Ex Machina: Leaving Thursday, May 14th

Watch Trailer Director: Alex Garland
Writer(s): Alex Garland
Cast: Alicia Vikander, Domhnall Gleeson, Oscar Isaac

Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer at an internet-search giant, wins a competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s brilliant and reclusive CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac). Upon his arrival, Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing Test—charging him with evaluating the capabilities, and ultimately the consciousness, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence. That experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander), a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional intelligence proves more sophisticated, seductive––and more deceptive––than the two men could have imagined.

“Shrewdly imagined and persuasively made, ‘Ex Machina’ is a spooky piece of speculative fiction that’s completely plausible, capable of both thinking big thoughts and providing pulp thrills.” – Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times

“I know, I know. You’ve seen all this A.I. stuff before. But never like this. Garland is hot for ethical shop talk on what defines humanity or lack of same.” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

“‘Ex Machina’ shows there’s still life left in tales of artificial intelligence.” – Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News
