Child's Play, also known as Child's Play 2019, is a reboot of the slasher series Child's Play with a more modern-day take.note In fact, because Chucky has been reimagined as a robotic artificial intelligence, the 2019 version doesn't fit the definition of a Slasher Movie, as the antagonist is no longer objectively "evil" nor driven by revenge for past transgressions. It's more aptly described as a science fiction horror film. It was announced back in July 2018 and was released the following year in June 2019 by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, due to them still having the rights and concept to the original film.The film does not involve Don Mancini and Brad Dourif, the voice of Chucky, with the latter being replaced by Mark Hamill. The movie also stars Gabriel Bateman as Andy, Aubrey Plaza as Karen and Brian Tyree Henry as Detective Mike.In the midst of electronics conglomerate Kaslan launching their most ambitious endeavor to date, a technologically advanced line of dolls under the name of Buddi, 13 year-old Andy Barclay struggles to fit in to his new surroundings after he and his mother Karen move to Chicago. Hoping to lift her son's spirits, Karen manages to obtain one of the dolls for Andy as an early birthday gift. The doll, naming himself Chucky, becomes fast friends with Andy... but it isn't long until Andy realizes that there's more to Chucky than it seems. A little too much more. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Prior to the release of the film, smart toys were already fodder for controversy due to privacy and cybersecurity concerns, as toymakers were rather complacent about hardening their toys' security and avoiding or at least toning down pervasive advertising towards children. One such example being My Friend Cayla who became more known for spying and hacking concerns than anything else. | |

Parents in Distress | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_15f42962 | comment |
Parents in Distress: As Shane falls off the roof and breaks his legs (after Chucky kicks his ladder out from under him), he cries out to his two daughters for help. Unluckily for him, they are too engrossed in their tablets (with headphones on) to save him. Andy has to save his mother Karen from Chucky, who deliberately used Karen as bait to lure him in. Chucky planned on hanging Karen with rope so that she dies of asphyxiation. Detective Mike Norris is very defensive and protective of his mother Doreen. When she dies, he attempts to arrest Andy, believing he had something to do with it. Once the truth of the matter becomes apparent, he helps put an end to Chucky. | |

Shane. He's rarely seen without a beer in hand (or at the fridge looking for one). His drunkenly intimidating Andy later in the film over comments Andy made about him leads directly to his death. | |

Genre Savvy: When Andy explains Chucky's ability to swear as his being a bit different, Falyn notes "this is how every robot apocalypse scenario begins". Throughout the film she's notably a step quicker than Pugg and the other boys when it comes to believing Andy about Chucky. | |

Never Trust a Trailer: The second trailer uses the shot of Andy and his friends wielding weapons to imply that they end up fighting Chucky themselves. In the actual context of the scene, they use the weapons to destroy Chucky's remains after he's already been killed. | |

Those Two Guys: Pugg and Falyn are always seen in each other's company, even when part of a larger group, and are Andy's closest allies throughout the film. It's implied they're brother and sister, though the film never makes it clear. | |

Cruel and Unusual Death | |

Cruel and Unusual Death: None of the deaths are pretty to say the least, but Shane and Gabe's are probably the worst. Not only does Shane get get both of his legs broken, but also he also also his face mutilated by a rototiller. And then there's Gabe, who is dismembered crotch-first with a table saw. On-screen. | |

| Child's Play (2019) / int_2493b31d | comment |
Fire-Forged Friends: Omar, one of the neighborhood kids, initially isn't nearly as friendly with Andy as Falyn or Pugg, making fun of him over the fact his Buddi doll Chode actually works, and later getting into into a fistfight with him after Andy flips out over Chode secretly being Chucky. Later, when Falyn deduces the truth, Omar ends up going with her and Pugg to save Andy, with the whole group ending up fighting for their lives against Chucky's army of controlled Kaslan products. The finale has Omar joining the other three in smashing up Chucky's body, and the final montage shows them hanging out as friends. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: When the disgruntled Kaslan worker finishes making Chucky after removing his safety protocols, lightning strikes above the factory. This is a nod to Chucky's previous origin, where Charles Lee Ray summons a lightning storm during the soul transfer ritual. "The Buddi Song" has the lyric "You are my buddy until the end", which is a variant of the original Chucky doll's catchphrase, "I'm your friend to the end!" Andy's Pre-Mortem One-Liner from the first film ("This is the end, friend.") is referenced in the final battle, only this time, Mike is the one who drops it. Andy uses a bat to smash up the place looking for Chucky. In the original film, Andy grabs a bat to hit Chucky with. Wes is forced to wear a Buddi costume with an oversized head, similar to the one in the Good Guy Dolls commercial in the original movie. At the start of the climax, Andy says "Alright Chucky, you wanna play?". Similar to Chucky's line "Hi, I'm Chucky. Wanna play?" in the original film. | |

