I couldn't finish watching it...

Firstly, I didn't care for the overall story. The mental hospital setting seemed cheaply designed and not realistic. And secondly, the animatronics used for Chucky in this film are astoundingly terrible. After watching the original films, there's no way I could take this Chucky seriously. Though, I might've continued watching it if Alex Vincent's character had a longer screentime. But his character wasn't in the film for long. For the most part, it was boring and unsatisfying.

I am in the minority that couldn't take the first Chucky seriously to begin with. Never found him scary at all. Goofy like Gomer Pyle trying to be tough or at best Raggedy Andy. So I thought I would give it another try with a new Chucky.

I always enjoyed Chucky for being entertaining, not scary.

That makes complete sense. I am actually re-watching the original now while looking at it in a new light.
