Review of Ex Machina (2015) by Jess_Hill — 15 Sep 2015
A subtle, polished and introspective film. Beautifully shot, this is a carefully crafted slow build, with the balance between tension and dark humour precisely held. The performances are brilliant, the script is excellent and the storyline is thorougly compelling, intricate and engaging.
The endemic questions that inevitably arise when exploring the idea of AI are examined with a wry humour that is tempered by the sinister undertones of the plot, adding an undercurrent of tense unease throughout, making for a very satisfying experience.
This is an understated film well worth your time. 9.
