With the world redefining what artificial intelligence means on a daily basis, we need an alternative version of the future like M3GAN 2.0. With great peril also comes great laughter and this insight to future events suggests we will be just fine. Secretive agencies, greedy industrialists and empty ideologists would never let us be ploughed asunder, right?
We can however rely on a kung fu fighting robot to save the day and have Director/writer Gerard Johnstone and his cohorts throw absolutely everything in the pot in an attempt to entertain us. Sensory overload or the proper proportion of mayhem for the ADD generation? Only you can decide.
The storyline as convoluted as it is revolves around the original M3GAN robot not really being completely destroyed and her CPU or central processing unit still existing in one form or another. From this point forward none of it really makes any sense, so you are forced to just go along with this occasionally bumpy ride.
When all is said and done and the crazy coagulates in your grey matter, you are left with quite a few what the f moments. Getting there has its fun moments but the lasting impression is that the possible evil that exists in movie madmen in regards to world domination has resulted in more hilarity than hazard.
