Ex Machina

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.

The movie is rated R. It runs for 1 hour 48 minutes.

Woman in Gold

After delivering a story of a very famous woman in 'My Week With Marilyn' in 2011, this time the Director, Simon Curtis, is offering another story of a dignified and determined lady -- not that well-known -- but whose story will still touch our hearts.

Academy Award winner Helen Mirren stars in the incredible story of Maria Altmann, a Jewish refugee who is forced to flee Vienna during World War II.

Decades later, determined to salvage some dignity from her past, Maria has taken on a mission to reclaim a painting the Nazis stole from her family: the famous Lady In Gold, a portrait of her beloved Aunt Adele.

Partnering with an inexperienced but determined young lawyer Ryan Reynolds, Maria embarks on an epic journey for justice 60 years in the making.

The movie is rated PG-13. It runs for 2 hours.
