Rating: 7/10 (7 February 2016)

The premise of the movie is realistic with a poetic license. The essence of ai is well portrayed including the disregard for human life and emotions. The answer to the question in the movie 'whether the ai is pretending to feel or actually feeling' is answered vaguely. We can see the ai did 'want to feel', as portrayed by it using human emotions to manipulate to get its way. Whether it will evolve to understand other emotions and value the same things as humans do is left unanswered. However you do question whether the ai thought how it was going to survive after killing its provider. One could say it did have the world's search engine database at its disposal, so it would have seen survival to be no problem. But if it did not, then impulsiveness is another human quality it did have. The practical part of the movie is stretched thin though, brilliant guy designing the ai all by himself, living alone. But it was a movie, not a documentary so that can pass. Nice movie. One time watch. P.S.: i hated the lonely blonde guy character, stupid af.
