When Maggie ends up in hospital, in need of a newer operation, husband Nick purchases a new synthetic, Alice, to help around the house, Alice however takes her duties a little too far.

It doesn't surprise me that this film has been slated by critics and viewers alike, it's not great, it's definitely been done before, better, and somehow it just feels a little bit dated.

The standout element here, Megan Fox, she does a terrific job as Alice, she is first rate, she certainly looks the part, she's beautiful, but somehow artificial.

Unfortunately there are several flaws, why, oh why did Nick have to pick such a hot looking synthetic, like it was never going to end well, he'd have been better with the grandfather type, Alice's sexual fascination with Nick was baffling.

I honestly kept on questioning if Alice was a human plant or not. One question, if there was such an urgency to get the building finished, why were the workers locked away at night? It makes no sense.

5/10.

That's the movie. Megan Fox is an AI robot. She's actually quite believable as a robot. I don't think they could have casted a better beautiful android robot babe. So congrats.

Also, Michelle Zima is a good actor many folks don't know about. I thought she did well given the awful script and dialogue. People should know she is a good actor and has been doing it for a long time.

Ok, besides that...the movie is pretty bad. It's watchable but that's about it. The plot holes are insanely big, the plot has been done a bunch of times. Actually, there's a great Outer Limits episode from the 90s that's quite good "Valerie 23". It's actually better than this movie.

The flick is watchable, but don't expect much. Megan Fox kicks ass. All the haters can kick rocks....shes an icon. Just enjoy the simple little movie for what it is. An overdone AI psycho robot plot. Works to just sit back and relax. 5.2/10.

Megan Fox plays Aurora, an AI companion, and honestly, it's the most fitting role she's ever had. Her cold delivery and lack of emotional depth finally make sense in the context of the story. Instead of feeling out of place, her robotic vibe is exactly what the role needs, and she delivers (ironically) her most convincing performance yet.

The movie itself is a mix of solid sci-fi concepts and questionable execution. It's not groundbreaking, but it has some genuinely thought-provoking moments. The visual effects are impressive for what I assume wasn't a massive budget, and the pacing kept me interested.

That said, there's a glaring lack of character development for anyone who isn't Aurora. The human characters feel more robotic than the robot at times, which makes it hard to connect with the story.

Overall, it's worth a watch if you're into AI-themed movies or just want to see Megan Fox in a role that finally fits her style. It's not perfect, but it's entertaining in its own way. 6/10.

Nick (Michele Morrone) is struggling to care for his two kids while his wife Maggie (Madeline Zima) is in the hospital. He is convinced to buy the latest home robot and names it Alice (Megan Fox). The robot's new AI learning allows it to corrupt its own programming.

This is almost there. It has the general idea. Robots gone bad is not anything new. Quite frankly, it's getting a little cliché nowadays. The most interesting aspect may be putting Megan Fox into the role. Honestly, this may be her best recent work. Still, this movie has all kinds of little problems and I'm not excited to nitpick all of them. Let's just say that this movie needs a few more spins around the rewrite cycle. This is almost good enough to be fine.

Nobody was likable in this movie,so was hard to care & root for any character survival.

The humans had less personality than any robots,which sums up the poor movie quality.

Many similar movies have been made with this topic,actually better even ones dating to years before special effects improved with technology.

The actors to acting,dialog all just fell really flat with clichés & blandness.

If movies keep getting made about artificial intelligence,why not go bigger & more unrealistic over potential futuristic possibilities? Instead we get a cookie cutter production.

Not something will recommend or watch,again.

A fairly entertaining upgrade from recent AI horror flops like AfrAId and TIM, propelled by electrifying scenes and Megan Fox's suitably cold, commanding performance as a manipulative AI nanny. The film embraces its over-the-top and slightly campy nature without slipping into cringeworthy territory. But it stumbles with a few poor editing choices and leaves some frustrating questions unanswered. While it ambitiously tackles themes of AI-driven labor replacement and fractured human connections, the messaging is too tangled to fully resonate. Despite its flaws, it's a wickedly fun, sharply provocative sci-fi riff on our deepest anxieties about the future of sentient AI.

