The Surprise Horror Hit About A Killer Doll That Dominated the Box Office

As of February 20, 2023, M3GAN has grossed $93.7 million in the United States and Canada, and $77 million in other territories, for a worldwide gross of $170.7 million.
M3GAN is proving popular with a Rotten Tomato score of 93% on the Tomatometer and a score of 78% on audiences. But, as praise for horror is often too rare, I decided to see myself to see if it’s worth the hype.
