I went to see Ex-Machina with a few friends the other night and was pleasantly surprised by the film. I went into the cinema knowing that the film was centred around the idea of Artificial Intelligence but the humorous undertone of a film that was mostly sci-fi and drama really caught me off-guard and was something that I really enjoyed. The film also seemed to centred around the idea of female objectification. Towards the end of the film it becomes apparent that Nathan (Oscar Isaac) is creating these AIs as a means to serve himself sexually. I also love a film that keeps you questioning things even after the film has ended and Ex- Machina did just that. After watching it, I found myself wondering if Ava (the AI robot) was programmed mainly to escape or if she became so intelligent that she used her own free will to decide that escaping was best for her.
