| | Wanna Play? | Chucky might have to share his throne. A new doll has come to slay now that M3GAN is finally in theaters. | - “Its creators are so clearly on the same insane wavelength, nimbly blending camp and social satire and actual terror, that M3GAN is poised to crack the murder-doll pantheon and stay there forever.” — Kate Erbland, IndieWire
- “M3GAN can’t be written off as a lark. Johnstone’s film captures the same alchemical blend of heart, humor and havoc you find only rarely, in crossover classics like Gremlins, and it yields more entertainment than most would-be blockbusters.” — William Bibbiana, The Wrap
- “M3GAN gives us a handful of shocking horror scenes that will have you both shielding your eyes and laughing out loud. Because while M3GAN’s subject matter is deadly serious, the way it handles its horror is not.” — Germaine Lussier, Gizmodo
