14 Thought-Provoking Sci-Fi Films To Stream On Netflix Right Now
2. Ex Machina
Only once or twice a year does a film get a nomination for Best Screenplay at the Oscars without a Best Picture nomination, but when one does its surely damn well-written. Ex Machina is Alex Garlands fifth science fiction script and arguably his best.
A man wins the chance to go to the secluded house of a genius engineer in order to see if his AI would pass for human. Oscar-winning visual effects bring Ava to life as we, and the protagonist, begin to realize everyone’s endgame.
The film will have you questioning everything throughout and if it’s dissected as it should be, will have you questioning your own reality. Also, it catapulted Alicia Vikander into mainstream Hollywood, so the movie should honestly be at number one just for that!
