A review by Gimly
Written by Gimly on 2016-09-04
Takes the tired old "Living Doll" premise and does okay with it by adding in a couple little spritzes of originality and a cast up to task. These two factors, as well as a pretty compelling third act almost salvage a good movie from this worn-out, boring premise.

Almost.

_Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._
