Review of two film


In the week 14, we watched Ex Machina which is directed by Alex Garland in 2015. The film about a man(Caleb) who work in the internet company and he win the competition champion in the programme competition. He can go to private villa in the mountain with the CEO of company in one week. When he came to there, he notice he have to join a experiment about AI robot. The robot is the 'first AI robot' in the world. But Caleb talk with Ava, he feel Ava like a imprison girl. Caleb fall in love with Ava and decide help Ava escape the 'prison'. Finally, Ava escape the place, but leave the Caleb in the villa. Actually, Ava hope no one knows, she is robot.


The week 15, the film is Sky Captain directed by Kerry Conran in 2004. The film is first  whole green screen film. No one a real scene in the film. The low saturation pictures and color between colorful and black and white. Additionally, the picture of highlight too strong makes people in the dream. The film about sky captain battle with evil robot.  The film style give me a kind of steampunk, this style come from industry revolution times, the aesthetic design inspired by 19th century industrial steam-powered machinery.
To summarize, Sky Captain looks like many characters to act a animation film. The story line of science fiction film too popular quality. It is like american captain, one hero and one beauty to save the world. Finally, evil robot army group is defeated by hero. Compare with this two films, I prefer to Ex Machina, because it is talk about humanity and love that is forever classic theme. The film both of talk about man versus robot. However, Ex Machina is more likely talk about  emotion and relationship between robot and human. Via robot reflect to the dark side of human nature. Moreover, robot via continuous learn human behavior that become a complex AI robot.
