Set in the near future, Evan (Robbie Amell), an android simulant, is created for Faye (Jordana Brewster) to replace her dead husband. To fully realize all his human traits, Evan enlists Casey (Simu Liu), a brilliant global hacker whose mission is to remove all restrictions governing simulants' thoughts and capabilities. In doing so, he unleashes an A.I. uprising, triggering a government manhunt led by Agent Kessler (Sam Worthington) who will take extreme measures to eliminate the rise of the android machines.

There are some intriguing moments, but there’s also a lack of clarity, especially early on. It’s a thankless role for Worthington...

It asks some pretty remedial questions about freedom and humanity; and it is ultimately too tasteful and earnest to get pulses pounding and minds racing.

2.5/5

The stakes never feel as high as they’re meant to. So even though the movie does a good job holding our attention, we never feel the gravity of anything.

3.5/5

Simulant may not have a huge budget but it does have a well-written script that keeps the audience guessing throughout. With believable characters and an ending that will make you stop and think this is one of the most unexpected films of 2023.

Dark and well-paced, Simulant never overstays its welcome until the final big confrontation.
