Watch "Citizen Kane", then read Wikipedia, then watch Mank. You're going to love it.

@mrsettler Thanks for the advice but what exactly should people read on Wiki?

Citizen Kane's page, Screenplay of the Citizen Kane's page, Orson Welles' page, Herman's page. Pretty much everything concerning the movie.

Ex Machina

This move sure was... fine.

A tense drama about being trapped in an isolated space: Been done plenty. A movie about the complex questions regarding ethics and AI: Been done to death. A movie about robots and sexuality: Been done plenty. A movie that tries to make you question the motivations of the characters: Been done plenty. A movie about a feminine character using sexuality to manipulate an unknowing male character (and by extension, the audience): Been done plenty.

Does mixing these elements make anything new, unpredictable, or particularly interesting? No, apparently not, but it sure does seem to trick people into thinking it does.
