About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a near-future AI thriller with a familiar “helper turns dangerous” hook and some pulpy fun, especially if you liked Till Death; Not for you if you need originality, deep character work, or subtlety.

Pros: intriguing AI premise; entertaining thrills; strong robot performance | Cons: predictable story beats; weak character chemistry; uneven pacing
