After what seemed like forever, Ex Machina is now up on Netflix.

If you've yet to see what I consider the best movie of 2015, you know what to do.

Edit: I appreciate the stealth mod edit of the title. You make Ava proud.

what region you mean?

It has been on Netflix for AWHILE over here (Brazil) I think

sfedai0 · Oct 20, 2017

Is this the movie where I get to watch a guy dance in synchronization with a girl.

robotrock · Oct 20, 2017

i like the movie but the ending made wtf

Baron von Loathsome · Oct 20, 2017

It's not appearing on US Netflix for me.

At least it's free on Amazon Prime, though.

Grizzlyjin · Oct 20, 2017

For a nanosecond my brain was hoping the Ex Machina comic got adapted without me knowing about it.

But yeah, dope movie. Best usage of a small budget I've seen recently.

Finaj · Oct 20, 2017

I really liked this movie up until the ending, but still very much worth watching

I know it has been up for a while in some regions, but right now it should be available for most regions.

it's called tearing up the fucking dance floor!

Poppy · Oct 20, 2017

thought this movie was just okay, i dont feel like it thoroughly explored its themes much and just kinda ended up being more of a huh than a really impactful cinema experience

i dont think its bad though

Yeah, this seems like the general consensus. It's not a terrible ending per se, but compared to the rest of the movie, it certainly could have been more.

robotrock · Oct 20, 2017

the ending makes the movie

ya'll crazy

kris. · Oct 20, 2017

It's not showing up for me in the US

Zakalwe · Oct 20, 2017

The ending is great, I thought that was the consensus...

Now I understand how you get all the girls.

CaviarMeths · Oct 20, 2017

Wat. It's been on Netflix for a long ass time. Canada, anyway.

Great movie, great ending. Alex Garland is one to watch.

RumbleHumble · Oct 20, 2017

I don't know how else it could've ended. It's a very good ending.

5taquitos · Oct 20, 2017

Wtf am I reading about the ending not being good?

The ending is amazing. It makes the whole movie.

What, you want them to

fall in love and live happily ever after

? Naw.

Santiako · Oct 20, 2017

Not in the UK either.

Maybe mention the region you mean, OP.

This scene is really uncomfortable and hard to watch in context.

I wasn't really a fan of its execution, but I get what it was trying to do. IIRC the reviews were split on the ending. Amazing movie overall, though.

I move around often but my current region is the Mideast and I can see it among the options. Surprised it's not in the UK.

Nah. Isaac's "yeah, and now I'm going to tear up this dance floor" is hilarious.

Goldboy · Oct 21, 2017

Such an amazing movie.

Froxenblade · Oct 21, 2017

It's been on Canadian Netflix for a while. It's a very good movie. Alex Garland is a talented dude. Brings up many ethical questions in a science fiction setting that may well not remain science fiction at some point in our lives.

My thoughts exactly. Fell very short of expectations, but still a fine watch, just one that didnt resonate as expected.

NHarmonic. · Oct 21, 2017

Oscar Isaac is such a hunk.

Movie was great.

The best scene. He handled his

death

pretty well, too.

nomis · Oct 21, 2017

i find people who dislike the ending on account of

believing her actions to be irrational, problematic

she was a lifelong captive given no implicit reason to trust domnhall gleeson

captjohnboyd · Oct 21, 2017

Not on US Netflix. Great movie though

Aizo · Oct 21, 2017

I truly love this film. Great performances by all.

Adam Sadler · Oct 21, 2017

If I had to name my top 3 favorite movies in the last 5 years this movie would easily be the first movie to pop in my head as the number 1 contender. I love just about everything about it.

Incitemaybe · Oct 21, 2017

Well this thread was lame.

State the region please.

Kind of agree. There were weird plotholes, lots of dumb decisions for a lone creator holed up in a secret base on his own, and they advertised it as some super deep questioning of humanity and blurring the lines, where it mostly just skimmed the surface and had a protag that, again, made some questionable decisions.

Also the ending

twist of her leaving him behind was obvious. His "hacked around your system" nonsense... He wasn't supposed to be some kind of super-hacker, IIRC. If he was, one would think they'd have accounted for that when they invited him. And then, after all that, the chopper pilot just picks up a woman that randomly shows up?

I did like the knife sinking scene, at least.

It's actually a word filter. It was implemented as people were using "PSA" a little too liberally.
