R.T. Thorne’s story about what happens when humans dwell on hope without food. It’s a well-thought-out idea and an original take on what would happen when the food stops. How far will we go to survive? At first, I thought 40 Acres was just another run-of-the-mill action/ thriller. I was …

Written by the film’s director, Gerard Johnstone (Housebound 2014), M3gan 2.0 once again toys with the idea of the dangers of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
