This was an interesting movie. An AI test, with the subtext of gender issues, and sexualized robots. Alicia Vikander, Domhnall Gleeson, Sonoya Mizuno, and Oscar Isaac were all very good.
I thought it was a very smart movie that raised many questions. I think one was the sexualization of the AI. The AI having a gender, and a sexy body definitely confused the whole issue and the test of the AI. I think it was interesting how the AI wanted to survive and was willing to do anything to survive, lie, cheat, and kill. And the open ended ending was awesome. To think of some AI wandering around out there doing what it needed to do to survive. Interesting.
I have to admit that I was uncomfortable with the sexualization of the robots. I see it as fetishistic. It kind of makes me squirm. It combines this whole inability of someone to relate to other people with sex, artificial inteligence, kind of confusing the whole issue. I guess it is kind of a meeker version of the Terminator movie.

This blog is a place for me to keep track of all the friggin' movies I go to or see. As the title says, I go to too many movies, but I also rent too many movies too, so some of the reviews will be of dvds that I have rented. Also, I think I will rant about commercials and TV shows that I watch here too. Please click on the Google adsense below. I get a very small amount of money if you do. Thank you!
I am a Yelper!
