M3GAN 2.0 Streaming Now on Peacock: Mixed Reviews Pour In

UPDATE: The highly anticipated sequel, M3GAN 2.0, is now streaming on Peacock, but early reviews indicate a mixed reception. Following the success of the original film, which grossed $182 million, the sequel has only managed to earn $39 million to date.

Fans of the first film may want to think twice before diving in. The sequel, directed by Gerald Johnstone, shifts genres from horror-comedy to a more action-comedy vibe, a transition that some critics find ill-advised. As viewers settle in, they quickly realize that the film has traded its signature kills for scenes of characters typing furiously on computers.

The film begins on the Turkish-Iranian border, where an AI soldier named AMELIA, portrayed by Ivanna Sakhno, goes rogue, setting the stage for a convoluted plot. Meanwhile, the beloved character Gemma, played by Allison Williams, now advocates against AI technology, warning audiences, “You wouldn’t give your child cocaine, so why would you give them a smartphone?”

Critics have noted that the screenplay falters with excessive exposition, leaving viewers longing for the rapid-fire entertainment of the original. Even the return of fan-favorite characters feels lackluster, diminishing the emotional stakes that resonated in the first film.

In a surprising twist, Gemma must rely on M3GAN to help tackle the rogue AMELIA, despite her previous malevolence. The film attempts to deliver humor and excitement but ultimately falls short, as pacing drags and characters lack depth.

As audiences weigh their options, the consensus seems to tilt toward disappointment. M3GAN 2.0 has been described as a “dull, flabby mess” lacking the crisp comedic timing of its predecessor.

What’s Next: Streaming for Peacock subscribers, M3GAN 2.0 is available now, but many are already calling for a return to form in the anticipated spinoff, SOULM8TE, set for release next year.

For those interested in watching, Peacock offers two subscription plans: Premium with ads at $10.99/month and Premium Plus ad-free at $16.99/month. Annual plans are also available, providing a more cost-effective option for avid viewers.

As the conversation around M3GAN 2.0 heats up, audiences are encouraged to share their thoughts online. Will you stream it or skip it?
