Ex Machina movies - Excellent, thought-provoking, fascinating

Given the large amount of television and film dedicated to A.I. I was surprised to find another film that could bring something new to the table. What we have here is a fascinating film which explores the complicated issue of artificial intelligence, and the morals and ethics attached to the idea. Expect the problems presented in this film to occupy current affairs over the next decade.

Ex Machina is a touching story, carried excellently by its two male lead characters and their robot, played with childlike wonder and tingling sexuality by Alicia Vikander.

Yes, there are plenty of other films out there which try to explore the concept of artificial intelligence, but don't be put off. This is no retread of Star Trek's Data or Arnold's Terminator from T2.
Just see it for yourself, you won't be disappointed.

An excellent and thought provoking film.

Review :
The film moves at a good pace throughout getting to the main storyline early on. The most noticeable aspects of the film early on are the location, sets and special affects.

Though the main character, Ava, has an attractive human face it is quite clear from the rest of her body that she is indeed a machine. This is central to the role and storyline, I shall say no more as to why.

Domhnall Gleeson plays 'Caleb' and takes us through the film, leading us along the way to a conclusion that is eventually twisted at the end. Though he is very good in the role he is over shadowed by Oscar Isaac (Nathan) who created Ava, superbly played by Alicia Vikander, who over shadows them both.

I have seen that there are some exciting films being released this year but they will have to go a very long way to better this one.
