Soulm8te

I think we can all agree that this is Megan, right? It is in essence the exact same story, just with a slightly more grown-up version of the same robot with a slightly different supporting cast, but it's still all Megan. It is not as creepy as Megan, but that is partially because we've seen obsessive partners before and Megan lent another dimension to that, which this movie does not. It just leans heavily into the crazy possessive girlfriend and just makes her a killer robot that he is responsible for that isn't very innovative and that cheapens the movie. It's not a bad movie by any stretch but it is derivative of several other older works and if you wanted creepy robots you should probably just watch Megan instead.

I liked it better when it was called, 'Deadly Friend'. Google it. Deadly Friend came out in the 80's and was WAY better.

I liked this one better than m3gan 1 and 2, which feels like action flicks that try too hard to be horror; They are not bad flicks, but they are not scary. It's also akin to Companion, which is a fun comedy and does not even try to be scary. soulm8te is tagged as 'Horror, Science Fiction, and Thriller', it also fails at the horror bit, in the classical sense, but the syfy and thriller bits work better than other similar flicks; Still runs by the numbers thou. I would be much better if they stopped markething these cutting-edge-tech-gone-wrong flicks as 'horror' and just called them thrillers, which would be at least accurate. But, bussiness is bussiness I guess. Edit, and yes, Deadly Friend is the OG of these.
