Child's Play's reviews
Media reviews
New York Post
This re-imagining of Chucky?s origins manages to be both crazier and more level-headed than the original, in which the doll strolled around Chicago talking like a gangster from 'Guys and Dolls'.
The Guardian
A razor-sharp and exquisitely gruesome toy story. The knife-wielding Chucky doll is updated for the digital era in a horror reboot that shrewdly skewers western consumerism.
Roger Ebert
This Child?s Play is nastier, more playful, and just as good if not better than the original film.
The Telegraph
For those of us old enough to have been terrorised the first time round, it delivers a nasty-but-nice-enough childhood flashback.
Entertainment Weekly
By giving Chucky a reason to kill, the new movie?s arc can?t help but dilute his menace a bit with more laughs than scares.
Variety
This is the new normal for horror movies: the screenplays have to seem hipper than the premise they represent, which puts 'Child?s Play' in the weird position of pointing out and poking fun at all the ways it fails to make sense.
New York Times
In trying to build a smarter Chucky, the filmmakers have assembled something unfathomably dumb.
