Intelligent Questioning About the Nature of Life

Rating: 9/10 (5 February 2018)

This movie sucks you in. The main protagonist, Caleb, travels from his office in his high-tech (Google) company to a remote residence in the mountains where the tech boss (Nathan) lives and works. Gradually, the real world disappears and there's just this amazing house, the rooms, the glass, the three key players: Caleb, Nathan and Ava, the AI Nathan has created. Caleb is there to assess Ava--is she self-aware. Try to go into this movie with no preconceptions and spoiler free, as I did. Don't expect action, don't think this is sci fi in a traditional sense. Critics of the movie say it's slow. Well, I suppose it is, but that just allows the mystery and wonder to unfold.
Excellent movie, well worth watching.
