M3GAN 2.0

"A competent but cumbersome overelaboration of the M3GAN concept."

"...something that limps, with exaggerated metal squeaks, into the future."

"A convoluted mishmash with shades of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Mission: Impossible and the Austin Powers franchise."

"Allison Williams’ robo-franchise trades splatter for spycraft in this entertaining sequel."

"A pretty bizarre conflagration of tones and ideas."

"Strangely, the killer robot girl who shimmied and stabbed her way into our hearts is defanged and watered down in her return."

"This uproarious (if not especially scary) sequel has the measure of the task at hand’s silliness..."

"M3GAN’s greatest asset was never her heart, but her lack of one. It’s somewhat baffling, then, that she is easily the most likable character in a lineup of algorithmically hateable humans."

"The overbaked, underwhelming, narratively restless movie itself is 0.0 percent watchable."

"Didn’t have to be so inevitably too much."

"More tonally discordant than the first film."

"A riot of timely tech paranoia, with almost no horror but a ton of successful comedy."

"So many moments where the appeal of a sil­li­er fol­low-up feel clear­er."

"Outrageous and absurd horror setups."

"Oh no. The sequel to M3GAN is absolutely T3RRIBL3."

"An upgrade from horror to sci-fi action."
