Ex Machina Full Movie Reviews
A
excellent piece of SF that takes an idea that may soon be reality and
works it through to a plausible conclusion. Everything about this film
was 'right': the casting, the script, the acting, and the production.
In terms of quality, it reminds me of "2001 A Space Odyssey" with the additional benefit of CGI instead of men in monkey suits.
There is nudity and a sexual element, but to mind the UK BBFC with a 15 certificate got it right. I can guess why the MPAA gave it an R - they did the same to "The King's Speech" because the f word was used non abusively - but in 2015?
Unless you are of the Religious Right, watch it. You are in for a treat.
