Save Megan 2.0!!!

This week on the I Hate Critics Movie Review Podcast, Jeff and Sean kick things off by once again lamenting the state of Star Wars fandom, which never fails to disappoint. Then it's full throttle into two of the week's biggest (and most unfairly maligned) releases, plus a look back at a modern sci-fi classic.

🚗 F1: The Movie

Directed by Joseph Kosinski Starring Brad Pitt, Kerry Condon, Damson Idris, and Javier Bardem Sonny Hayes was once Formula 1's most promising driver until a devastating accident derailed his career. Decades later, he's lured back to the track to help save a struggling team and mentor a young hotshot, learning that redemption isn't a solo journey.

🤖 Megan 2.0

Directed by Gerald Johnstone Starring Allison Williams and Violet McGraw Two years after M3GAN's murderous rampage, Gemma is trying to regulate AI—while the military creates an even more dangerous android, Amelia. When Amelia becomes self-aware, Gemma is forced to bring back M3GAN—faster, stronger, deadlier—to stop her. We loved Megan 2.0 and launch our own little campaign to SAVE MEGAN 2.0!, as the movie is getting unfairly buried at the box office and even its own studio seems to be giving up on it.

🔍 Classic: Ex Machina (10 Years Later)

Directed by Alex Garland Starring Domhnall Gleeson, Alicia Vikander, and Oscar Isaac We revisit the haunting, thought-provoking Ex Machina a decade later. Caleb wins a chance to test Nathan's beautiful and cunning AI creation, Ava—but quickly realizes he's more of a pawn than a participant. Still chilling and relevant today.
