This looks fun.

M3GAN, I mean Abigail, looks like a really fun movie. I'm in.

So much so that I was thinking how awesome it must be to know that someday you'll be in line for a biopic that will get you award buzz.

There's another trailer but avoid it because they're starting to give away plot points and cool moments.

It's fun, but as I'm sure you guessed, not a thinking man's movie. A bit slower than I expected, with far more character strokes than action.
Alisha Weir steals the movie. She is excellent. In fact, in terms of acting, the cast is pretty solid. Elon Musk lookalike, Kevin Durand and Kathryn Newton, particularly shine among the kidnapping crew. Props to Dan Stevens too who is given the most to work with and clearly had fun. Angus Cloud (RIP - suicide from what I've been told) made me immediately dislike him, which is to his credit because he was easily the most unlikeable in the crew. William Catlett was just there. He was fine, but his character had very little to do.
Giancarlo Esposito is wasted here just because he's not given enough to do, and his voice really threw me for a loop after listening to him talk the last month or so while playing Far Cry 6.
There are problems with the writing. They kind of rewrite vampires a bit to either fit their plot or because they didn't bother looking up the mythology of vampires. That results in some confusion for an audience trained on 100 years of set vampire rules.
It's pretty light on horror. I think there are more jokes than jump scares. It also only gets gory when one specific thing happens, but it's pretty funny at the same time.
Recommended.
