A brawny,inventive action romp that's as happy firing rockets at helicopters as it is contemplating the Cartesian model of mind-body dualism {nm}

Posted by: Facto on Mar 05, 08:39 in response to Facto's post Great reviews from two of Britain's leading daily...

Chappie up from 20 to 45 percent fresh at RT - Time Out 's Tom Huddleston counted twice, though. One of Hans Zimmer's very best soundtracks, Facto Mar 05, 01:34

You mean 45% rotten ;) {nm} numbersix_99 Mar 05, 02:52

At the time I looked at it it was 55% rotten, 45% fresh..... Facto Mar 05, 08:12

Movies are only rated as fresh on RT if they are 60% or above. {nm} RogerMore Mar 05, 09:06

Of course - I know. I was just trying to adapt to numbersix' logic. {nm} Facto Mar 05, 10:32

Despite that, it does not look 1% more interestng to me. {nm} tatoufan Mar 05, 06:02

Gladiator is Hans Zimmer's very best {nm} Strider907 Mar 05, 06:37

I personally believe nothing can top Interstellar. Didn't notice during Chappie that the soundtrack topped that one. Facto Mar 05, 08:13

Great reviews from two of Britain's leading daily newspapers. Guardian: "After the disappointment of Elysium, Blomkamp is back on his game." {nm} Facto Mar 05, 08:33

(From the Daily Telegraph - have to stop here for now, as evidently the computer I'm at doesn't allow for IMs... IE browser etc) Facto Mar 05, 08:39

You're missing a lot of things, charlie {nm} Facto Mar 05, 10:36

The Guardian review is puzzling. 3/5 yet they say it is great. Something is amiss. {nm} dwip18 Mar 05, 10:29

It's very enjoyable or lovable, but it's hard by any measure to rate it more than 3.5 out of 5 (if delivering a professional review). It Facto Mar 05, 10:36

No one goes to a movie just for the composer. The score is not even distinct in the trailer. {nm} Antibody Mar 05, 09:07
