Ex Machina (2015)

Beautiful, moving film.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Well i don't have anything to say really...The film was just an illustration of being trapped.. Furthermore it also indicates the major facto..MANNNN STFU REPORT THIS PSYCOTIC ROBOT

A classic. Wonderful performances from the small cast. Technically stunning too, was amazed to hear no greenscreens were used. Beautiful location and animation that didn't look bad. The story was excellent; there was always tension lurking so it had me guessing what was going on, which the film then suggested and dismissed. Some interesting philosophical ideas were brought up. The climax had me initially upset, but upon reflection I realized that that was the whole point of the movie, and I had been played like certain characters. The music was not dominate and supported the movie in the right way, playing with tension and creating moods to compliment or contrast what was happening visually.

Entertaining and thought provoking exploration of the consequences of creating humanoids with advanced artificial intelligence. Will they replace humans?

I wasn't too intrigued when I saw the trailer and had skipped the title, but I saw it on a sale out and was curious whether my initial judgement was right.And it was right unfortunately. There isn't much to find here, but beautiful scenery and Oscar Isaac makes a convicable unlikable character, but on the flipside he isn't a convincing scientist or CEO of a big company.The conversations with the robot are dumb. "What's your favourite color?" Sounds like a question a 5 year old would ask.The turing test is messed up to some weird 2.0 version which doesn't make any sense.The CEO only makes female robots because he's a HNG, I guess. He sucks so much at coding that he only makes robots that want to kill him and escape the compound. He often wipes the memories of the robots out of frustration. He also seems to have a lot of non-nerdy and non-geeky hobbies. Shooting pool, Working out, binge-drinking... Oscar Isaac does come off as an unlikable character though, so I have to give credit to that.The robots are pretty dumb. One of them can't even talk.The invited HNG is very bland. He makes a convincing naive person and that's it.On the topic of AI almost all the other movies out there do a far better job; A.I., I-Robot, Blade Runner, Blader Runner 2049, Prometheus, Alien: Covenant, Transcendence, The machine and even Morgan is better than this.The movie seems to be made by people that don't understand A.I.TL:DR version / Synopsis: 2 HNG fail at making Real Doll 2.0
