Interesting approach to existing premise

Rating: 7/10 (17 May 2015)

AI movies are on my favourites list. Its a great and profound topic to address and its more pertinent than ever. Unfortunately this movie glances over that aspect and if you go into this thinking it will go deep into it, you will be disappointed. The movie is much more about humanity and social profiling than AI really, the AI premise is rather flat and you wont get any ground breaking revelations on it. Here is what I think is the flaw in this movie, its not clear what it wants to tell you nor do you take anything away from it, it plays it too safe in my opinion, even though the potential was there.
Having said that, its a beautifully shot film, great acting and nice score. Its a bit slow, so if you are the impatient type this one will drag for you, but if you like environmental movies that have great aesthetic and fell to it, you will enjoy it even on the slower parts. Its definitely worth watching, even if I, Robot is the better AI movie.
***Spoiler*** The ending is weird and makes no sense, which ruined it a bit for me. If they ended it with AVA looking into the sky when she got outside, just like in the story Caleb told "her" earlier, THAT would have made for a much better ending, instead of the illogical one we got.
