Because it sure as hell sounds like a high-budget Ex Machina
It sounds like a crap version of Ex Machina. Or maybe it's just a shitty trailer :-p
I thought Ex Machina was a crap version of good Kubrick film.
And which Kubrick film would that be? I don't recall any ever tackling the same subject matter.
Um, all of them?
I'm having trouble following you. Remember, Ex-Machina is not about robots and AI. It is about how men view women, and how even decent men inevitably see women as the 'other'. Eyes Wide Shut sure wasn't about that.
I don't understand someone who knows film like you ostensibly do making an argument that someone's work can't be heavily influenced by a director unless they choose precisely the same subject matter that director chose.
Influenced in what way? I didn't think of Kubrick at all the first time I saw Ex Machina. If Alex Garland said he was influenced by Kubrick then that is great. Even if you are talking purely about style here, I am not sure I'd agree.
