Film Review: M3GAN offers a charming Chucky who is not to be toyed with

This Blumhouse tech-horror sees an innocent-looking doll quickly appoint herself protector against all comers

M3Gan is written by Akela Cooper and James Wan, and directed by Gerard Johnstone

★★★★☆

Humans good, robots bad — such, at least, is the conventional Hollywood wisdom, and M3GAN (15A) has no intention of messing with a popular formula.
