BizzleCast 24: “EX MACHINA” film commentary feat. friend/critic A-A-ron with The Bizzle
from The BizzleCast Podcast by The Bizzle
Gender stereotypes, sexuality, sadism, emotional manipulation, playing God — Alex Garland’s “EX MACHINA” (2015) joins Spike Jonze’s “HER” (2013) as the greatest films about artificial intelligence (A.I.) in a number of years. “EX MACHINA" is a dark and highly compelling parable about trying to make perfect replicants of our imperfect selves, starring Alicia Vikander, Domhnall Gleeson, and the spectacularly brilliant (and psychotic) Oscar Isaac. While drawing from 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY, BLADE RUNNER, THE MATRIX, TERMINATOR and other classic A.I. films, EX MACHINA carves out its own slice of near-future sci-fi voyeurism. Join A-A-ron and The Bizzle in this highly thought-provoking and disturbing film.
