I agree somewhat with @Juggernaut in that the film is kind of a low budget version of Ex Machina but in that it does not go nearly as deep as the Alicia Vikander's movie does. It does touch upon the never-ending question whether an artificial humanoid being is truly human but only enough to fit the dark comedy's plot.

Glad to finally see Sophie Thatcher in something else. I saw her in Heretic, was a little impressed, and thought she could do more. She does here. Very believable. And carries the movie from start to finish DESPITE Jack Quaid being Jack Quaid as usual.

Quaid is a chip off his father's block. He is rarely does a part where his role-playing does not have him a tiny bit neurotic and uncertain of himself in some way. His father does not play similar roles but they have similar acting styles in that they always seem to play like they would as real versions of themselves--even though I do not think they are not really like the roles they usually play in real life.

I found myself predicting many plot twists in the movie. Not in a boring way but in a 'I know this or that character deserves what I think will happen to them' sort of way. I tend to fall into that routine watching slasher movies. This time it was more fun because of the sarcastic nature of each new event.
I do not know if I just did not pay attention to the name or just did not put it together, however I had no clue he was the son of Dennis Quaid.

Although he may never be known as Oscar award winning type of actor.
I think I have enjoyed most things I have seen him in.

He is great in The Boys.
 


Meh.
I liked Beekeeper although it was nothing earth shattering.
This one I just did not get into.
He generally plays the same role on in most of his movies and for the most part they are ok for what they are. However every so often he puts out one that I just do not care for. This one and The Wrath of man fit that bill.




Liked the first one better as it was a little fresher and you got the back story to it.
This one had a little more heart or humor scenes in it but just not as good as the first one IMO
