I dare anyone to watch and not want to strangle this character Could she be more freaking annoying...

If anything, this movie really makes you think about humanity in an unconventional way. The plot, although not without its flaws, is intriguing and original. I for one enjoyed the ending, although it could have been made more believable with some minor plot devices and addition of some small scenes (read the spoiler reviews if you want to know more).

The main characters were all certainly eye candy, and although their dialogue was a bit stilted at times, all actors did a commendable job. Particularly enjoyed the performance of Steven Strait, which was integral in tipping this film into the territory of a quality watch. No one can play an android with the panache of Michael Fassbender's David, but I think Strait did an admirable job.

You will encounter one of the most annoyingly written characters in Sofie, but if you can get beyond that, this is actually a very solid philosophical sci-fi. Certainly ranks much higher than its current rating of 5.4.

Overall an original and striking film. There are certain scenes where the script is brilliant and it is a film that really makes some interesting points. Flow is good, though some bits seem stilted...like the business which we never really know what it does and never see more than a handful of people in. Despite this, the main actors are good and the twist is excellent and unexpected. I wish they had done the build up and reveal better, and not had much film after the twist was revealed as it would have had greater impact.

But anyway, worth the watch.

I enjoy this movie but his girlfriend character got on my last nerves with the needy attitude and controlling ... if you can look beyond that than the movie is good.

Less than 20minutes in, and I couldn't stand Sofie. Did they have to make the character so selfish and self centred? She spoilt it for me because from then on I was biased by her character and barely concentrated on the rest of the movie objectively.
