Trivia

The film features narrative material relating to Andy's father and Karen's husband, details that were originally omitted from the original 1988 film, which included a deleted scene where Andy Barclay (Played by Alex Vincent) shows a framed picture of his father to Chucky, stating he died in a car crash.

Goofs

When Andy's mother's boyfriend is wrapped in the Christmas lights and being dragged into the garden tiller, the lights are still on. The tiller would have chewed up the cord from both ends causing the lights to go out immediately, but it was a funny premise anyway. See more »

Disjointed and lame dialogue and plots points, censored violence, and an untimely remake.
14 July 2019 | by SvenstadtSee all my reviews

This movie is just a mess. The principal from The Breakfast Club is the CEO of the company that makes the 'Buddi' dolls. This is a poor attempt to update an 80's hit, where old-style dolls are outfitted with Wifi, and can control lights and TV's. The problem is that it shows people going to retail toy stores, which, as of 2019, are almost non-existent anymore! It has all the family and friendship cliches that are typical of modern movies. The violence often gets toned down, by changing camera angles so you can't see most of the violence. When you do see it, it is either too dark to make out, or happens too fast to get more than a brief blip of it. The children are like the ones in 'It': very annoying and acting unlike real kids would talk or act. The friendships seem forced at times, for the sake of moving the story along.
