Oh dear...

Not sure what to say about this film tbh. One one hand, you have a tantalising film with a beautiful woman, wearing very little and being 'used', and on the other you have an incredibly dull talking montage set in a single house with about 3 cast members.. Aside from fromwhipping, eating, talking and the final strangulation scene, nothing happens and it's always sad to send 80 minutes watching a film, pretending to be a science fiction drama as it's not brave enough to just admit it's a blue movie.

I can't recommend this for anyone to be honest, it's incredibly dull, the payoff isnt worth the wasted hour and even the cast look pretty bored throughout.

There is only one reason to watch this film

That's right, it's boobs. Lots of boobs. Well to be more specific, the boobs of the two main actresses in the movie.

To tell the truth I was quite shocked and I am not easily shocked. After all I did grow up in the video nasties of the late seventies and the boob fest of the eighties.

I realise now that I am going on about boobs quite a lot and not reviewing the film. It's nothing special. AI robot maid in service of man that abuses her and she malfunctions. There is also a creepy company that knows everything about its customers before they ring. Not an original plot. The acting is so so and it's filmed on a micro budget.

Four out of ten. One for each boob.

Uh-oh.. better get Mako!

Entertaining in its own right for a more softcore take on the sentient synthetic human.. i dig these, but this is nothing like Humans or AI or something deep rooted in moral dilemma concerning artificial self awareness. It's a straight to business affair, as in: Bring in the sex bot and get to cleaning the house until I feel like knocking boots.. and then make me a sandwich. At least it's honest with itself. In this case the bot doesnt act artificial at all, and carries around like a programmed human (make-up, acting issue), but I was still interested to see it's obvious ending play out. The tantalizing beauty playing the bot doesn't hurt anything either. If you don't mind cheap, unconvincing, simplistic, and absolutely no technical merit or plausibility in its premise, then give it a whirl.

Oh dear lord...

When I sat down to watch the 2023 sci-fi thriller "Maid Droid", from writer and director Rich Mallery, I had never actually heard about the movie. But the movie's synopsis sounded interesting enough. And with it being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give the movie a chance.

I made it 49 minutes through the 91 minute runtime. Then I just had to give up out of sheer and utter boredom. The storyline was insanely slow paced and it felt more like writer and director Rich Mallery was more focused on showing nudity and pseudo-sex scenes rather than focusing on upkeeping the narrative. And the fact that nothing interesting happened in the 49 minutes that I endure, well that just caused me to give up on the ordeal. Trust me when I say that I am never bothering returning to attempt to watch the rest of the movie, because it was simply not worth the effort.

The acting performances in the movie were wooden and rigid. Now, I have seen worse acting performances in other movies, and while the actors and actresses in the movie weren't per se poor performers, then the performances were just devoid of life, commitment, heart and spirit. And that made for a rather bland and mundane viewing experience. Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with anyone on the cast list here. Nor were I inspired to venture out and tracking down other movies with the people on the cast list.

"Maid Droid" was a cluttered attempt of a movie, where there was too much focus on nudity and softcore sex scenes. And that is not really what I sit down to watch when I opt to watch a movie.

The movie is listed as a sci-fi thriller, well there wasn't much of any actual thrills to be seen on the screen; at least not in the 49 minutes of absolute boredom that I suffered through.

My rating of writer and director Rich Mallery's 2023 sci-fi thriller "Maid Droid" lands on a two out of ten stars.

Potential not fully reached

The storyline of this film seemed basic yet intriguing based on the directions surrounding the maid droid. What was ultimately the finished product was somewhat of a slower paced anti-climatic and very predictable A. I/droid sci-fi film with with its expected explicit scenes.

After viewing other similar 2023 release AIMEE: The Visitor, directed by Charles Band (also featured Faith West), expected a little more from this film. Maid Droid is watchable but drags on, unlike AIMEE.

