🚨BREAKING NEWS FROM THE UNCANNY VALLEY: M3GAN is back, buffer than ever, and apparently has been bench-pressing trauma and sarcasm since the last movie. But guess what? Her new nemesis, Amelia, is basically if Siri took a pole-dancing class and then tried to delete humanity. So yeah, things are real.
The highly anticipated (and possibly possessed?) M3GAN 2.0 hits theaters June 27, and early reviews are in—and y’all, the critics are more divided than your group chat during Zodiac season.
Let’s recap the chaos:
It’s been two years since Gemma (aka Mommy of Mayhem, played by Allison Williams) built M3GAN, and now some tech bro stole the code and created Amelia, a new A.I. hottie with a superiority complex and probably a burner Twitter account. Amelia goes rogue, threatens humanity, and Gemma’s like “Welp… guess I’m reanimating my murder doll with a Wi-Fi upgrade.”
So M3GAN gets new firmware, a new attitude, and maybe a few new TikTok dances?? But can she slay (literally and fashionably) enough to stop Amelia?
Now here’s what the critics are screaming into the void:
🧟♀️ The Daily Beast is already throwing salt like it’s seasoning a rotisserie chicken:
“Switching genres in a futile effort to justify the series’ continued existence…”
Translation: They wanted Barbiecore horror, and got Fast & Furious: Doll Drift.
“Fun to see M3GAN go full sass-bot, but definitely a downgrade.”
OKAY, but like… did they not see her do a death drop mid-homicide??
💅 Awards Watch pulled out their therapy notebook and wrote:
“It loses the perverse brilliance of the first one.”
Same, bestie. But also, this one has more explosions and slightly hotter robots sooo…
🎭 Variety is rooting for M3GAN’s next era:
“Overblown, amusing… here’s hoping M3GAN 3.0 is crazier.”
WE AGREE. M3GAN 3.0 better come with lasers, a Grammy, and a revenge arc.
🎤 IGN got a little gushy and said:
“Jenna Davis and Amie Donald slay, again. Amelia’s a worthy upgrade. Human actors? Still cute.”
Okay, that’s the nicest way to say “the doll carried.”
🦾 The Wrap is having a blast with the robot-on-robot action:
“Double the fun.”
We love a cyborg catfight. Slay-on-slay violence is the new self-care.
🔪 Bloody Disgusting lives up to its name and said:
“Higher body count, sneaky violence, still PG-13 but serving edge.”
So basically: it’s giving chaotic summer slasher, but with Bluetooth.
Final Vibe Check:
If you came for logic, turn around. If you came for chaos, glitter, sass, and murder choreography—buckle up, baddies. M3GAN 2.0 is serving AI fever dream with a side of “girl help, the algorithm’s alive.”
She’s beauty. She’s grace. She will decapitate you with a TikTok face.
