Sci-fi masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (14 September 2019)

A very thoughtful and perfectly made movie about artificial intelligence. The storyline and acting are superb, the script is intelligent and engaging, and the slow-burning pace allows time to understand the characters, and the deeper ideas that the film suggests. The characters are very convincing, and the portrayal of the AI in particular is just incredible. The movie conveys profound ideas, without ever labouring to do so, which is a great credit. The filming style is simple and economical, which is refreshing; no shots are wasted. The effects used for of the android AI are stunning. The story itself is also really smart, the pace and tension just right, and with a great ending. Certainly one of the best thoughtful, rather than action-packed, sci-fi of all time.
