Maailman suurimmassa verkkoyhtiössä työskentelevä koodaaja Caleb (Domhnall Gleeson) voittaa työpaikan järjestämässä arvonnassa mahdollisuuden viettää viikko yhtiön nerokkaan mutta erittäin salaperäisen toimitusjohtajan Nathanin (Oscar Isaac) seurassa. Saavuttuaan pomonsa tyylikkääseen ja huipputekniikalla varustettuun vuoristomajaan hän saa kuulla, että vierailulla on toinenkin tarkoitus. Caleb pääsee tutustumaan Nathanin salaiseen projektiin, maailman ensimmäiseen todelliseen tekoälyyn, joka asuu kauniin robottitytön ruumiissa (ruotsalainen Alicia Vikander). (Finnkino)

Pakko saada aikaan tiheää filosofista draamaa, jotta elokuva olisi jostain kotoisin, lopputulos kuitenkin liian pinnallinen ja lisäksi melko ennalta-arvattava. Odotin pohdintaa täydellisen tekoälyn luomisen vaaroista, mutta Garland ei selvästikään ole Bergman, joten sain sen sijaan muutaman sataan kertaan kierrätetyn lainauksen.

As a matter of fact, the premise is pretty simple and builds on the psychology of two characters and one android. It is nice that films like this one get to be filmed these days, but the more of them there is, the more critical I am towards them and here everything stands and falls by the premise, which is not bad, but it is a base for a rather small-scale film. At least the ending made everything pretty clear.

Ex Machina is a sensitive and engaging depiction of artificial intelligence shrouded in mystery with a pleasant sci-fi feel. The actress playing the female android is great. But the surprising twist and the way it is used dramatically proves that screenwriter and director Alex Garland might not be as clever as his brilliant male heroes.

Ex Machina doesn’t bring anything groundbreaking, untraditional or shocking to the table, but the way it gets to its (non-revolutionary) outcome is so convincing that I was enchanted by Garland and I even considered giving him five stars. The script is very smart, it confuses the viewer with a variety of frantic possibilities for the plot to move forward (that they have to figure out together with, Caleb, the protagonist), only to take the less crazy and more logical path. The viewer is basically in the skin of Caleb and the ending feels like a devastating revelation. Whenever I thought that the script was getting stupid, after a couple of minutes it became clear that what was stupid was the behaviour of one of the characters, and the script was very well aware of that stupidity. Ex Machina is sci-fi in the tradition of the best representatives of the film and literary genre. The soundtrack and the design of the interiors and exteriors also deserve special praise.

Clear evidence that electronics labeled smart are a potential threat. That’s why I decided to disconnect my smart washing machine. I'll miss the quiet rustling of my dirty laundry, but what wouldn't a man do for safety. I also unplugged my computer because it was suspiciously overheating while playing this movie, and my monitor because it was flickering suspiciously. I'm glad I caught it so early, no one will make a fool of me!
