Our Take On Subservience’s Netflix Success
M3GAN Is The Better Movie
Subserviencereviewsare deeply divided, with some praisingMegan Fox’s captivating performance as an android and others criticizing the film’s predictable and underdeveloped story, resulting in a 50% Rotten Tomatoes score. Many see it as a more erotic, B-movie-inspired take on themes seen inM3GAN(but starring an actual Megan) and agree that it lacks the originality and tension required to stand out in the crowded AI-focused sci-fi genre. In turn,M3GANremains the better movie about AI androids becoming hostile.
