Quick Links 'Subservience' and 'M3GAN' Share a Similar Narrative Where 'Subservience' Fell Short Where 'M3GAN' Succeeded

Netflix's newly acquired film, Subservience, quickly rose to become the platform's current number-one most popular movie upon its streaming release on December 5, 2024. This comes as no surprise considering the immense star power that Megan Fox's name brings to the film. However, despite its popularity, the Scott Dale project has been met with mediocre critic and audience reviews, garnering many five out of 10-star ratings. Not only is the film far from astounding, but it is also gaining some negative attention for its parallels to the Universal Pictures 2022 box-office hit, M3GAN, directed by Gerard Johnstone.

Both M3GAN and Subservience take a special interest in telling sinister stories about realistic robots and warning of the futuristic dangers associated with advanced intelligence. Although that type of narrative seems like...

Following its theatrical bow in September, the AI thriller Subservience has shot to the top of Netflix's most-watched movies in December 2024. The film stars Megan Fox as Alice, a robotic android hired by Nick (Michele Morrone) to care for his two children after his wife Maggie (Madeline Zima) has a long hospital stay due to a heart condition.

For Nick and his children, things get most complicated when Maggie returns home and finds her domicile under threat from Alice. While neither silly, sexy, nor scary enough, the final moments of the psychosexual techno-thriller bear a bit more scrutiny. Less confusing than downright incredulous, Subservience takes a big, ambitious swing in the third and final act that is admirable if not unnerving. Here's what transpires at the end of Subservience.

[With the film available on digital/VOD now, here’s a reposting of our review of the insane Bullets of Justice]

During World War III, the American government initiates a secret project codenamed ‘Army Bacon’ in order to create super soldiers by inbreeding humans with pigs. 25 years later the hybrid Muzzles have occupied the top of the food chain, eating and farming humanity. Bounty hunter Rob Justice works for the last line of human resistance – a group of survivors hiding in a nuclear bunker deep underground – and his mission is to search and destroy Muzzle Central… and the mother.

Ok, so that’s the official synopsis for Bullets of Justice. Mine would read something a little more simpler, merely Wtf!??! Seriously. this is the Very definition of what the f*ck storytelling. There’s little rhyme or reason to waht we see on screen, the editing seemingly jumping from scene to scene,...

Bullets Of Justice in an exercise in how to make a film using whatever you have to hand. When you've blown most of your budget on a Danny Trejo cameo and a jetpack but you still have access to ruined buildings, guns, rubber pig masks and skimpy male underwear, international fame is still within your reach and you can still make your creative voice heard. At any rate, nobody who sees this film is likely to forget it.

Meet Rob Justice (Timur Turisbekov), a man with remarkably pointy ears and, so he tells us, the second best arse in the world. He and his sister Raksha (Doroteya Toleva) were raised by a mysterious gravedigger (Trejo) who taught them to survive in their post-Apocalyptic wasteland home, and ever since his death they have devoted themselves to vengeance upon the pig-human hybrids who dominate the world and hunt humans for food. They may.

Bulgarian-Kazakh production “Bullets of Justice” sashays its way to the silver screen with guns a-blazing. Cast as one of four films for the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival’s (Bifan) “Forbidden Zone” — a segment dedicated to Bifan’s most extreme genre films — “Bullets of Justice” crosses every “forbidden” threshold imaginable. Set with a post-apocalyptic landscape where pig-based superhumans and normies are war with each other, “Bullets of Justice” compiles time travel, Cold War tensions, and crude sexual humor into one hell of a movie.

The story starts with “Army Bacon” — the Nazi “Ubermensch” dream realized, only in the form of hog hybrids (nicknamed “Muzzles”) with a taste for human flesh. As Army Bacon enslaves and fattens their human creators in America, the rogue human-humans have built a resistance front in post-Soviet lands. Within the resistance, one angst-driven hero stands out amongst the rest: Rob (Timur Turisbekov). Muscular, angsty, and of...