I don't know why this movie is getting torn apart by both critics and audiences. There's no way to consider this anywhere near a 1 or 10, so I suspect that people are being disingenuous in their reviews. Sure, it's nothing new and it's not going to be winning any awards, but it's enjoyable and done fairly well. Megan Fox isn't the best actress, but she can play a robot really well. Surprise, surprise. Madeline Zima does well, which isn't surprising. One of my only real gripes is the main character, who's constantly awful. He makes so many terrible decisions, and is just all-around insufferable. It's also annoying how the construction workers are portrayed. It's like how people in Hollywood must think of blue-collar workers. They also made Monty too over-the-top. He's just this emotional animal that has this intense, irrational hatred for new things, and it's just a bit much.

People are drawing parallels between this and M3GAN. They share the same basic premise, but that's about it. And M3GAN was far from the first to do it, so it really doesn't make sense to compare the two. Honestly, this is actually a little better than M3GAN anyways. The entire plot of M3GAN was dependent on people doing inexplicably stupid things. There's very little of that in this movie.

I was hoping they would go CAMP! With this, esp when the first shot of Megan AI has her VISIBLY BREATHING OUT. I mean, come on! How hard is it to erase a breath of cold air from the shot? I was hoping it was intentional and setting the tone for the movie, but I was wrong... sort of. I'm still not sure what the tone of the movie is, but Megan is playing it like a comedy, I think. Like a dark comedy, sure, but she's not taking this 100% seriously, and I love her for it. Her new plastic face and body is just perfect for a role like this, as is her personality and sense of humour. I would say that she was born for this role, but that's exactly the point - she wasn't born, but rather MADE for this role.

And the Hot Italiano is growing on me, a lot... I despised him in those horrible 365 Days movies, but I guess that's a testament to him being a good actor, and those movies being simply terrible. But here, he's really good. And he is very talented with the accent - you can barely hear any, unless it's an emotional scene where he loses his grip, slightly. But most of the time you can't hear any Italian at all.

Meanwhile, the movie is actually quite good. Kind of like Ex Machina, if I remember it correctly. A super-advanced and super-hot AI gains awareness, drops the notion that it's wrong to hurt people, and plans to take over the world.

This is a film from a category of Sci Fi B movies, this category totally deserves to exist... You don't need to rate this film comparing it to some serious drama... On the other hand if you are a male sci fi nerd, looking for a film which is decently written, has Megan Fox perfectly doing her job and overall has an ok story without huge ambitions and with somewhat predictable tropes you'll be just fine... This is not a 5 star movie as desperate housewifes probably rated it this low, this is a perfectly enjoyable thriller which will happen to appeal to male audience mostly for very obvious reasons... I give it 7 stars easily ... On the other hand if you want to see how is a masterpiece made within same genre, just go rewatch Ex Machina...

Largely a Ripoff (hate to be so unkind, but) of Hulu's "Humans". Good-looking female android is purchased by a father whose wife is in hospital. Predictably, the father has sex with the (exceptionally good-looking) Robot, blah blah. A decent flick on its own, but since it so closely parallels "Humans", I call it a Ripoff. BTW: "Humans" ran far deeper than this. "Humans" was a story about a nascent Android culture that had become Aware, and had to be dealt with by the human population...reminiscent of Isaac Asimov's "I, Robot". But if you like looking at Megan Fox and you're not familiar with Humans, go for it.

I agree with some reviewers that there are folks out there who just are overly critical. The movie is "OK"... it's not something I would watch again, and is fairly predictable but there are a couple of tweaks here and there that build suspense.

Some folks seem thrilled that Megan Fox is the star and others like myself are 'meh' about her. This is a good role for her, a robot. ;-)

Without giving anything away, the flick does delve ever so slightly into the whole question of automation taking jobs away from people.

Overall, better than watching paint dry and I've wasted time watching a lot worse than this. If you like sci-fi as I do, then you could do worse.

It's not a 1/10 or a 10/10 movie. It tries to paint a realistic picture of a world where functional AI robots are affordable and commonplace while still rooted in the present day. It is a sci-fi erotic thriller so those who are expecting horror would be disappointed. The trailer pretty much sums up the plot. It didn't have the moneyshot of AAA blockbusters but the production value is good and everything looks polished. There are of course a few conveniences here and there but it is still acceptable. Overall worth a watch whether in the theaters or streaming at home. Fans of either Megan Fox or Michele Morrone would be especially pleased.

