M3GAN
Year: 2022
Listed Genre: Horror, Sci-Fi, Thriller
Listed Summary: A robotics engineer at a toy company builds a life-like doll that begins to take on a life of its own.
The UnReel Take:
Bottom Line: Both entertaining and creepy, you don’t have to like horror movies to enjoy this one. M3GAN definitely passes as an evil doll, but, we just wish she would have been given more opportunity to shine. Perhaps if she got an R rating. Regardless, you can’t help but find yourself rooting for her for most of the movie, maybe save the last minutes. I don’t know, maybe that was just me.
UnReel AR: 8.5
UnReel Category: HorrorFi - A Great blend of horror and science fiction, plus a dabble of comedy.
Food Pairing: At the risk of sounding bougie, Steak Frites. I suppose any steak, medium, cut up into manageable strips will do. It at least worked for us.
Drink Pairing: This was a bourbon sipper for us. If you want a reasonable recommendation, find a bottle of Four Roses single barrel. Paired well with the food and the movie.
