Last night's film was 'MORGAN' which was not particularly good but I knew it wouldn't be as the person who 'recommended' it to me said it was sort of alright and not too long, which is hardly a stellar recommendation. However having read its Wiki article I figured I'd give it a watch, as such I went in knowing the exact details of the plot and also the twist, which I honestly think made the film more enjoyable than had I not been privy to this knowledge, as it all made sense as it went along.
Here's the spoiler-free version. It's basically an AI gone a bit wrong film. A team of scientists has been working on a 'new generation' AI with feelings and empathy and stuff, but it's gone wonky and attacked one of its creators/carers by stabbing her repeatedly in the eye when it was told it couldn't go out to play.
RISK ASSESSMENT OFFICER Lee Weathers has been dispatched to take stock of the situation and make a recommendation on the AI's future, and a psych evaluation officer is en route as well.
Then things happen, which are not all good things, as you can imagine. The psych evaluation, for example, does not go well.
Then there are more shenanigans and the film ends.
590/1000 - Above average, but not by much.
Enjoy the film more, with spoilers!

RISK ASSESSMENT OFFICER Lee Weathers is an AI too! Except she's an older generation AI that was developed without empathy and emotions. As such when Morgan goes batshit and starts killing the absolute fuck out of everyone, Lee is basically the only one who can stop her. Once it's nearly just Morgan and Lee left, Morgan gets the better of Lee in a fight and impales her on a pointy tree branch, but instead of finishing her off, shows some degree of compassion and walks away. (It's not explicitly stated but very much implied that Morgan has cottoned onto the fact that Lee is an AI as well.)
Then (offscreen) Lee gets herself off the tree branch, murders the arse out of Morgan, and then kills the remaining two humans in cold blood to leave no witnesses. (We have also learned by now that the programme is specifically to create combat AIs, but the scientists on this programme got a bit wooly and emotional about things.)
The final scene is a debrief sort of affair at 'CORPORATE' where the men in suits ponder over the AI programme, and conclude that the new 'emotion' AI are interesting but not much good for combat, and that the older generation AI are better for this, including Lee, who has performed 'perfectly', cut to an emotionless Lee sat in a cafe and you're like ZOMG SHE'S AN AI TOO! But I'm like, 'Yeah I knew that 'cause I read the Wiki article yesterday'.
So it is a bit dark in that basically everyone dies, including the new emotion AI, and the only survivor is the old combat AI.
It was alright, it passed an hour and a half on, as my granddad use to say, before he died.