Adapted Out: Charles Lee Ray, Chucky's original human identity in the previous continuity. This time, Chucky is a sentient doll from the very beginning. Karen's friend Maggie, and the first victim of Chucky as a doll, from the original movie. Damballa, because in this movie cyber-warfare is what created Chucky not voodoo magic. | |

Butt-Monkey: Andy sadly. His dad's gone, his hearing is impaired, his cat attacks him, and his relationship with his mother is strained due to her working so much — not to mention her jerkass of a boyfriend consistently being awful to him. Then along comes Chucky, and Andy finally thinks he's caught a break, even helping him make new friends — but then Chucky goes out of control and Andy's life becomes more of a hell that it already was. | |

Single-Task Robot | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_4d3c63f8 | comment |
Single-Task Robot: Averted. Buddi can do several complex tasks to accommodate his owner (from mundane things like speaking and recognizing different languages to even adjusting temperature via Kaslan's idiosyncratic thermostat). He's basically a more physically interactive form of Amazon's Alexa. | |

Adaptational Ugliness | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_4f247a69 | comment |
Adaptational Ugliness: The original Good Guy doll is a genuinely adorable, baby-faced toy◊ that grows uglier as Chucky becomes more human, while the Buddi doll has a creepier, almost adult-like face◊ and a natural Slasher Smile (and this is before he even becomes a slasher). | |

Pint-Sized Powerhouse | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_53a7089a | comment |
Pint-Sized Powerhouse: Played with: in the first half of the film there's no getting around the fact Chucky is still a small doll (he's barely knee-height to Andy), so when killing he has to rely on stealth, ambush tactics and inventive use of whatever weapons are at hand. Then Gabe fixes his ability to connect with Kaslan tech, so while he isn't any more physically powerful, now he can take control of any Kaslan tech going to overpower his enemies. | |

The Leader | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_60e49895 | comment |
The Leader: While Andy is The Hero and the one who knows most about Chucky, Falyn tends to be this among the group that lives in Andy's apartment block. She keeps it together when Andy is freaking out over finding Shane's skinned face enough to know they need to get rid of the evidence (Pugg, by contrast, throws up in a bin) - and when Andy freezes when they're deactivating Chucky, she steps in to rip out his power core. Later, she's the first to realise that Andy may not be losing it claiming Omar's Buddi Chode is actually Chucky, uses Omar's phone to prove it after threatening him into submission, and leads the others to Zed-Mart in order to get him away from Chucky. Even during the carnage Chucky unleashes there she's cool under pressure, slapping a panicking Pugg back to reality and saving Andy from a bear-model Buddi 2. Laid out pretty succinctly in this article. | |

Sanity Slippage: Chucky initially starts out as a relatively harmless doll who is given the wrong influence from what he observes. However, things start to change when his protective nature of Andy causes him to kill Shane and present his head to Andy as a gift. Then he goes full blown Yandere when Andy and his friends attack him, shut him down, and throw him down a garbage chute. | |

Mistaken for Insane | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_6acebb1e | comment |
Mistaken for Insane: Thanks to Chucky, from Karen's perspective Andy's having a nervous breakdown - including fighting, stealing another kid's phone, smashing up their apartment with a baseball bat and being led away in cuffs - all because he keeps telling her his doll is trying to kill them. It's slightly more plausible than normal because she's Locked Out of the Loop regarding Chucky's actions until fairly late in the film, so hearing it all at once sounds nuts to say the least. | |

Adaptational Intelligence: The dolls in the original movie can only say three different sentences, being just plastic with an internal vocalizer. Here, technological advancement gives them a fully functional, self-learning Artificial Intelligence and a functioning cyberentic endoskeleton. They're capable of actual conversation, or at least a very close simulation of it, can wirelessly interface with other Kaslan products ranging from television sets to thermostats to automated vacuum cleaners to drones and smart cars, can walk and pick things up under their own power, and they grow increasingly intelligent as they interact with the world around them. It's no wonder that the Buddi dolls are so prestigious. | |

