I'm a HUGE fan of Sci-fi, John Varley, Isaac Asimov, etc. and there's a simple set of rules for robots and AI. (If you don't know, I recommend looking it up before watching. ) I seldom find a movie that makes me think, or has the GUTS to bend or break the rules AND is ABLE to FOLLOW THROUGH with their decision without making a flop!
Truly when I first started watching this movie, say the first 20 minutes or so, I sat here thinking "ok, what's this going to be? Another Blade Runner clone? Why don't they do something cool like cast Lady GaGa? She's BORN for a role like that!" Then things got interesting...
This movie opens with a sylph-like girl kidnapped and put through some sort of a medical experiment/ implant, and then thrown in a cell with a Hannibal Lecter-like face mask on and 2 others with her. The 3 break out, and after events, she finds she's in the house of a brilliant, handsome, terribly cruel scientist who's been doing experiments with AI to "better humanity, " as is the excuse of all sociopaths and psychopaths like Hitler. However, his house is run by an AI named Tau, who she does MENSA- like brain tests with and as she does so and seems to have a bit of fun doing so, she seems to get through to both Tau & Alex, the scientist... but not all is as it seems.
I HATE spoilers, so I won't give any away, but I've seen so many movies, I never thought they could evoke in me the feelings that my books do, but I'll admit - I was wiping away tears multiple times! This movie seriously hits you in the feels!!! The people giving this such low reviews must be dead inside, or hate sci-fi, and shouldn't have watched this in the first place!
