The slow pacing will turn off many, but the story and implications of the subject matter fascinated me so much that I watched it a second time, this time through the eyes of knowing what was going to happen.

I kind of get that many here likes this, but on the other hand I don't. I didn't feel the romance between McGregor and Seydoux at all (in other Doremus' movies it has been the opposite). Also the scifi / AI aspect didn't offer anything we haven't seen in the past years and many of those other movies have done it with deeper results. Of course everyone has their own opinion, but I can't say with straight face that this one could compete with Ex Machina, Her, Westworld, Upgrade etc. on quality. Then there are the songs, ok couple of them hits the spot, but mr. Doremus has the habit to put waaaay too many on his films, and often they can even ruin the mood. Editing also hurt the eyes few times. All in all I think it's very average, I would rather watch Doremus' Equals, that made me feel at least something.

Beautifull, captivating and a true love story dealing with the human condition and what it is to be alive, lonely and love.

First off the movie is long and slow but it's gorgeous and thoughtful and posits a number of ideas related to AI and human/machine relationships once we've figured out how to surpass the uncanny valley and create unmistakably human like androids. How will they feel? Will they love, can we love them? What is love anyway? Both Ewan Macgregor and Lea Seydoux are stellar as they explore love, jealousy and loss between human and sentient machine. If you're patient and thoughtful, a very rewarding film.

This movie is absolutely worth watching, probably more than once. Excellent story. Excellent performances. Just a beautifully done film.
