Ex Machina (anyone seen this movie?) Now with Spoilers.

No one? Go rent it!

I really enjoyed it tool, 
 

Gosh Kami, it's not nice to call someone a tool!  

Kamikaze
I really enjoyed it tool, I watched shortly after watching Chappie, which added to my mindset at the time.
 
Regards the nudity, my comments are in white font below, a little spoilerish. Scroll over to read 
 
Thought the nudity was valid my self and not overdone, making a statement about the objects they were to him, and about his own perversions that became magnified by his solitude.  

I agree. I do think that was the message he was intending.

What's wrong with nuttity?

Watched it last night. It engaged me from the start. It is a slow moving and very quiet movie though which at times bored me a little. But nonetheless it is a captivating movie. This movie does make you think about it afterwards. The dance scene cracked me up. Disco get down! I am still trying to figure why that ending though, unless it was intentional for the shock value that is popular in today's movies. The other obvious ending might have been too 'nice'.

Hi,
 
I'll try to catch this tonite, as I am off tomorrow and Monday.

I bought Ex Machina yesterday. £15 from asda, which is basically full whack for a bluray.
 
I basically go and buy any AI shizzle and have been a fan of this genre since the almighty Bladerunner.
 
Ex Machina did not disappoint. For a so called "low budget" movie, I thought that the portrayal of Ava was effing fantastic.
 
Besides that, I thought the story was good, and the acting, and hence direction was good too. With just three main characters and a couple of support peeps, this movie kept me hooked to the end.
 
Simply a good, if not fantastic movie...

It's the best Sci Fi movie I've seen in several years.

Yeah, it was definitely up there 
 
What about Interstellar?
 
It's a long drawn out film, but on the whole, I enjoyed it 
 
Mad Max: Fury Road was most enjoyable (so long as you like a two hour long car chase...)
 
I also recently enjoyed Predestination too... An excellent movie IMO...

clintmartin
Watched the trailer for Predestination...looks good.

Yeah... A simple film, with a few clever twists and turns...

The nudity didn't bother me, the warning was a courtesy to others with children.
 
The movie was excellent.

My wife and I have been watching Humans, which is an AI based TV series. The acting and effects is not going to blow you away, but it's worth a watch, IMO.
 
Another AI movie that I enjoyed, even though it gets a poor rating on IMDB, is The Machine.
 
I also purchased and watched Automata, with Antonio Banderos (average). I sort of enjoyed it, but was hoping for more action. Again, poor rating on IMDB...

I found it disappointing. I hoped the ending had been completely different. A kind of happy ending. 6/10.

IMO I thought the ending was a brilliant... wrapped up the movie quite nicely - even if it was a little dark.
This is one movie that needs more than one watch to catch all of the details...

Hi,
 
it won't be in our lifetime Bit, I don't think.
 
But it will be at that time, that people will be replaced, and then told they can not reproduce and 1984 is in full force, if not Animal Farm. With some puti______ in charge of course! Or one of those that say they talk to God in the east, and that we're heathens because we don't!
 
Hard to not be cynical about that topic, but yeah ... I'm pretty sure it will come. It will change the face of porn, hey?
 Can you imagine? All that anime from Japan, apparently now being almost real?
 
Some other changes for the future I expect ... literature and film will become the same thing as the viable story telling medium. The problem is that for 100 years no one will consider "Lawrence of Arabia" by David Lean ... a "novel" ... and that means that the terminology will change. You don't need to "see it" to "read it", or vice versa. Both will be the same ... and in some ways, it is possible that the experience will be better, but in the end, the harder and harsher material will fall out, I bet! This means a Marquis de Sade would have no value whatsoever for most folks and would be ignored, as an example! Not to mention many others. Can you imagine Baudelaire and Jean Genet? That ought to be fun ... "Our Lady of Flowers" as a visual ... dang ... most of us will run out of here so fast, screaming!

What I thought about, at the end of the movie was, where is she going to charge her batteries? There was no mention of photovoltaic cells or anything...

clintmartin
I figure she is smart enough to make a charger, but I can she where she may have a need to return in the future. She may need a new arm or something.

well, if the simple task was "find a way out of the maze" (as it was suggested) - then the robot achieved just that, afterwards is irrelevant
