Really good

Rating: 8/10 (6 August 2015)

This is the sort of movie I love. A thoughtful SciFi that asks the moral questions about where science is taking us, is great to watch, and delivers a brilliant twist in the tale.
Alicia Vikander steals the show with her portrayal of the android at the heart of the movie. She delivers just the right balance of meekness, coldness, magnetism and ruthlessness. She's ably supported by Domhnall Gleeson who plays the computer geek that falls for her.
The pace of the movie is slow but that's OK. It's set in a purpose built villa in the middle of an isolated forest. This create an intense atmosphere, focusing on a handful of characters in close quarters over the course of a few days, and the changing relationships between them.
It's really good.
