20 Worst Movie Performances Of The Decade

Some performances are so bad they sink an entire film and this happened with Chappie. Chappie was flawed but had some good ideas and if director Neill Blomkamp hadn't chosen to cast Ninja and Yolandi, members of the South African hip-hop group Die Antwoord, as meta-fictional versions of themselves, Chappie might've been OK.

Both Ninja and Yolandi are migraine-inducingly tiresome here and neither of them can act at all. Admittedly the terrible writing they were given (in Chappie, they are gangsters when they're not touring) didn't help, but even if the screenplay had been written by someone like Quentin Tarantino or Aaron Sorkin the chances are they still would've been utterly insufferable.

There two were virtually absent from Chappie's marketing, so it was no doubt a horrible shock for viewers to find out that the movie would largely be about these enormously irritating characters instead of the AI themes the trailer's promised.

Apparently, Ninja was even worse off-screen than on-screen. He relentless harassed and mistreated the film's cast and crew (especially female members), he sent pictures of himself receiving a blowjob to at least two women and Blomkamp later said he never wanted to be in the same room as Ninja again.
