lolz!!!!!
Re: Pulling a gun on a colleague…..
I know it's not a documentary and based on facts but that part really annoyed me. I can't imagine that in any cooperation that would have not be an HR incident and the guy would have not been canned straight away.

Are you familiar with African business practices? Not saying this would fly. . .completely, but they get away with some "F"-ed up stuff there. The scene could be a bit of whacked out commentary on that sort of thing.
I once worked for a company that built movie theaters. Our first African job was a nightmare. The foreman told us that any laborer who gave us trouble would be killed to make an example. I'm not even kidding. Aside from a good laugh, I just chalked up that Vincent, Deon, gun incident to "TIA"("This Is Africa").

This is just one of the millions of plotholes in this movie. The movie would've ended right there, because it would get him in prison.
This was a Swiss-cheese of a movie in terms of plotholes. NOTHING makes sense, if you stop and think about it for a second. Only the first hour was bearable
Only thing good about this movie was the quality of Chappie CGI, and even then not in all scenes.

Oscar Pistorius did stuff like this all the time in restaurants and stuff in South Africa. So it is plausible.

LOL I know it was over the top. Did u c the scene in TLAWSZ? Bill Murray is badass.
Re: Pulling a gun on a colleague…..
That gun pulling and threatening crap would simply have not been tolerated.
Too much liability for the company.

But everyone would be waiting for someone else to take care of it. That was the underlying problem with the robot cops, like when the officer had to yell to get the human cops out of their chairs. I think the message was that we'd quickly reach a point where the only crime that got prosecuted was the anti-gang style crime that the robots handled.

Bureaucracy at its finest! Yes, even in corporations.

T.I.A. my friend lol
Re: Pulling a gun on a colleague…..
Of course it is not "okay." But as another cited, it is depicted in another country (other than "everyone") and where maybe in other countries would result in the immediate canning of the offender.
Vincent pulled a gun on Deon in front of a packed office, and this is okay with everyone?? Empty gun or not, this is not the kind of joke that can be laughed off, and someone from personel would have sent him on suspention, especially when his project was no longer in priority to the company.
However, given that this is fiction and this fictional business was making gazillions of bucks for the corporation, and Vincent was highly regarded in the company, and a developer who possessed that financial prospect who really can tell? Or perhaps the mission statement may suggest: that joking around with a lethal weapon in some circumstances may be acceptable?
Again, it's not okay, but in art imitating life, I presume is does, or has happened.
