    M3GAN is a fun mix of sci-fi, horror, and satire, playing on our growing fascination (and fear) of AI. The plot is simple but effective, following a tech-driven story that doesn’t waste much time on deep explanations. Instead, it throws us straight into the chaos of a hyper-intelligent AI doll bonding with a child in ways that quickly spiral out of control. While the movie touches on interesting themes about technology and parenting, it doesn't go too deep into the mechanics of M3GAN’s creation, which leaves some questions unanswered. That being said, it still delivers an engaging and entertaining ride. The directing keeps things moving at a steady pace, balancing horror and humor well. The cinematography is solid, with some nice shots that make M3GAN feel eerily lifelike. The use of lighting and framing helps create an unsettling atmosphere, especially when the doll is in focus. The acting is a mixed bag, while the young girl and the actress behind M3GAN absolutely carry the film, some of the supporting performances feel flat. There are moments where certain characters feel like they’re reading off a script rather than delivering natural dialogue, which can take you out of the moment. The script is decent, with some sharp moments of humor and tension, but it could have used a bit more depth in certain areas, especially around M3GAN’s development and motivations. The sound design and score work well in building suspense, adding to the film’s creepy but playful tone. Overall, M3GAN is a fun watch, especially if you enjoy AI-themed horror with a touch of dark humor. It may not be groundbreaking, but it knows exactly what it is and plays to its strengths.

    M3GAN is a light, entertaining film that doesn’t take itself too seriously. It delivers a simple story with some predictable scares and an eerie performance from the doll herself. It’s not groundbreaking, but it’s fun if you’re looking for a no-stress, casual watch. I wouldn’t strongly recommend it, but it’s far from a bad choice for a mindless movie night.

    'M3GAN' works for one reason and one reason only: the robot. I could honestly do without the entirety of the scenes that are predominantly about the adults, but the Model 3 Generative Android is, surprisingly, highly entertaining to watch. The look is good, the effects are very convincing and, unexpectedly, the dialogue really adds to the character; it is lively and amusing, which can't always be said in this genre. They could've perhaps made the robot more unsettling, though it is minorly creepy once or twice. Allison Williams, despite my lack of overt interest in the older folk, is solid in a prominent role. She looks like Amanda Peet to me in this, I even had to check it wasn't Peet; even though I knew the years/ages totally didn't work. Violet McGraw is decent. Less said about Ronny Chieng, the better. The only thing I knew about this before watching was the dance, which isn't featured as much as I was anticipating based on how much I saw it referenced when the film came out. On similar-ish note, I enjoyed the uses of "Titanium" and "Toy Soldiers" in this. As a big fan of the other, I second any calls for a crossover with 'Chucky'... Don Mancini's one, obviously.

    Comedy horror that doesn't work. Not creepy but stupid.

    Too hyped for what it was. In the end of the day, while we haven't see it with a robot, AI, fancy android, we have seen the same story a lot of times with dolls, teddy bears or other children's "friends". An ok watch, but definitely not my type.

    It's not a bad movie, but I am not for Robot or A.I. because of exactly what happens: taking the parenting job away and that connection. Hate to say it, but you have to go through trauma or some type of sadness. that life, you can't just push things away, which makes things much worse. Megan was creepy as hell, and Shawty really took out the dog-like, wtf NOOOO, you didn't have to do that, the dog attacked her because she passed, which was understandable. I don't know if I will watch the second one, but I guess we will see once the time comes.

    Boring, boring, boring. There are some short, good scenes but overall, the movie is slow, dull, and quite flat. The characters are poorly written and there's no character one likes at all. The concept is good, but they didn't quite pull it off.

    Hardly a likeable character in the entire movie. Trash that will no doubt spawn multiple sequels.
