Subservience

I don't know why this movie is getting torn apart by both critics and audiences. There's no way to consider this anywhere near a 1 or 10, so I suspect that people are being disingenuous in their reviews. Sure, it's nothing new and it's not going to be winning any awards, but it's enjoyable and done fairly well. Megan Fox isn't the best actress, but she can play a robot really well. Surprise, surprise. Madeline Zima does well, which isn't surprising. One of my only real gripes is the main character, who's constantly awful. He makes so many terrible decisions, and is just all-around insufferable. It's also annoying how the construction workers are portrayed. It's like how people in Hollywood must think of blue-collar workers. They also made Monty too over-the-top. He's just this emotional animal that has this intense, irrational hatred for new things, and it's just a bit much.

People are drawing parallels between this and M3GAN. They share the same basic premise, but that's about it. And M3GAN was far from the first to do it, so it really doesn't make sense to compare the two. Honestly, this is actually a little better than M3GAN anyways. The entire plot of M3GAN was dependent on people doing inexplicably stupid things. There's very little of that in this movie.
