I didn't read the books but i had low expectations because of the rating and it surprised me in the best way! I enjoyed it alot, the idea is unique and very interesting, script is well written, cast is great, the story is exceptional. I cant understand why the rating is so low! Cant wait for the sequel!

I loved the Chaos Walking trilogy and I loved this film. There are definitely a lot of changes from the book/s but they still kept the fundamental elements that made me fall in love with Todd and Viola and the story/world. The ending was very different but considering that a sequel is off the table I was very satisfied with it. It was emotional, funny and very unique. Just an overall enjoyable experience and I left with a smile on my face, definitely one to see on the big screen if you can. Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley were the perfect actors to portray Todd and Viola and they brought so much genuine emotion to the characters, particularly Tom who was incredibly believable throughout. The actors who played Ben and Cillian were also a particular stand out for me as they made a big and important emotional impact with little screentime. My only complaint is that there is still so much more in the books to explore that I would love to see but given the circumstances I am very happy with what we got.

I'm flabbergasted by the extremely negative reviews for Chaos Walking. That you don't find it a masterpiece I can get but that you were not even remotely entertained by this movie remains a mystery to me. I was actually enjoying this quite refreshing story. It's fantasy and so I don't expect true or plausible stories. The acting wasn't bad at all and that from the entire cast so there again I don't know what's wrong with those eternal unsatisfied reviewers. If you're not too picky and like a fantasy story that has not been done before Chaos Walking is definitely worth a watch.

So nice to see we can colonize space and other planets but still cant evolve enuff to get rid of dumb redneck religious nut jobs.overall a boring movie no wonder it took so long to come out.hollywood yet again screws up a book with a bad adaptation.

If chaos walking is science fiction, then science fiction is dead, buried, six feet deep in a lead lined casket inside a unbreakable concrete vault, where it will rot until kingdom come... How do people get these convoluted, contrived, absurd, dumb ideas? OK, get the idea that everything must have a (heavy) dose of social commentary and political correctness, but not even those things can save this celluloid Titanic. It seems that Dystopian book authors compete to come up with the most unhinged, bizarre, unfeasible worlds and in the end they come-up with half-baked ideas. This is your typical Hollywood box-office bomb.

From the trailers this film looked pretty good, but upon watching it the film turned out to be pretty good in a much different way. At first it seems to be about a film where all of the women on the planet have died while the men have developed telepathic adbilities, however once you get to the middle of the film you suddenly realise that there is actually much more to the story than meets the eye. For instance, they suggest that the reason all of the women were killed was because of an alien race on the planet, but that sort of turns out not to be the case. The film is about this girl who survives this pod that lands on the planet and she has lost contact with the colony ship that is orbiting it. The suggestion is that if she doesn't contact them, then they will leave and go and look for another planet. Another thing about this ship is that it is a generation ship, meaning that she was born, and grew up, on the ship. This film, and in turn the book, deals with some quite important issues, and it is quite ironic that the film was released this week with all the stuff going on in the Australian Parliament. One thing that the film touches upon, as opposed to really exploring, is the idea of colonialism, and how the colonists respond to the inhabitants of this world. In fact, it is interesting how the protagonist, Todd, is convinced that the inhabitants are actually bad, and because he knows no difference, then he doesn't question it. In fact, the film is set initially in a small colonial town, and all he knows is what he is told. In fact, later in the film it is revealed that he thought that this town was the only town in existence on the planet, namely because nobody actually told him otherwise. Of course, there is also the fact that he has never seen a women, with the exception of Viola. I notice that a lot of people really didn't like this film, and in a way it sort of doesn't surprise me because, well, it is pretty confronting in parts, especially when it comes to the idea of gender relations. I don't want to say too much because it will give away the plot, however, I certainly did appreciate the issues that were explored. Okay, I sort of could see the twist, and it was fairly predictable, however, the concepts that this film explores are concepts that we really can't let go away.
