M3GAN 2.0

Good news first:

-It's a better movie than the first one. There are a lot more action scenes because the budget has doubled.

-It can also satisfy the audience in terms of science fiction. The genre of the movie has already changed, this movie is action-sci-fi. So M3GAN is no longer a horror movie.

-There are good references to old movies.

-Beautiful Ivanna Sakhno, who we saw in Ahsoka, is very good in her role.

Now the bad news:

-Unfortunately, it can't fulfill its 2-hour running time. Too much unnecessary dialog. It's not easy to follow them.

-This time they made M3gan's face with CGI. Whereas the mask in the first movie looked much more realistic.

-It could have been a little more fun. The movie takes itself a bit seriously and contains very few jokes.

-There are some logic flaws in the movie.

In short, it's definitely a watchable movie.

Don't get me wrong. The first movie was great but it's not something I'd watch again. Number two I definitely would rewatch. Turning Megan into a protagonist was the best thing they could do. There's only so far she could have gone as a villian (like terminator and chucky) but making her an anti hero like Venom has made her a lot more likeable. Now she has a personality, she's funny and you root for her to win. I was super impressed with the second movie and I actually think the direction they took it in made it 10x better than the first one. Not many movies can pull off a sequel that ends up being just as good or better than the first installment. As long as they do it right, I'd watch another couple of movies with her in it! Very entertaining.

First of all, I have to admit I'm a fan of the 1st movie and when they first announced that they were making a sequel, I was super excited about it. So, when I first watched the official teaser of the movie I liked it, even though I had mixed feelings about it. Eventually, it was a nice sequel, but I'm not sure if enjoyed it the same as I did with the original movie. The movie synopsis was very interesting, mysterious and kinda different than the previous movie. Unfortunately, the storyline wasn't as well-written as the first movie and it was different than the previous one. The main characters were still kinda interesting, well-developed and likeable. The casting choices were nice and their performances were descent. Sadly, this movie wasn't as scary as the previous movie and the tone of this movie was comedic. Regarding the killcount of the movie, it wasn't bloody, at all and only some kills were kinda nice. In my opinion, the first movie's killcount was way better and the death scenes were far more brutal. At least, it was a very intense movie, action-filled and the fight scenes were great. The opening scene was predictable, fast-paced and very promising. The ending was kinda predictable and it was just nice. In my opinion, the plot twist was kinda unpredictable, but it wasn't really shocking and I'm not really a fan of it. Moreover, the cinematography and the score of the movie were both very well done and the CGI effects were great. Overall, "M3GAN 2.0" was just a nice sequel, adventurous and kinda funny sometimes, but it wasn't scary, at all! So, I would probably recommend it to my friends, but I think the fans of the 1st movie might not like it.

The movie is a fun, fast-paced sequel that leans into its creepy charm and techno-horror roots. The killer doll is back-smarter, sassier, and deadlier. While the story has a few weak spots and not all twists land, it's still an entertaining ride with slick visuals and some great dark humor. Not perfect, but definitely a good time.

Still, the pacing is brisk, the kills are inventive, and the tone strikes a fun balance between horror and absurdity. It may not be groundbreaking, but M3GAN 2.0 delivers exactly what fans came for.

A stylish, entertaining sequel that doesn't overthink itself. Just sit back and enjoy the chaos.

What started as one of my least anticipated movies of the year ended up being a surprisingly fun, franchise-worthy action flick. M3GAN 2.0 is-and trust me, it pains me to say this-this generation's Terminator 2.

In what feels like a deliberate attempt to gender-flip and modernize the Terminator formula, director Gerard Johnstone actually pulls it off. Like T2, this sequel manages to outshine the original by embracing action over horror, bringing back a former villain as a reluctant hero, and somehow making us root for them by the end.

The film hits almost every beat of T2-genre shift, character arcs, even the structure-yet it does it with enough style and self-awareness to feel fresh. It's not subtle about its inspirations, but it doesn't need to be. It's fun, sharp, and unapologetically over-the-top in all the right ways.

M3GAN 2.0 is definitely an improvement over the first, and now I'm genuinely curious to see where the series goes next. If we keep following the Terminator roadmap, I fully expect the next installment to be M3GAN: Rise of the AI, featuring a male M3GAN model named Mark-X hunting a now-off-the-grid Cady.
