    52 // Comedy Horror // M3GAN (2022) directed by Gerard Johnstone // Movie Review

    I went and saw M3GAN for my birthday on Friday the 13th. Was it worth it? 100% Does Megan listen to punk rock? Is she truly a horse girl at heart? You decide. I apologize for what sounds like an airplane taking off constantly in the background. My microphone decided to pick up my 16 year old laptop trying not to overheat and explode.  --- // Movie Information // Director: Gerard Johnstone Studio(s): Blumhouse Productions Genre(s): Comedy, Horror Release Date: January 6, 2023 Average Rating on Letterboxd (out of 5): 3.3 MPA Rating: PG-13 Length: 102 minutes Budget: $12 million Box Office Earnings: $61.2 million --- View all of my links: https://beacons.ai/mayareviews  Help others: https://bit.ly/maya-social-resources Follow me @mayathebookworm on Twitter, TikTok, BookBub, and BookSirens; and @mayareviews on Tumblr.
