The best AI movie yet although "2001" is a close second. Chilling FX!

really well done. I just watched this again after seeing it 8 years ago. With all of the news about AI these days, I think this movie is even more relevant today.

I just watched this for the second time in about 5 years and this time around I picked up considerably more of the subtlety in parts of the story that I'd missed previously. BluRay provides a bit better viewing quality than when I first…

A film that isn't about what you start out thinking it is about. Some "Pygmalion", some "I Robot", but also something new. Be aware that the ending isn't what you were expecting, and it might take hours afterward before you really absorb…

A very interesting sci-fi indie film that may be viewed by anyone (positively or negatively, mind you) as a "Thinking Person's Sci-Fi Film." I've seen this film more than once and it's a great film worthy of your time. The performances…

A most unusual Sci-Fi movie. Vikander was terrific....very understated, subtle and slow paced movie. I liked the movie better after watching it twice...picked up on plot clues that I missed the first viewing. If you are looking for duels…

[spoiler alert] Inspiration for women or a warning to men? You decide.

Last night on Halloween over carrot cake this title came up. It is a highly underrated considering the movies topic. It is about the Turing test. Can a machine make you believe it has consciousness? I really liked the movie, I think it…

Not a BIG Sci-Fi fan; it has to be good. This one wasn't. I didn't even recognize one of my favorite actresses (Alicia Vikander) was in it. Think Google meets A.I. meets Frankenstein. That's it in a nut-shell. I will say it does make you…

This movie is for sci-fi fans. It is for adults because it has violence and it has images of nudity near the end of the movie. This movie deals with the creation and existence of robots that look like humans. The main character, Caleb…

One PJ Nabarro said 'At best, it feels more like a calling card or extended short film, but there is enough singularity here to mark Alex Garland out as a writer-director of promise'. Paul Byrnes offered 'This is a film of creepy…

You are a science fiction buff and haven't seen this? Haha. You lose your title.

A solid sci-fi thriller that's a feast for the eyes. Plus the dance scene with Oscar Isaac was like a free dose of serotonin in these trying times.

🤖 Why would a robot have any gender? You see this in fiction all the time, but it would be a lot of wasted effort in terms of the programming, etc, required to implement it.

Such an interesting movie. Every camera angle, every scene is specifically thought out. If you know anything or are interested in philosophical thought experiments on consciousness or artificial intelligence, you'll love this movie! It…

Amazing film, makes you think about what you are seeing.

This is a horrible SyFy/Thriller that completely insults the intelligence of any thinking person. Within just 5 minutes of watching Ex-Machina I was already bored to tears and things just got worse from that point in the story until I…

An undiscovered gem. Moody, stylish, cerebral, sophisticated and visually fascinating. The story is somewhat feeble, especially when it stumbles into predictably male-geek fantasy land. But the final plot twist made for a refreshing &…

Very interesting. Precursor to the future?

A very Phillip K. Dick exploration of AI that will either strike you as a thoughtfully constructed and beautifully rendered piece of science fiction, or a slow, predictable mess. You won't know which until you watch it.

I'd say that "Ex Machina" was a real insult to the intelligence of any thinking person. It was nothing but a super-shallow love story cheaply masqueraded under the pretense of A.I. If this film's story had been set even 10 years into…

This is my second viewing of a remarkable, intelligently written, well acted movie. It had my full attention from start to finish. Alicia Vikander and Oscar Isaac give stellar performances. Yes, this is the "Frankenstein" for the…

The beginning of this movie had a lot of potential. Even in the middle I had hope for a great ending. Toward the end everything began to bog down to a disappointing conclusion. Still worth a watch.

I thought the story was solid, the cast was good too. Worth a watch!
