    So, thriller? Machine tries to turn man against man, but we don't know if the intentions are good?

    Will most likely see this in theaters. Maybe tomorrow?


    Is it based on a book? Just seems like it would be. If so, I'll read it.

    It's an interesting movie that's half an hour too long.

    Saw it last night and loved it. I hope no one gives away the ending. USE SPOILERS, PEOPLE! Excellent acting, terrific direction, a very good script, full frontal, what's not to like? Sure, the plot has essentially been done before. Sure, they borrowed from several previous flicks, including Blade Runner, but it didn't upset me. A very, very pleasant surprise. One of the best science fiction films I've seen in the past year.

    8.75/10

    Agreed. Worth seeing though. I welcomed the subtle humor.

    Saw it at SXSW. I was caught off guard by how funny it was, particularly Oscar Isaac's role, but thought it was really good. Definitely check it out.

    Yeah, as I was watching this, I was thinking this is definitely a Deckard movie but with a Jontro ending, if that makes any sense, lol.

    I think this is one of the best movies I've seen in the last five years. Definitely best movie so far in 2015 that's for sure. Just a beautifully shot film and the director keeps hitting home run after home run.

    Can't wait to see this. I don't care if it's not totally new, but if it's smart, creepy, beautiful, and well-made, I'll hit -- er, I mean, I want to see it.

    The comedy elements- if you don't find a random choreographed dance routine out of nowhere funny, or interpret the help or over the top evil genius character as bad acting or writing etc. I went in with pretty high expectations from all the 9/10 reviews, and still came out pleasantly surprised. So much I liked, not much I didn't. Story, concepts, actors, tense red lighting scenes/sounds, just generally how awesome everything in & out of the compound looked, even cgi which I usually I can't watch, but even that was so perfectly done, she was great. Couldn't take my eyes off her.

    All around one of the best sci fi movies I've seen in a long time. The only way it could have been better, while I was watching it I was imagining if they'd have cast these guys instead:

    or jack from him & triumph's new show, previously 30 rock, conan etc.

    So, they all had a fapathon in the end? Or Fapception, where the whole Movie is just a fap dream sequence?
