When you think you have seen everything about AI movies, Ex Machina arrives and gives a very nice perspective on the matter.

The movie goes quick, not many things happen but they are clever, very well thought. The story is more focused in the moral problems of the human main character rather than in the awe of the creation nor the existencial problem of the AI.

The cast is all great, from Vikander to Mizuno, Glee and great Oscar Isaac.

**Enjoyable, satisfying sci-fi**

Kinda smutty, kinda creepy, kinda evil, thoroughly enjoying.

OK, there's nothing mind shattering but still good fun and a nice pay off imho.

For those complaining it was predictable - if you want something you CANNOT ever predict go watch Predestination https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/206487-predestination

I thought the story was both interesting and believable on some levels. I have no doubt that an AI would eventually turn on a creator, especially since most creators don't think of artificial intelligence as anything other than a tool to use and dispose of. Be careful what you wish for, if you try to create a life through AI, don't be surprised if it has a mind of its own.⭐⭐⭐⭐
