Inebriated Cinephiles

This week, we’re stepping into the glass-and-concrete mind palace of Ex Machina—Alex Garland’s sleek, unsettling meditation on artificial intelligence, manipulation, and what it really means to be human. With Domhnall Gleeson caught between genius and madness, Alicia Vikander delivering a quietly haunting performance, and Oscar Isaac doing… whatever Oscar Isaac is doing, this one simmers with tension from front to back. Pour something clean and precise—maybe a minimalist gin cocktail—and join us as we explore consciousness, control, and the dangers of thinking you’re the smartest person in the room.