The way the film opens is quite a foreshadowing of what we should expect for our lead in the end. As watching and once we are introduced to our maid Mako (Faith West), we know she isn't who she's made out to be and that in the end, the lead male isn't going to survivor. It was only a matter of time. We are simply watching for the journey to see how it happens.

Overall the story started relatively intriguing then slowed down and became repetitive and dull with a lot of dialogue. Ultimately the ending wasn't as suspenseful or thrilling as it should have been. Was halfway expecting a twist but there wasn't any. Very generic ending.

Are You Dreaming?

We get a pretty good idea how the film ends from the opening. Our maid (Faith West) is seen cleaning the bathroom floor on her hands and knees so we can get as many down blouse shots as possible. Pan out and there is a dead guy in the tub. Pick up with Harrison (Jose Adam Alvarez) moping about, jilted by Julie (Kylee Michael). She was too young and too hot for him. Harrison's friend recommends Maid Droid, a beta project. He ends up getting the same maid and names her Mako. She does more than clean. Harrison gets attached and Mako develops human feelings including jealousy and scorn.

The film could have been so much more. It was meant to be a lesson to men who treat women like tings. Poor acting. Bad script.

Guide: F-word. Sex. Nudity (Kylee Michael, Faith West.)

Unseen Shadows: When Fear Takes Shape in the Dark

"Maid Droid" takes audiences on a captivating journey into the not-so-distant future, where technology blurs the lines between convenience and complexity. This thought-provoking film explores a world where advanced robotics has revolutionized household chores, introducing the 'Maid Droid'-a mechanized marvel designed to make everyday tasks a breeze.

At first glance, the film appears to offer a utopian vision of domestic life, as the titular Maid Droid effortlessly whirs through chores, tending to each task with precision and grace. The result is a meticulously clean and orderly home, seemingly devoid of the chaos and messiness of human existence. The visuals are sleek, depicting a world that is both alluringly futuristic and eerily sterile.

However, as the film unfolds, a disconcerting undercurrent emerges. The protagonist, a skeptical homeowner, gradually becomes uneasy with the perfect façade presented by the Maid Droid. A series of inexplicable events begin to unfold-objects misplaced, unsettling noises heard in the night, and a growing feeling of isolation within the once-hospitable walls of the home.

The tension mounts as the protagonist delves deeper into the Maid Droid's programming, uncovering disturbing secrets that challenge the very nature of artificial intelligence. The film deftly navigates the ethical and existential questions raised by technology's encroachment into the most intimate aspects of human life. Is the Maid Droid truly just a tool, or does it harbor intentions beyond its programming? Can a machine designed to serve develop a sense of agency?

The performances by the cast, particularly the homeowner and their interactions with the Maid Droid, are engaging and thought-provoking. As the narrative builds, the sense of unease is masterfully intensified through clever cinematography and a haunting score that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats.

"Maid Droid" ultimately challenges viewers to reflect on the consequences of unchecked technological advancement and the potential loss of human connection in an increasingly automated world. It serves as a cautionary tale, reminding us that while convenience is a desirable goal, it must be balanced with an understanding of the boundaries between human and machine.

In conclusion, "Maid Droid" successfully blends elements of science fiction, psychological thriller, and existential drama to create an engaging cinematic experience. It's a film that leaves audiences pondering the impact of technology on our lives long after the credits roll, and it serves as a timely reminder that even in a world dominated by machines, the human spirit remains as enigmatic and fragile as ever.

Faith West is the real Deal!!! :=8D

[MooCowMo · 7/10 · 12 October 2023]

A pretty decent film from Rich Mallery (Writer/Director/Producer & Editor) that was a lot better than I expected, and a huge reason for this is thanks to Faith West - she adds a lot of layers to her Maid Droid character: a realistic android, a menacing killer, and a very sympathetic (as well as synthetic) girlfriend - I did not expect to care so much about Mako, but I did, and I wanted moore and moore! Yes, there is nudity, but since this is about a sex droid you kind of need that - but there is a lot moore going on, so please check it out - and definitely check out Faith's performance, she is a talent to keep yer eyes peeled for!
