Mother/Android has left Netflix viewers ‘destroyed’ and ‘sobbing uncontrollably’.
The movie, starring Chloë Grace Moretz and Algee Smith, follows a couple called Georgia Olsen and Sam Hoth, who are on the run from thousands of evil robots that have turned on their owners.
Its official synopsis reads: “In a post-apocalyptic world rocketed by a violent android uprising, a young pregnant woman and her boyfriend desperately search for safety.”

One fan penned: “Mother/Android – WHAT THE HELL? This movie destroyed me… Still crying.”
Another added: “Wow Chloë Grace Moretz’s performance in Mother/Android on Netflix is incredible! I did not expect to get that emotional!”
“Mother/Android, f*** the critics,” commented a third viewer. “The movie is so great. Georgia narrating that letter she wrote to her son broke my heart I loved it.”
A fourth wrote: “When I heard what this movie was about, I was PUMPED to see a kickass movie about surviving amongst killer bots… and not sob uncontrollably… damn.”

However, others weren’t as impressed and took to the platform and blasted the film’s ending, writing: “I think I’ve seen this film before and I didn’t like the ending.”
“This Mother/Android film is useless and sad for no reason,” a second mused.
A third penned: “Mother/Android is another movie that shows us why we shouldn’t be messing with alternative Iife.
“Decent movie, but I wish there was a bit more of a background as to why it all went down. Still a worthwhile watch if you’re a sucker for the post-apocalyptic world like myself.”
Teasing the release on Twitter, the film’s director, Mattson Tomlin, commented: “My directorial debut Mother/Android is finally available on Netflix outside of the US!
“Making movies is insane and I am extremely thankful and proud that I got to make such a personal first film.”
