The more times I see this movie, the more I realize what a genius move it was to start with the Perpetual Pet commercial. We're immediately presented with this idea that the movie is set in a world not quite the same as our own, where a toy like this would actually be a big hit instead of just freaking kids out, and either you can get on board with that or the whole movie isn't going to work for you. And even my first time seeing it in the theater, it was a huge thrill to realize I was witnessing the birth of a new iconic horror character who would definitely become just as big as the likes of Jason and Freddy (and of course Chucky). In particular, she's perhaps the most successful case since Darth Vader of two different physical and voice actors combining into something magic and creating a character that neither could have accomplished on their own. Blumhouse didn't take long to confirm that a sequel is in the works and they hope for more from there, and I can't wait to see what else this team can do, although I do have to wonder what exactly the title of the third film is going to be when the regular name already used up the perfect one.

So, this is a case of a movie getting a trifle oversold to me. I do get why it got the following that it did. I ended up wanting it to be more serious than it ended up being. By that I mean it was a surprise that the bulk of the plot of this was about the kid dealing with grief from the loss of her parents, and how unhealthy it was that the doll is as a coping mechanism. Given how I heard people sell this film, I knew it would dovetail into ridiculous comedy, and it threw me off thinking once I saw what the set-up was, I kind of wanted this to be more of a cerebral sci-fi horror/meditation on grief and trauma and the processing of it all. I mean it is, it just doesn’t go full force with it as I might have ideally liked. Thus, when M3gan goes kill-crazy, it felt a letdown, and I’m saying, “Like I said, “dovetails into ridiculous comedy” just like the Chucky films. Boy, those are some good comedies.” Nothing about the film was strictly speaking bad, and I do like you liked it well enough, Jess. And the ridiculousness was entertaining, especially when the boy got killed. Extra cathartic that death was, considering what a sick, naughty boy he was. I’m with you on the initial scene with the therapist in that it was absolutely ridiculous to expect the aunt to be an instant expert on being a mom to the kid. I’m in the same boat as you are as I have no children, and my brother and sister in-law, likewise, have no kids. Short of a miracle happening, that’s not changing, so I wouldn’t even be in the position that’s presented in the film. I don’t even want to think about how I’d be in this scenario as I’m shit at dealing with kids. I’m no fucking good at it. It’s probably a benefit to the planet that I don’t have kids. I will say I loved the reconciliation scene between the two leads where they finally confess their pain and grief from the loss. Like you said, it’s better for a kid to be sad about losing her parents. The grief and pain from losing a parent is obscenely soul crushing when you’re an adult, believe me. It happens when you’re a kid, burying that shit’s harmful as hell I would imagine. Concerning the dog, may I simply say in my own defense, Jess, that I hadn’t seen the film, thus could not warn you. I had a moment similar to you when the dog bit the kid, I knew the dog’s fate was a forgone conclusion, I instantly thought of you, and dejectedly said, “...Ah, darn.” The way you described how you felt considering how you’ve spoken of Rocco, both in the past and in this reaction, it made me feel worse, saying, “Yeah, I hadn’t thought about that. Shit, I’m sorry, Jess.” The small mercy is the dog’s death is kept offscreen, still rotten, though. Other observations/responses I have to some other parts of the reaction: No, I never had a Furby either. Those things were fucking terrifying. And I agree with you that the name “Alternative school” does sound most suspect. Real though such a thing probably is, which leaves me with unclear feelings about that. Ultimately, this isn’t a film I was over the moon about. Nonetheless, I am happy to see you enjoyed the film, and it made for a fun reaction, thanks, Jess.

really pleased you decided to react to this film, i can't help but feel sorry for Gemma, not only does she lose her sister but she's suddenly had to care for her niece with little or no time to prepare

OK I'm a bit late to this party, but can anyone who's watched tell me if this is the regular version or the unrated version that's being reacted to?

you are literally the only reactor that I've seen to have such a nuanced take on the therapist and I love you for it. most people hate her immediately, not taking into account the fact that she was sent there to do a job and that although she could have been a bit softer and a bit less judgy, in the end her job was to do what was best for Cady. also, she ended up being right in the end to some extent because Gemma was not ready to accept Cady into her life and it took M3GAN going full murder robot for her to finally make concessions. I also really love what you said about Gemma not taking the time for herself after she had just lost her sister; I was literally screaming that at my screen when I first watched the movie haha thanks for another amazing reaction Jess!

I haven’t seen other reactions to this film, but judging by your comment, people are giving the therapist shit? I mean, I can’t judge fully, because like I said in my earlier comment, I thought in her initial scene, she was too harsh in expecting Gemma to instantly be an expert at childrearing. But like you and Jess said, the therapist’s job ultimately is to ascertain what is the best course of action concerning the care and welfare of Cady. And as the M3gan situation progressed, the therapist was right to be concerned about how healthy and/or harmful it was. I’m with you appreciating the take on the therapist that Jess had. I had a similar thing of wishing that Gemma had taken more time for herself to grieve. Of course, I’m horrible at that myself when I’ve lost friends and loved ones, so I can’t criticize too harshly.

don't know if you take suggestions for films but would love to see you react to the 2009 film Orphan
