A brilliant toy company roboticist uses artificial intelligence to develop M3GAN, a life-like doll programmed to emotionally bond with her newly orphaned niece. But when the doll’s programming works too well, she becomes overprotective of her new friend…with terrifying results.
You'll want to skip from 36:40 to 38:13.
During this time, it's night, and M3GAN uses a voice recording of the dog's owner to lure it to the hole in the wooden fence. Once the dog gets closer to the fence, you see M3GAN's face appear at the hole (from the dog's POV) before the scene switches to show the dog, from the side, being pulled through the hole (by its collar, I assume) while it tries to resist and yelps in fright. Then, the scene changes to the next morning where you first hear and then see the dog's owner calling out it's name while walking down the street looking for him.
Honestly, I don't understand why movie directors feel the need to show pets being in any sort of danger like this. You can make a horror movie's antagonist creepy, scary, or unsettling via other ways.
Cady's aunt is shown mostly to be an inexperienced and unwilling guardian, which mainly culminates in her non-intentional neglect of her. There is one scene in which they are arguing and it escalates with the aunt grabbing her arm pretty forcefully, but that is the extent of it. While technically this would not be considered abuse, I'm sayinf yes in case this kind of content would be upsetting for anyone.
People really need better reading comprehension skills. This category clearly requests for information about animal deaths other than a dog, cat, or horse, which have their own categories. Therefore, there should be nothing but NO’s in this section, because no other animals die in this movie. The dog info already exists elsewhere.
Original comment got deleted - there are dog attacks in this movie! There's no separate category for it, and it isn't listed under the dog death tag. Dogs attack people in this movie, or at least it's heavily heavily implied.
No, however at the end in the final battle between the protagonists and M3GAN, her body is torn in half and she walks around like a spider using her arms as legs.
Restraining occurs multiple times throughout the film. M3GAN is often restrained in order to like get tested, or updated and stuff, where her arms are shown to be restrained up like a puppet. Other times where someone is restrained are more violent scenes where M3GAN is attempting to kill someone, such as one of the employees that she ties and up and gets hanged. At the end of the film, she also restrains the protagonist against a table.
An older, much larger boy injures Cady's hand with a spiky plant. It is intentional and the boy is shown to have antisocial tendencies. M3GAN, in turn, maims the boy who hurt Cady, though M3GAN's attack goes beyond bullying.
A CEO makes a figurative comment about wanting to harm another company’s genitals as a way to say ‘make more money than them.’ Played for laughs. No actual injury to genitals whatsoever
One of the characters has his throat slashed in the elevator. (Unsure if this is just in the unrated version or in the theatrical version as well as I have only seen the unrated version)
Yes, while the other comments do say that the person who was hanged survives, I do think some will find it triggering or graphic, as he is shown to be hanging for a good minute or so before he is finally released from it. His face is shown to be all red and everything, and later he is even shown requiring a breathing mask at the end.
M3gan stages someone’s death to look like a suicide and explains this is what she is doing. She forces his hand onto the weapon, presumably to leave fingerprints. The man is resisting the entire time
There is a possible brief reference as the robot struggles to come to terms with the existence of death, but there isn't a debate. It is implied that if there had been more discussion the robot might not have become murderous.
There are multiple scenes where cars honk before an accident, but there is another scene where a child kicks the back of the drivers seat and the car swerves a bit.
The theatrical version doesn't have much blood, but an ear is pulled off onscreen. The uncensored version has lots of blood spray, and the ear is more extensively shown being removed. Also, in the uncut version a woman's face starts to melt from being sprayed with acid.
