The age-old debate of nature versus nurture gets put through the sci-fi lens in 20th Century Fox's new film Morgan. Director Luke Scott (son of Ridley Scott, whose influence is clearly felt on this film) makes his feature-length debut with a stellar cast, but Morgan fails to live up to the full promise of its premise.
Kate Mara stars as Lee Weathers, a risk management consultant sent in to investigate an incident where a genetically engineered being went rogue. She is tasked with determining whether the creation, Morgan (The Witch's Anya Taylor-Joy), should be terminated or allowed to live before it causes more havoc.
The scientists who created Morgan -- an impressive lineup of stars including Michelle Yeoh, Toby Jones, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Game of Thrones' Rose Leslie and Narcos' Boyd Holbrook -- are quick to call her "special" and brush her violent outbreak aside. The film does a bad job of explaining what exactly they were looking to accomplish with this artificially created human model, the L-9; essentially they're trying to prove they can create a peaceful model that isn't ruled by its nature as a weapon, which is why this outburst is a major issue for them and the company they work for.