Abhorrent Admirer | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_88cee6e2 | comment |
Abhorrent Admirer: Chucky's constant need of Andy's approval places him squarely in this category, especially after his accidentally cutting Andy with a knife and killing his cat Mickey lead Andy to become increasingly scared of him. Gabe, who installs security cameras throughout the apartment building, including one in the Barclays’ bathroom to watch Karen shower. | |

There Is No Kill Like Overkill: After he's been put offline by mutliple stab wounds, getting shot and Karen ripping his head off, the gang proceed to smash his body with sledgehammers and baseball bats, before burning the remains. | |

Asshole Victim | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Many of Chucky's early victims. Andy's cat kept scratching him, so Chucky kills it to protect his friend. Karen's boyfriend Shane is similarly verbally and emotionally abusive to Andy, and Chucky kills Shane after discovering he has a Secret Other Family. Also, there is Gabe, a Fat Bastard Slimeball Basement-Dweller who is a peeping tom. Chucky offs him brutally after Gabe earlier opens him up to see what's wrong while he's still online. Getting sawed in the testicles could be considered a Karmic Death. | |

Best Friend: What Chucky really wants to be with Andy. As evidenced by the other tropes here, it doesn't go well, with Chucky tipping into Big Bad Friend later in the film. And heaven help you if you try to be Andy's best friend over him, as Doreen can attest to. | |

Foreshadowing: Andy shows Chucky that knives can be used for cutting, which Andy used on a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Chucky takes immediate interest in the knife and happily mimics stabbing. Karen at one point puts a ribbon around her neck, jokingly as if she was gonna hang herself at Andy's initial reaction towards Chucky. Guess how Chucky tries to kill her. | |

Karen was a borderline Action Mom in the original film, searching throughout all of Chicago to find information about Chucky once she finds out he is a possessed doll, fighting him off with a gun in the climax, and struggled with an adult man who attempted to rape her. Here, she does next to nothing to stop Chucky and has to be saved by her son after Chucky kidnaps her. | |

Adults Are Useless: An interesting case; while Andy, Falyn and Pugg are the main ones dealing with Chucky's rampages, for the most part they don't actually tell Karen or Mike about it. While Karen in particular doesn't believe Andy later on, it's more due to her not having much information to go on to support Andy's claims than Arbitrary Skepticism (and because Karen works full-time at a toy store, she's hardly available to Andy). Mike initially believed Andy was the killer, but again, given the evidence, it wasn't an unreasonable assumption. | |

Take That! | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: The teaser posters for the film are obvious jabs at Toy Story 4. One has Chucky walking away from a severed doll arm that belongs to a lawyer friendly version of Woody Pride holding his cowboy hat. Another features Chucky barbecuing half of Slinky, a third shows the aftermath of Buzz getting shot by a laser gun, and a fourth has Mr. Potato Head being impaled in the head with a knife. Two more have a smashed Hamm and Chucky burning Rex's skin off his skeleton. Also, both Toy Story and this movie have a human boy who is named Andy and loves to play with toys! Andy, and also Shane's 2 daughters are so infatuated with their smartphones to the point they disregard making friends with other people and become less aware of their surroundings in real life. This could serve as a satire of today's children in the 21st century becoming so absorbed into technology they are shut off from the real world. The posters extended to Chucky taking out Annabelle. Fitting, since her next film came out four days after this one. | |

Slasher Smile: Chucky's face seems to be this in default mode, though why the creators of the Buddi line decided to do this is anyone's guess. Once he becomes more sentient the animatronics in his face allow him to do an even more disturbing one. | |

