Maid Droid

The storyline of this film seemed basic yet intriguing based on the directions surrounding the maid droid. What was ultimately the finished product was somewhat of a slower paced anti-climatic and very predictable A. I/droid sci-fi film with with its expected explicit scenes. After viewing other similar 2023 release AIMEE: The Visitor, directed by Charles Band (also featured Faith West), expected a little more from this film. Maid Droid is watchable but drags on, unlike AIMEE. The way the film opens is quite a foreshadowing of what we should expect for our lead in the end. As watching and once we are introduced to our maid Mako (Faith West), we know she isn't who she's made out to be and that in the end, the lead male isn't going to survivor. It was only a matter of time. We are simply watching for the journey to see how it happens. Overall the story started relatively intriguing then slowed down and became repetitive and dull with a lot of dialogue. Ultimately the ending wasn't as suspenseful or thrilling as it should have been. Was halfway expecting a twist but there wasn't any. Very generic ending.

A pretty decent film from Rich Mallery (Writer/Director/Producer & Editor) that was a lot better than I expected, and a huge reason for this is thanks to Faith West - she adds a lot of layers to her Maid Droid character: a realistic android, a menacing killer, and a very sympathetic (as well as synthetic) girlfriend - I did not expect to care so much about Mako, but I did, and I wanted moore and moore! Yes, there is nudity, but since this is about a sex droid you kind of need that - but there is a lot moore going on, so please check it out - and definitely check out Faith's performance, she is a talent to keep yer eyes peeled for! :=8D.

We get a pretty good idea how the film ends from the opening. Our maid (Faith West) is seen cleaning the bathroom floor on her hands and knees so we can get as many down blouse shots as possible. Pan out and there is a dead guy in the tub. Pick up with Harrison (Jose Adam Alvarez) moping about, jilted by Julie (Kylee Michael). She was too young and too hot for him. Harrison's friend recommends Maid Droid, a beta project. He ends up getting the same maid and names her Mako. She does more than clean. Harrison gets attached and Mako develops human feelings including jealousy and scorn. The film could have been so much more. It was meant to be a lesson to men who treat women like tings. Poor acting. Bad script. Guide: F-word. Sex. Nudity (Kylee Michael, Faith West.)

Entertaining in its own right for a more softcore take on the sentient synthetic human.. i dig these, but this is nothing like Humans or AI or something deep rooted in moral dilemma concerning artificial self awareness. It's a straight to business affair, as in: Bring in the sex bot and get to cleaning the house until I feel like knocking boots.. and then make me a sandwich. At least it's honest with itself. In this case the bot doesnt act artificial at all, and carries around like a programmed human (make-up, acting issue), but I was still interested to see it's obvious ending play out. The tantalizing beauty playing the bot doesn't hurt anything either. If you don't mind cheap, unconvincing, simplistic, and absolutely no technical merit or plausibility in its premise, then give it a whirl.
