This Trailer is Definitely Cut for a Wide-Release Audience, as it Gives Up Some Backstory about How the Film’s AI was Created by Oscar Isaac’s Character. There’s Nothing Particularly Spoilerish here but, as Always, if you’d Prefer to Go in Relatively Cold, this Trailer Isn’t the One for you.



SYNOPSIS


"Alex Garland, writer of 28 Days Later and Sunshine, makes his directorial debut with the stylish and cerebral thriller, EX MACHINA. Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer at an internet-search giant, wins a competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s brilliant and reclusive CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac).

Upon his arrival, Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing Test — charging him with evaluating the capabilities and ultimately the consciousness, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence. That experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander), a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional intelligence proves more sophisticated –– and more deceptive –– than the two men could have imagined."
