buddi song). Thanks for the review. I’m heading over to Cody’s page to leave this exact same comment. Lol. Also, which reviewers hated the movie? I’d like to hear their thoughts.
Just saw it yestorday i was looking to your review to hear it.
This Child's Play was a breathe of fresh air
Great review!
have to watch this spoilers review later :)
the mother was kinda touched
What if Andy has PTSD in the next movie
I’m giving this movie a score of 7/10. I didn’t enjoy it as much as I expected and it’s because this movie felt rushed and there wasn’t enough violence for me to enjoy this but I did enjoy Andy’s relationship with Chucky. And I also which the movie was longer so we can get to know the characters better.
I am firmly in the camp of people who don't give a shit about this franchise, and I enjoyed this movie. A lot of fun, and Mark Hammill did a great job.
Hey Lee another great example of a remake that took the same basic idea and put a great fresh spin on it was The Fly. The Fly remake instead of a teleportation accident with a Fly that resulted in body parts of man and fly getting swapped it changed it to a DNA fusion which gave it a whole new fresh interesting spin. The Fly and Child’s Play, 2 great examples of how to do a remake
Great example!
Great movie I will buy it on blu ray when it comes out
for Tupac!!
I thought that it was better than the Original, but it wasn’t as good as Child’s Play 2. I felt like a broken record saying that on killer flix today with all the Child’s Play posts lol
I watched this movie home alone on my computer and was scared to death of all my electronics afterward 😂
Also, I really enjoyed the movie.
If i had to point out something I didn’t like, Andy’s friends are pointless.
If you take them away and let Andy be completely alone outside of his mother and Chucky; I think it would have made for more of a connection to the doll.
The friends honestly take away from the tension.
@The Eternal Induction They had enough character development, particularly their unwitting role in Chucky`s further corruption in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 scene Lee mentioned in this video(The initial corruption of course being at the hands of the disgruntled Vietnamese employee who removed his safety protocols because he was sick of being treated like shit by his boss and decided if he was going down, he'd take the whole company with him even if it meant recklessly endangering an innocent family halfway across the world in the process). and banding together to take down Chucky Pennywise-style at the end(Even though we know that wasn`t the real Chucky that was killed and New Chucky A.I. nature means he can just transfer himself into another defective Kaslan doll which obviously is what happened!)
I hold no attachment to the original, but I have seen the first 3 movies. I thought Brad Doruf was a great Chucky. I am pleased that Mark Hamil went with the more sympathetic yet murderous route where Chucky was very sympathetic. I found myself going "I'll be your friend" during the movie... and it was sad that this broken Chucky doll seen as inferior gets attached to Andy.
The route they went was very very nice. I was scared that this would be a shitty remake but it's not even in that vein. It's different, and in it's own way, Mark probably knew he wouldn't be able to touch Brad's legendary performance, so he went in a different direction.
If anything... I am glad it was Mark Hamil... cause than we get the Joker.. .and he already is such a great voice actor. If it was a nobody, it probably wouldn't have been as good!
There were also times I saw myself in Andy (bad phrasing!!!) as he had difficulty making friends and seemed to like being by himself, something that I am very much still suffering through... The bad stuff that was happening was mainly "Be careful what you wish for" and "Youthful stupidity"
But that made it more enjoyable and darkly funny when Chucky replayed his words back to him. This kid was amazing! The kid stole my damn line from me at the beginning. I was literally thinking "That's not creepy at all" the same time he said it himself.
Is that Alice sweet Alice blu-Ray on your display in the background?
19sportcade85 Yes. Love that movie so much.
That's awesome, you should do a review on it. Vhs cover always freaked everyone out lol
I saw this movie 3 times in the theater and I loved it more and more each time and I really dig the robo cop reference toward the end such a brilliant fresh take on a beloved classic
I'm keeping my fingers crossed but hopefully we get a 4k 8-movie Chucky collection when this movie comes out
That would be badass!
I actually loved it but that wasn't chucky that got destroyed at the end that was one of the dolls he was controlling
2 of them. Lol
I LOVED THIS FREAKING MOVIE MAN!
I will make sure to come back after i've seen it
I'm a huge chucky fan and I loved this movie. It was fun yet scary and creepy. Everything chucky did either made me feel sad or creeped or smiled. Thats a feat I didnt think theyd be able to pull off.
This movie was just as good as childs play 2.
I preferred CP2, but this was really good.
This is for Tupac!
All I could think about was office space too lol
I think this is my favourite movie so far this year, and don't think it will be beaten for me. For example, I expected endgame to be good, however I was worried for child's play and I was really hoping this would be good. Kept the open mind going in to cinema and put aside original Chucky for duration of movie, and absolutely loved it as a result. Really hope it gets a sequel, it deserves one
I thought the way that chucky got his name in this movie was very lazy, in the original it was chucky lee ray inside the doll but in this movie the doll just randomly wants to be named chucky?
Great movie!! Kills were brutal. My favorite was the creepy pervert saw kill. This is for Tupac!!!
Well, tonight, saw Toy Story 4 and Child's Play. Toy Story 4 got a C from me, Child's Play got a B-. Shows which one I liked better, and I feel, if they 100% put it as it's own, dropped the Chucky, dropped the Child's Play, and just simply went 100% their own movie, easy A. It's that latching onto the franchise that hurt it I felt.
I watched it the other day. The first 30 mins I was not a fan. Once I separated myself from the orginal I really started to enjoy it. What I found especially creepy was how much Chucky cared for Andy. All tge stuff he did was because he wanted to help Andy.
When will the new ranking video come out
Funny thing is I recorded it but accidentally deleted it haha. So I have to rerecord. Soon hopefully.
Drumdums LoL 😂😂😂 can’t wait
Can't wait to own this one and rewatch it
How do you not mention the Jack Black doppelganger getting stabbed in the sack?? I felt that one in my gut lol
