Ex Machina

Director: Alex Garland

Starring: Domhnall Gleeson, Oscar Isaac, Alicia Vikander

Released: March 5

Writer Alex Garland (28 Days Later; Sunshine) makes his directorial debut with this uncanny sci-fi thriller that promises to explore human hubris, empathy and solidarity. Domhnall Gleeson, who’s always conveyed an appealing fragility, is Caleb, a coder who wins a week’s stay at the forest fortress of his enigmatic boss Nathan (Oscar Isaac). There, he meets Ava (Alicia Vikander), a startlingly sophisticated robot who may have her own agenda. The robot effects look amazing, and the mood seems disorienting and claustrophobic.
