Mother/Android

The acting is on point, Chloë Grace Moretz is such a great actress. There is also action in it this makes it a little bit more exciting to watch further even though at times the movie is slow. There is a clear beginning end goal, so that is why you want to see this movie until the end. Overall score 6.5/10. Hoping for a sequel.

So Chloe did this film called Shadow in the Cloud a year before this one. It features a woman with a small baby, trying to survive things that are trying to kill her in a misogynistic world while ineffectually protected by a weak man. In the end she rises to the occasion, saving her child. This film is basically the same, only seemingly on a much smaller budget and really falling flat. Instead of gremlins in a plane it's androids in a forest. Instead of manly but stupid flyboys she gets manly but stupid army guys. Similarities aside, I liked Shadow in the Cloud, yet I was completely unimpressed and bored with this film. And what the hell is that title? Couldn't they think of something better?

Bottom line: the movie feels amateurish and under budget, like a student film. The effects are few and far between, while the story is full of holes and completely uninspiring.

I don't think this movie was as bad as other reviewers said, but definitely nothing new and clearly there was a lack of thought about some things that could have been much better. I think it was saved by chloe's acting but the basic idea of human-like robots that turn against their masters and murder is unsophisticated in itself, and doesn't work as a story the way it did in the 50s- before there had been time for anyone to think it through. Reminds me of an Orson Welles movie... innovative at the time but silly today.

Okay yes, this is a story setting that has been used time and time again. We've seen the apocalypse/survival thing in so many movies and tv shows over the years. BUT, that being said, I thought this was a pretty good movie. Was it a 10/10? No, I wouldn't say that. It wasn't even close to being on the same level of say, A Quiet Place. But I thought it was good. I would describe it as like, A Quiet Place's cousin that lives out of state or something. I thought everyone's acting was solid, the storyline had some loopholes but nothing that made me want to completely stop watching. I enjoyed it! Watch for yourself and give it a chance, you might be pleasantly surprised!

She's a fantastic actress yet it's bomb after bomb after bomb for her and she's the only good thing in them.

Chloe, please fire your agent and come back to us with some quality films, we know you're a talented actress and we all love to watch you do your work, but this is straining it for us.
