The Next Great Si-Fi Thriller

Rating: 9/10 (6 January 2016)

This film absolutely blew me away in every way imaginable. As it did something most other Si-Fi films don't, and that's interest. I was interested in what was going on, that I as emotional along with the characters. This film also has many turns that made it unpredictable, which is rare nowadays. The performances were through the roof as each and every actor and actress involved seems to each have talent and bright careers ahead of them. Domhnall Gleeson, Oscar Isaac, and Alicia Vikander do a marvelous job. But I must talk about Alicia Vikander and the stunning way they made her look. No way does she look fake in any shape of form. I totally believe she could actually have existed in our world. Usually a emotionless performance wouldn't fly well with me, but in this case, it makes sense. Not that Vikander is totally emotionless but is more subtle in her acting. But a job well done by the costume designers, and any one else involved in creating this beautiful AI. Played brilliantly by Alicia Vikander. The negatives however do exist, as one on particular stands out, and that's the ending. I won't spoil anything, but it certainly left me scratching my head in confusion and until I understand what the heck happened and the reason for it, I will say I don't particularly care for the ending. Other then that this is totally worth seeing, buy it on Blue Ray and see if for yourself. Now to grade: Acting: A Special Effects: A+ Costumes: A+ Story: B Music: B- Overall: A-
