Ex Machina would have been much better if Gleeson's character ended up as the AI being tested. Machine uprising has been done to death.
Just finished watching Netflix reasonably new series SPACE FORCE with Steve Carell As per the reviews not funny and I resent Steve Carell pretending he produced THE OFFICE THE OFFICE (UK) was / is a masterpiece by Ricky Gervais (not exactly my style of a comedy) completely stuffed up by Steve Carell Best joke - S01 Ep09 towards the end To make it a winner US should stop producing SPACE FORCE and hand it over to Ricky Gervais. Compensation for stuffing up THE OFFICE Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
As far as sci-fi films go, I'd recommend A Quiet Place, starring Emily Blunt. A Quiet Place II is out now in theaters (also on Amazon Prime for new releases) which I have yet to watch, but planning on it, soon. There's something about the film though that I didn't like; there was a predictability about it perhaps, but the tension/suspense is very good. Imagine having to live the rest of your life in complete and utter silence, in order to stay alive. I'd say it borders on horror, so be prepared for some jump scares.

It's not out, yet, and it may even be rubbish (I highly doubt it, though), but I am going to recommend "Dune"... only so that more people go to the box-office to watch it, and thereby ensure that the 2nd half is made - which bizarrely isn't yet guaranteed!!!

I've just started watching the HBO series The Last of Us, and it's pretty good so far, but a cross between sci-fi and horror. The cosmetic creations of the monsters are next level incredible (frightening), and the plot is a decent twist on what life is like in 2023 for a small group of survivors, after a deadly disease runs rampant across the globe. I'm wondering if space aliens are involved, because the disease sounds other worldly. It's pretty violent, anxiety-ridden, stress-inducing, and quite depressing, but it seems fitting considering the circumstances. The only thing that bugs me is no one is carrying a water bottle or thermos of water or anything. That's not realistic. You'd die of dehydration, if anything, but I guess we're not supposed to notice these trivial details. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