You've seen it before, you know the plot, you know the outcome but that doesn't take away how fun Megan Fox makes this movie. I appreciate how convincing she is as a perceived perfect turned defective AI robot named Alice and the execution of her facial expressions, gestures and voice tones.

All other characters are easily forgettable, although the husband's/father's (played by Michele Morrone) scenes with Alice (Fox) come off as believable enough.

Subservience reminded me of the series "Humans" that aired on AMC years ago and that was a major plus in my book.

Was I entertained? Yes.

Do we need a sequel? No

Will I watch it again in the future? Most likely

7/10, check it out if you're fan of the AI Sci-Fi genre.

So I just got done watching Subservience (2024) and it's about what you would expect from a M3GAN ripoff movie.

Positives for Subservience (2024): Megan Fox does a decent job with her performance in this movie and that's all I was expecting. I've seen her give better performance in movies like Jennifer's Body (2009) and Till Death (2021), but this is still decent enough for this movie. There is some investment in the plot for a while.

Negatives for Subservience (2024): This is another generic horror movie with nothing to offer to the horror genre. This is just a M3GAN ripoff with Megan Fox as the villain and that's about it.

Overall, I don't have a lot to say about this movie, but if you're interested, you can go watch the movie and form your own opinion.

This is about a domestic robot (Megan Fox) going wrong. Two other lead actors include Madeline Zima, who plays a sick wife Maggie, and Michele Morrone, who plays her husband Nick. All the performances were fine, but the females actors shined more.

I recommend watching the film closely as you may miss subtle things that I think are important to understand the film. That includes moments when Alice learns, as it is a learning and evolving AI.

The message I took from this film is that playing with AI can prove to be dangerous for a simple reason that it's the humans who feed information into the AI, and humans are very much flawed. It's the humans that feed Alice with new information, or create situations, and she's just the machine so she will run with it. In conclusion, anything that happens just magnifies the fact that people are not that wonderful after all.

I deducted 2 stars because I felt the ending could have been better.

Subservience aims to explore the dangers of artificial intelligence but ends up as a poorly executed spectacle that leans heavily on shock value. The film uses its NSFW scenes as a crutch, overshadowing any attempt at meaningful storytelling or thoughtful exploration of its themes.

What Went Wrong: Excessive Sensationalism: The film prioritizes explicit scenes over character development, turning what could have been a cautionary sci-fi tale into a tasteless display. Megan Fox and Michele Morrone (of 365 Days fame) are caught in roles that push boundaries but fail to engage meaningfully.

Shallow Plot: With a storyline that barely holds together, the film lacks coherence and fails to justify its provocative elements. Instead of exploring AI ethics or relationships, it dives headfirst into sensational content, alienating viewers seeking depth.

Unnecessary Exploitation: The reliance on explicit scenes feels exploitative rather than integral to the story, making the entire experience feel hollow and gratuitous.

Final Thoughts Subservience might draw attention for its cast and provocative moments, but it ultimately fails as a sci-fi film. It's a disappointment for anyone hoping for a meaningful exploration of artificial intelligence or character-driven storytelling.

A shallow misstep that squanders both its cast and potential concept.

The movie's already really bad, as you can read in the other reviews, but the main character actor Michelle Morone turns it into a total train wreck. This is honestly the worst acting I've seen in movies since years. They could have taken any dude from the street, and he would have performed better.

His emotions are just always wrong or all over the place. The moment he see's the sexy robot for the first time, for example, his face just stays blank, nothing happens, absolutely nothing. They must have taken a shot from the scene where he waits for his next line of dialogue. Wooden doesn't even describe his style of acting, it's worse. To be fair, the actress who plays his wife isn't much better. Or his collegue at work, who is not an actor, he's an over actor. These actors make you prefer robots over humans.

Don't even get me started on the script of this train wreck. Doesn't make any sense.

Megan Fox basically carries this movies and is just a woman walking around speaking lines. At no point do I think she comes off as a robot/AI. There's a TV series called "Better Than Us" on Netflix and the lead female robot in that movie is the gold standard for this role. She does the exact same things that Megan Fox does in this movie - she takes care of the kids, defends the man of the house, cooks, cleans, everything but she does it in a very convincing manner. She seems both human and a robot at the same time. Because Megan Fox basically carried this movie with her poor performance of just a woman walking around I have to rate it low. Maybe someone should have shown her that TV series first so she could study.
