Maid Droid Origins

The plot made no sense and was all over the place it felt like it was being written while shooting. Its unfortunate because the new actress for the droid is quite good at acting but wasted on a script like this.

Its like the director put no effort in and just inserted whatever weird fetish he felt like filming and based the plot around that. Its not even sexy I dont know what this film was going for.

They should have just made a sequel the first one, it was actually decent and had more plot with going forward.

The lighting and color grading is horrible and everything is overly dark.

The first movie was like bad in a good way but this is just bad bad, not worth watching very boring, probably the worst film from rich mallery.

This is another lower budget independent film which really did not need a sequel. It is very much just a sequel in name, as there are connections to the original. The original film wasn't great but it had a decent enough concept and a compelling performance by the lead Android. Now this follow up feels just as lower budget, maybe a little better but the story is not as intriguing and more confusing. The Android woman in this film isn't as good as the one served in the original but she's decent enough.

For the most part, everything is relatively bland and moves at a slow pace. There is somewhat of an unexpected twist near the end which makes things a little more interesting. It elevates the film slightly but overall it's not that great. The acting is also very amateurish and not convincing, both by the lead man and his wife.

After Eve, a beautiful android, murders one of her clients, she runs away from the evil Syndell corporation and hides out at the home of Timothy, the man who created her. As the two try to uncover what's wrong with Eve's programming, a romance develops, much to the dismay of Timothy's wife Belle, who refuses to be replaced without a fight.

Does anyone remember Tommy Wiseau's The Room? One of the most laughed at, ridiculed films of all time. If Tommy was to watch Maid Droid Origins, he'd think his movie was 10 times better. That's how bad this is. The second the film starts you can see that the film hasn't been shot properly, the colour is washed out. The score is preposterous, the acting is woefully bad, I've honestly seen better in a year 1 school nativity play. The dialogue is stilted and as if written by a year 2 student. They've not used a single light in an scene. There really isn't any saving grace for this film. Except, it's one of those that can be watched at frat parties and laughed at as it's so ludicrous. I can't believe anyone in the world thought this was OK to release. I gave it a 1 because I can't rate zero.

The one good note I want to leave is for the sound department (Alexander Givens-Baran), specially during the turntable scene, it was so good it didn't even seem like it was from this movie. And to Katie Kay (Eve), playing an android is not easy, specially without special effects.

As for the rest of the movie...

The plot was confusing and bad put together, a lot of scenes also didn't seem to add anything to the story or to the characters. I really don't get what was the idea Rich Mallery had for this. The dialogs were also unnatural while trying to give them some deeper meaning or some reflection but ended up just sounding weird.

They could also have putted more work in the editing, the sliding transitions look strange, but that could be a budget limitation.

I was maid for loving you baby ... no wait that is a song - no pun intended. Also I know that it is made and not maid. This right here is a sort of sequel to the Maid Droid movie - which I think not too many people have seen. Not that it matters. Literally - I was hoping for answers with a title like that - but not only do we get a different maid (character wise), we also do not get much about the history or the conception.

Well there are some scenes, that are meant to give us some sort of backstory and philosophical answers ... I am not sure anyone is satisfied with those. But after a ... I would almost say "lame" start and not better acting than the first one ... this kind of gets on its feet - powers up? Well you catch my drift ... this has less nudity than the first one, but it still will not be easy to watch if you already have a fear of AI ... just saying. The ending was kinda "nice"