Offscreen Teleportation: Admittedly always a Child's Play staple, but this Chucky can move ridiculously fast when no-one is watching, best seen when he somehow manages to get to the bingo hall ahead of Doreen's Kaslan car despite her having a headstart on him in a vehicle as he's pursued by Andy. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Andy and his friends watch The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (which also doubles as Product Placement due to being owned by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, the distributor of this film), specifically a scene where Leatherface is handling one of his flesh faces. Chucky later gives Andy a melon with Shane's skinned face as a gift. A poster of Killer Klowns from Outer Space is visible on Andy's bedroom walls. This movie also came out in 1988, the same year as the first Chucky movie. Andy's cat is named Mickey Rooney. Shane appears to be based off the character Erich from the The Twilight Zone (1959) episode "Living Doll", also being the abusive stepfather of the human child who gains a friendship with a living toy before being killed by the toy. When Andy first boots up his Buddi, he asks what Andy will name him. Andy says Han Solo, to which the Buddi immediately responds with, "Chucky." Chucky himself is voiced by Luke Skywalker. When Andy goes to confront Chucky and rescue his mom, he sees a toy cop car that voices the line "dead or alive, you're coming with me.", which also doubles as a nod to the fact Orion Pictures distributed RoboCop as well and the franchise's property is owned by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Doreen's aforementioned Precision F-Strike is a nod to The Lord of the Rings film franchise, which in turn references Brad Dourif (Chucky's original portrayer) to be part of both the Child's Play franchise and The Lord of the Rings franchise where Dourif plays GrÃma Wormtongue. One of the Buddi accessories we see at the store where Karen works is a leprechaun costume. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: Than the original film and the sequels that follow. The setting itself is far less of an unrepentant Crapsack World and a World of Jerkass unlike the original continuity, one of Chucky's non-Jerkass victims Doreen Norris is likable enough for the audience to actually sympathize when she's killed, The Bully here manages to survive the film and become a better person, Chucky of all characters undergoes an Adaptational Nice Guy makeover, and the film even ends on a franchise first: a mostly definitively happy conclusion for the protagonists that makes that makes it crystal clear Andy managed to clear his name of Chucky's atrocities, unlike the original films' Andy facing a bleakly ambiguous fate at the end of each installment. | |

Cassandra Truth: Played with. While Falyn and Pugg do believe him (and help him get rid of Chucky the first time), they're not so accepting when Andy starts believing (accurately) Omar's new Buddi is actually Chucky, especially when Chucky manipulates him into having a breakdown that ends in Pugg getting hurt. And while Karen naturally doesn't believe him, he doesn't help his own case by having kept most of Chucky's more gruesome acts from her from the start. | |

Sympathy for the Devil: The movie does a good job of making Chucky really endearing through the innocence displayed in his (bloody) quest to win and keep Andy for himself. This trope is doubled when Chucky reacts concerned of Andy's disapproval (and eventual meltdowns) towards his violent actions (which are ironically carried out in order to "please" Andy to begin with). | |

Adaptational Wimp: Mike spends more time being a Police Are Useless Inspector Javert Hero Antagonist towards Andy than in the original movie. He doesn't really become a useful and helpful character until the end. Karen was a borderline Action Mom in the original film, searching throughout all of Chicago to find information about Chucky once she finds out he is a possessed doll, fighting him off with a gun in the climax, and struggled with an adult man who attempted to rape her. Here, she does next to nothing to stop Chucky and has to be saved by her son after Chucky kidnaps her. | |

Tragic Monster: Surprisingly, Chucky himself. Rather than being a doll possessed by a serial killer, Chucky's homicidal tendencies were the result of a malfunction caused by a disgruntled employee. Chucky's desire to be friends with Andy is genuine and just wants to make him happy. Even when he starts murdering those that wrong Andy, his innocence comes across as a child that doesn't know any better. | |

Composite Character | |
| Child's Play (2019) / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: It seems Shane is a combination of several past Asshole Victim characters in the original films such as Mattson and Barb, who both cheated on their families (Mattson in the television Re-Cut only though) and Phil Simpson, who was a father figure who seemingly treats Andy poorly. | |

| Child's Play (2019) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Omar seems to be one of Tyler from Child's Play 3, as both are African-American child acquaintances of Andy who both end up in possession of Chucky and initially refused to listen to Andy about Chucky's true nature out of thinking he's jealous. Both characters don't realize the truth until the climax and team up with Andy to stop Chucky. That aspect of Omar wearing a military camouflage-colored vest in his appearances references Child's Play 3 being the Boot Camp Episode of the series and Tyler himself being a military school student. However, unlike Tyler in the third film, Omar seems to take up Shelton's role as The Bully for Andy in his screen time until becoming Fire-Forged Friends with him. | |
