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.

I agree with some reviewers that there are folks out there who just are overly critical. The movie is "OK"... it's not something I would watch again, and is fairly predictable but there are a couple of tweaks here and there that build suspense.

Some folks seem thrilled that Megan Fox is the star and others like myself are 'meh' about her. This is a good role for her, a robot. ;-)

Without giving anything away, the flick does delve ever so slightly into the whole question of automation taking jobs away from people.

Overall, better than watching paint dry and I've wasted time watching a lot worse than this. If you like sci-fi as I do, then you could do worse.

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.

The movie's already really bad, as you can read in the other reviews, but the main character actor Michelle Morone turns it into a total train wreck. This is honestly the worst acting I've seen in movies since years. They could have taken any dude from the street, and he would have performed better.

His emotions are just always wrong or all over the place. The moment he see's the sexy robot for the first time, for example, his face just stays blank, nothing happens, absolutely nothing. They must have taken a shot from the scene where he waits for his next line of dialogue. Wooden doesn't even describe his style of acting, it's worse. To be fair, the actress who plays his wife isn't much better. Or his collegue at work, who is not an actor, he's an over actor. These actors make you prefer robots over humans.

Don't even get me started on the script of this train wreck. Doesn't make any sense.
