Ex Machina Ratings & Reviews
- Varun3d agoWatching this after 8 years and it’s even better on a rewatch. Every dialogue is so meticulously chosen, providing both serious philosophical reflection as well as punchy humour. The visual and auditory aesthetics of this movie are really well done, it’s sublime. And every actor did an absolutely brilliant job, from Oscar Isaac’s charisma to Domhnall Gleeson‘s unraveling and Alicia Vikander’s robotic display that almost borders human emotions. I think this movie will continue to remain timeless.
- Michael SurberApril 12, 2026A decent watch but it left me feeling like it could have been so much more than was delivered. AV was perfect in the role but she needed more to deliver a great performance. Too slim a cast hurt this one but of course, that's the design.
- Михаил ЕфимовApril 2, 2026If u love it, ai - u just need watch it. Human feelings bonus
- JimmyJanuary 27, 2025Pretty good. Completely possible to fall in love with AI. The billionaire with no gun? Completely unrealistic...comon!
- aniyah938March 17, 2026Good plot
- BlahaMarch 15, 2026Good movie, a little slow in the beginning and could use a more complete ending but good.

- 84d59March 2, 2026Thought provoking movie. I won’t get into details because then it’ll be a spoiler.
- LivewireAdminFebruary 3, 2026if ChatGPT looked like Alicia Vikander, I'd fold too
- Siggi BjarnasonJanuary 31, 2026Too many plotholes and premise that is too far fetched
- NickyjamesOctober 5, 2025The movie that put A24 on the map. It's so good too as well as expertly directed. Tense, Sexy, Scary and even cathartic. What would you have done in his shoes?
- frankpanduhJanuary 25, 2026Rad cautionary tale!
- drunkllamajrMarch 17, 2025It’s good!
- makdelartOctober 28, 2025I love Alicia Vikander even in AI version.
