Bionic

About This Movie

Bionic (2011) is an intriguing blend of sci-fi with a peculiar focus on autonomy. The film follows Zahia, a sex doll who breaks free from her prescribed existence. The tone is an unsettling exploration of identity, raising questions about consciousness and desire. Practical effects, though modest, lend a rawness to the narrative, capturing the strangeness of a sentient object navigating human emotions. Pacing might feel uneven at times, but it complements the disjointed reality Zahia faces. The performances, particularly from the voice talent, bring a surprising depth to a character born from plastic. It’s distinctive in its choice of subject matter, inviting viewers to ponder what it means to truly be alive.
