Purchased this blu-ray because it's the first, as far as I know, to have the DTS-X surround sound, the counterpart of Dolby Atmos, even though dts-x software still available for our Marantz SR6010 in March. The story was so-so but picture and surround sound wise, it didn't disappoint me.

Pretty interesting dialog about artificial intelligence and not too far off regarding what can go wrong. Good continuity, intelligent script, sensual, and surprise endings for most of the main characters. Worth watching at least a few times.

This film looks great in 4K with improved resolution and color from its bluray counterpart. The film is also a very interesting watch and apart from that it’s visually phenomenal.

Going forward the impact of this movie is going to shape the way people look at AI-based sci-fi movies. You'll leave this movie wondering just how far away we are from living in such a world. This is what helps define the all-time great sci-fi movies.

This was the first time I've seen this movie, it reminded me of 2001 a space Odyssey. Ava the ex machine was incredible and gave me a good insight insight into the future of artificial intelligence.

I appreciated the lack of the omnipresent unsteady cam utilized in too many movies today. The performances were good and believable. Very thought provoking if you get past many of the glazed over moral issues. The house/facility is awesome. Special effects were seamless.

This is a good movie to watch about the dangers of AI. There's some twists and turns along the way and the ending will have you thinking for a while. The cast is very good and picture and audio are top notch.

Good movie at a low price. However I did not receive a digital code with my copy and couldn't receive one no matter who I contacted. Disappointed with that.

An edgy movie in a section of world media that is starting to be explored by big cinema here in the U.S. I'm not as familiar with anime or much Asian entertainment as it goes (save for the Korean movies here and there), but this movie's execution makes me want to see more.

It's tough to find many films that hold the viewer's attention. This film is a finely crafted movie that keeps your attention. Definitely worth cooking up your favorite microwave bag of popcorn and sitting down for a few hours and being entertained.

Almost like the beginnings of the Blade Runner world, with the creation of replicants! Cool too, because it has 2 actors who later starred in The Force Awakens. Ex Machina is a great thought provoking film for movie fans, and an even for bigger treat for fans of the genre.

Another great film by Writer/ Director Alex Garland. Panned by some Gen-X "reviewers" with short attention spans (not enough explosions or unneeded, excessive special effects). Raises many questions about the ethical problems associated with developing AI. I would like to see a sequal.

Create something that is ultimately stronger or smarter than you, and the ending will come quickly...for YOU that is! Ex Machina is another timely tale of man playing God and succumbing to the forces that he creates. Imagine if God had created people to be toys or worse, slaves?

Classic SciFi

This story reminds me a lot of the classic scifi literature; kind of Ray Bradbury in nature. More complex character driven story than flashy special effects, although the special effects to transform a beautiful actress into a robot are incredibly good. I really enjoy this movie!

A good science fiction movie working as a thriller drama where morality on artificial intelligence research keeps struggling in the head of the main human characters. The minimal scenario hides layers of truth and lies like a mind game as part of the story.

Great movie based off of AI and interactions with human intelligence with one crazy boss. This movie also is one of the first to have the DTS-X audio track included which brings an even greater listening experience to those with an audio receiver capable of decoding.

An excellent meditation on what it means to be alive. The majority of the movie is 3 people in a house (with a 4th, non-speaking, character) but the movie is very engaging and makes you think.
Excellent acting and star turns by the 3 principles.
Highly recommended

I heard a lot of great things about this movie. I have to say it took me a few days to soak it all in but it turned out favorable. The picture was perfect and acting was great. It left me feeling up in the air, but after a few days I understood it. Great movie.

The direction is a bit predictable and the film goes on for a few minutes beyond what should be its conclusion (even though I like the last shot), but this is an intelligent sci-fi that offers great food for thought, an amazing production design and impressive visual effects.

Some say that the moment A.I. becomes as smart as a human, moving beyond the simple processes of say Google maps, it will have the potential to become more intelligent than the sum of humanity. This movie touches on this. An interesting watch.
