Subservience

When Maggie ends up in hospital, in need of a newer operation, husband Nick purchases a new synthetic, Alice, to help around the house, Alice however takes her duties a little too far.

It doesn't surprise me that this film has been slated by critics and viewers alike, it's not great, it's definitely been done before, better, and somehow it just feels a little bit dated.

The standout element here, Megan Fox, she does a terrific job as Alice, she is first rate, she certainly looks the part, she's beautiful, but somehow artificial.

Unfortunately there are several flaws, why, oh why did Nick have to pick such a hot looking synthetic, like it was never going to end well, he'd have been better with the grandfather type, Alice's sexual fascination with Nick was baffling.

I honestly kept on questioning if Alice was a human plant or not. One question, if there was such an urgency to get the building finished, why were the workers locked away at night? It makes no sense.

5/10.

Largely a Ripoff (hate to be so unkind, but) of Hulu's "Humans". Good-looking female android is purchased by a father whose wife is in hospital. Predictably, the father has sex with the (exceptionally good-looking) Robot, blah blah. A decent flick on its own, but since it so closely parallels "Humans", I call it a Ripoff. BTW: "Humans" ran far deeper than this. "Humans" was a story about a nascent Android culture that had become Aware, and had to be dealt with by the human population...reminiscent of Isaac Asimov's "I, Robot". But if you like looking at Megan Fox and you're not familiar with Humans, go for it.

Megan Fox plays Aurora, an AI companion, and honestly, it's the most fitting role she's ever had. Her cold delivery and lack of emotional depth finally make sense in the context of the story. Instead of feeling out of place, her robotic vibe is exactly what the role needs, and she delivers (ironically) her most convincing performance yet.

The movie itself is a mix of solid sci-fi concepts and questionable execution. It's not groundbreaking, but it has some genuinely thought-provoking moments. The visual effects are impressive for what I assume wasn't a massive budget, and the pacing kept me interested.

That said, there's a glaring lack of character development for anyone who isn't Aurora. The human characters feel more robotic than the robot at times, which makes it hard to connect with the story.

Overall, it's worth a watch if you're into AI-themed movies or just want to see Megan Fox in a role that finally fits her style. It's not perfect, but it's entertaining in its own way. 6/10.

That's the movie. Megan Fox is an AI robot. She's actually quite believable as a robot. I don't think they could have casted a better beautiful android robot babe. So congrats.

Also, Michelle Zima is a good actor many folks don't know about. I thought she did well given the awful script and dialogue. People should know she is a good actor and has been doing it for a long time.

Ok, besides that...the movie is pretty bad. It's watchable but that's about it. The plot holes are insanely big, the plot has been done a bunch of times. Actually, there's a great Outer Limits episode from the 90s that's quite good "Valerie 23". It's actually better than this movie.

The flick is watchable, but don't expect much. Megan Fox kicks ass. All the haters can kick rocks....shes an icon. Just enjoy the simple little movie for what it is. An overdone AI psycho robot plot. Works to just sit back and relax. 5.2/10.

Nobody was likable in this movie,so was hard to care & root for any character survival.

The humans had less personality than any robots,which sums up the poor movie quality.

Many similar movies have been made with this topic,actually better even ones dating to years before special effects improved with technology.

The actors to acting,dialog all just fell really flat with clichés & blandness.

If movies keep getting made about artificial intelligence,why not go bigger & more unrealistic over potential futuristic possibilities? Instead we get a cookie cutter production.

Not something will recommend or watch,again.
