A Film like no other...

Rating: 7/10 (21 October 2019)

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand 'Ex Machina', but it certainly would help! No, it's not that bad. If you can wrap your head around all the technical and scientific terminology, this is actually quite an easy to follow film.
From the opening scene, the one thing that grabbed me, was the stunning cinematography. Now throw in awesome visuals, an incredible script and great dialogue, and excellent actors, and you have a film like no other. It did give me a sense of '2001: A Space Odyssey' feel - with a robot, or computer, becoming self-absorbed with thinking ability, and ultimately evil. The actors did a great job in selling the authenticity of the probabilities to me. Is this what the future holds? One can only speculate, and hope it doesn't come to this. Job well done, Alex Garland.
