Nico L If you saw Cyborg: A Documentary last year, you’ll be experiencing some déjà vu. Because My Husband the Cyborg covers a lot of that same ground—except this time, it’s through the lens of marriage. The film follows a guy who has chosen to integrate technology into himself, turning him into what can best be described as ‘a human with patch notes.’ His wife, meanwhile, has to navigate what that actually means for their relationship. And look, I get it—if your partner suddenly installs a Bluetooth receiver into their skull, date night is going to change. But at its core, this documentary isn’t just about one man—it’s about a movement that’s growing way faster than anyone is stopping to think about. This is where things get real interesting—and kinda disturbing. The documentary raises a lot of big questions: What does it actually mean to be human? At what point do we stop being people and start being… well, tech support? It talks about transhumanism, the push to merge with machines, and the idea that maybe—just maybe—people aren’t as excited about evolving as much as they are about showing off. Because let’s be real, a lot of these ‘enhancements’ aren’t really enhancements, they’re just… gadgets inside you instead of outside you. Like, why implant a chip to open your door when a key still works just fine? It feels less like human advancement and more like a Silicon Valley fever dream come to life And this is where we hit the big red warning light. Because, to quote the great Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park, ‘Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.’ And that’s exactly what’s happening here. These documentaries keep treating cyborg life as some groundbreaking leap forward, when in reality, it’s looking more and more like a reckless science experiment where we are the lab rats. The film doesn’t outright condemn this movement, but it definitely gives you that creeping what are we even doing? feeling So yeah, My Husband the Cyborg is definitely a conversation starter, and whether you’re all for tech integration or you’re still out here refusing software updates, it’s worth a watch. It’s eye-opening, a little terrifying, and a reminder that just because you can turn yourself into a walking motherboard… doesn’t mean you should Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/12/25 Full Review Pietro H I think the documentary is interesting and delicate. So human! Very different from the fast and breathless films that the industry demands, even though it talks about a very modern topic. And I would like to see more movies like this one.
