An impressive turn for a franchise that keeps finding success in unexpected places.

Did we need a sequel to M3GAN? No. Am I glad that this creative team took the gamble with M3GAN 2.0? Hell yeah! Do we need another sequel? Please, no. It is always better to end on a high note and not try another gamble with an uncertain outcome.

Full Review | Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jul 24, 2025

M3GAN 2.0 is repackaged memes and soulless dialogue wrapped up in an exaggerated girl power aesthetic that never feels authentic.

M3GAN 2.0 is so campy it lives in the woods.

Full Review | Jul 23, 2025

Director Gerard Johnstone ... embraces the camp possibilities here, making “M3GAN 2.0” more a comedy than a horror flick. Not that it’s particularly funny, or scary.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 22, 2025

Overall, M3GAN 2.0 is a great time for fans of the first movie and younger horror fans.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 22, 2025

Perhaps the kitchen sink approach to this genre-shifting sequel wasn't the best idea, but it's still a good enough time given how, much like its titular bad bitch, self-aware it is.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 21, 2025

While it can be superficially entertaining at times, it veers so far away from its horror origins that it almost feels like self-parody.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | Jul 20, 2025

More unhinged but less fun than the 2023 original.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 18, 2025

M3GAN 2.0 is full of surprises, and that’s both a blessing and a curse.

Full Review | Jul 18, 2025

M3GAN 2.0 repeats the mediocre quality of the first film, mechanically recycling its formula. Now disguised with a Marvel-style tone of generic action and predictable comedy, it offers only a few redeeming scenes that briefly break the monotony.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/10 | Jul 16, 2025

M3GAN 2.0 is hopeful about its robotic main character and the humans surrounding her. We’re better when we learn from our past mistakes. Whether that be murdering four people and a dog or being the one who invented said murderous robot.

Everything and everyone in “M3GAN 2.0” is just shooting in the dark, and what should be an upgrade ends up being malware, a virus that corrupts your eyeballs and forces a hard reset of your mind.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 15, 2025

A fun, if overstuffed and overly long, sequel that shifts genres into full-blown action film. Arguably a combination of T2 and a Mission: Impossible film, Johnstone tries to his best to evoke Cooper's dialogue. Davis' delivery remains top notch.

This M3GAN 2.0 story is a mess... the sequel is just nowhere near as clever or cohesive as the first film.

Full Review | Jul 15, 2025

One can appreciate Gerard Johnstone throwing as much at the wall that can stick but one plot strand too many ultimately spreads the pleasures within too thin.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 14, 2025

M3GAN 2.0 is an absurdly good time. Everything you loved about M3GAN has been turned up to the max. This exciting sequel has more attitude, more dance moves, a larger body count, and double the androids.

Megan still has a smart mouth and it is funny.

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Jul 14, 2025

M3GAN 2.0 shifts gears into B-movie action territory—something no one really asked for. It’s overly long, occasionally funny, but mostly feels like a C-rate Terminator parody that’s instantly forgettable.

Full Review | Jul 11, 2025

The action is fun, the performances are top-notch, and the humor is solid. This woman’s work isn’t finished – she has a little life in her yet.
