Morgan is the latest version of what happens when movie scientists play God.

But are the results electrifying?

Venture a guess how it turns out for them?

Like any child, pre or present-adolescence, Morgan (Anya Taylor-Joy) is capable of throwing temper tantrums.

Of special note is Michelle Yeohs mysterious maternal figure.

Anya Taylor-Joy, meanwhile, is having a tremendous career breakout in 2016.

The performance walks a thin line between innocence and primal horror.

It instead addressed new and fascinating opinions about AI, personhood, and even a life online.

A more ambitious script would have sought to do something weirder with Morgans relationships with these people.
