Child's Play Review: 6 Ups & 3 Downs

2. It's Brutally, Hilariously Violent

Though the 90-minute movie takes a little longer than it probably should getting to the grisly kills, they prove absolutely worth the wait.

Almost every kill in the movie is both wonderfully bloody and grimly funny, with Chucky typically taking control of convenient modern tech and using it against the poor, poor humans in inventively gnarly fashion.

This proves especially entertaining in the film's finale, where Chucky effectively hijacks an entire store filled with smart toys, resulting in numerous memorable deaths that are at least as hilarious as they are bloody.

There definitely could've been a few extra kills thrown into the first half of the movie to spice things up a bit, but once it gets going, it delivers the giddy gore fans of the series were anticipating.
