In 2015, screenwriter Alex Garland made his directorial debut with Ex Machina, a sci-fi film that revolves around an Artificial Intelligence that may have achieved true sentience. What a far-out concept! Ex Machina was a modest success, grossing $37.3 million worldwide on a $15 million budget. Over the last 11 years, its reputation has only grown, making it one of the best movies of the 2010s - and one of the weirdest. Watch With Us is a big fan of Ex Machina because it's so odd, which is why you should stream it before it leaves HBO Max at the end of the month.
