Ex Machina (2015)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0470752
8.0, 41,000
INSMODSCUM is puzzled by this movie. It is either very good or very bad. IMHO this isn't really SCI FI, but more of a mix of everything.
Black Mirror (2011)
Thanks Charlie Brooker! I'm gonna have to sit on my hands! |
One of the actors (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1727304) played a robot in an episode of Black Mirror, a brilliant show written by Charlie Brooker. Black Mirror is on the same level as The Wire and Breaking Bad.

Her (2013)
FUCKING WINDOWS! Fucked up MBR (Master Boot Record) probably. |
Another recent technology film that is an overrated, hipster, shite is Her (2013). Her (2013) is also about machines, but it is written by and for idiots.

30%, 2015.05.19
Yes, there are problems with Chappie, but why do 70% of critics hate it?. INSMODSCUM likes Blomkamp, District 9 and Elysium were both entertaining and had a message.
Recall Matt Damon programming in assembly in Elysium; Blomkamp is very good at combining realism and sometimes over-the-top action.
Rotten Tomatoes gives Furious 7 (2015) an 82% and Avengers: Another Fucking Superhero Movie (2015) a 74%.
There's something wrong with these numbers. INSMODSCUM never cared for Rotten Tomatoes, and after this SNAFU you should not either.
TLDR: Black Mirror is like The Wire, see it; you may like Ex Machine (2015), you *should* like Chappie (2015), ignore Rotten Tomatoes .
