M3gan

After watching the first trailer, I was excited to watch the movie and after hearing positive reviews my expectations rose. After watching the movie, it felt like I didn't see anything new. It was just same robot becoming enemy due to malfunction. The horror or thrilling elements were missing from the story. One thing I liked about the story was they tried to be realistic but we have seen this type of story millions of times. I don't know what will they do with the sequel. Maybe, make it a franchise like Child's Play. Who knows?

Overall, it was a normal movie which I think you can give a try.

A brilliant toy company roboticist uses artificial intelligence to develop M3GAN, a life-like doll programmed to emotionally bond with her newly orphaned niece. But when the doll's programming works too well, she becomes overprotective of her new friend with terrifying results.

This felt super cool and fresh. It carried the comedy without feeling too funny. It had the horror and the spookiness without making it too gory and disturbing for some watchers. This will probably be one of my fav thrillers of the year! Blumhouse did a amazing job making this movie scary but not scary enough for a R rating. It landed a PG-13 Rating. Overall super exciting and I totally would recommend this film!

M3gan (M3gan), is a horror and science fiction film about a robot with artificial intelligence, a robotics engineer named Gemma who specializes in robotic toys, builds what promises to be the most innovative toy that will put the company ahead where she works, M3gan is a lifelike doll programmed to be a child's best companion and parent's best ally with all the technological advances she has, but doing so will have unimaginable consequences.

The tape begins with a commercial for toys that look like furby and fonzo from the simpsons, this toy is the most coveted of children so far, then we go to a family driving in the middle of a snow storm who have an accident, they are relatives of Gemma, consequently Gemma suddenly becomes the caretaker for her 8-year-old niece, Cady, Gemma has intense pressure at work, so she decides to pair her M3GAN prototype with Cady in an attempt to solve both problems, she will be your new best friend, for better or worse.

It is interesting how they present us with the scoop of their history, we are increasingly relying on technology, parents leave the education of their children to technological means since they prioritize their activities, as is the case of Gemma who has intense pressure on the work, on the tape M3gan listens, watches and learns as she becomes a friend, teacher, playmate and protector, to Cady the girl she's bonded to and we're not too far from M3gan even existing, which is unsettling.

Here we have a combination of concepts such as Terminator and Chucky and it is inevitable to think about those tapes, M3gan was asked to take care of Cady physically and emotionally, but how far will he go so that no one ever hurts Cady? On the other hand, the The story is predictable almost from the beginning, when Gemma shows Cady one of her university projects we will practically know how the movie will end, we also have time jumps that are taken for granted, without saying if days, weeks or months have passed.

In short, M3gan is the new chucky for centennials, with recycled concepts for the new generations, visually I must say that they did a very good job, with the puppets and the doubles of M3gan, I think it manages to be an entertaining movie that would even be enjoyed to see more in home, they also leave an ending that can lead to a second movie or why not, a new franchise of horror dolls.

Rating: 7.5.

Solid and, at times, actually entertaining. Like other reviewers have mentioned, this strikes me as another version of the 2019 Childs Play; a fun, doesn't-take-itself too-seriously movie. Nonetheless, it added its own spin to the horror/comedy genre with its intentional and unintentional comedy.

I went into M3GAN with little to no expectation given the only marketing material I could remember was the dance scene. I found that the film accomplished the message it set out on. Parents suck at raising children and having no parental figure could be deadly because they will get attached to anything that shows them affection.

As far as the quality of the film, there wasn't really anything surprising or new I could think of. Most of the elements were very predictable from the beginning. That's not always a bad thing because most people like the predictability and knowing where a film is headed.

Overall, not bad for an early January released PG-13 horror movie.

It seems especially in the horror genre nearly everything lately is regurgitated and advertised as something new. Blumhouse does this more than anyone lately and yet still manages to rake in profits from mostly generation z unfamiliar with the old classic horror films that came long before. The glaring similarities and material borrowing comes from basically every Chucky film, though it's presented in a way that's more appetizing to the newer tik tok gen z crowd. Not saying the film isn't still executed solidly or isn't effective. It just feels like such an obvious rewrapping of an old classic.

The film itself has a solid enough story and decently intriguing visuals to keep it interesting. The acting is subpar at times but the shock value makes up for it. The true issues lay in the blatant lack of originality toward the overall product. Slight futuristic advancements in plot points and cgi can only differentiate from the old so much when something feels so familiar.
