Nachdem die Menschheit auf der Erde ausgestorben ist, nimmt ein Roboter in einer geschützten Wiederbesiedlungsanlage, die die Menschheit bewahren soll, einen der über 60.000 menschlichen Embryonen, legt diesen in einen Inkubator und erzieht das 24 Stunden später ausgereifte Kind, als sei es ihr eigenes. Das Mädchen glaubt, dass die Außenwelt unbewohnbar ist und hält sich daher im Inneren der Einrichtung auf. Dort entwickelt sie sich zu einem fröhlichen, intelligenten Teenager. Sie übt Ballett, schaut sich alte Videos von The Tonight Show an, unterzieht sich einer strengen Ausbildung und lernt alles von der Anatomie bis zur Philosophie. Die weitläufige Anlage wurde „vor den Kriegen“ von Menschen entworfen, um die Erde im Falle eines globalen Aussterbens neu zu besiedeln. Nur nachts, wenn Mutter sich mehrere Stunden lang aufladen muss, kann sich das Mädchen ohne Aufsicht durch die Anlage bewegen. (Concorde Filmverleih)

Netflix delivers an Australian post-apocalyptic sci-fi film with robots in the style of Ex Machina and it's a more than enjoyable spectacle that carries a hidden message and demands plenty of attention to the details. Humanity has been destroyed and we follow a robot inside a ship that uses an embryo to create a little girl who is supposed to be a new beginning, but things get complicated when an uninvited guest arrives at the ship. Pleasantly intimate, superbly acted, with a chilling atmosphere that benefits from the viewer's uncertainty of who to trust, and believe me, you won’t know how the film will end until the last moment. I also liked the unexpected twists and turns and the suspense, so a pleasant surprise for me. 70%

Predictable drivel without an idea, which not only did not impress me with anything, but also made no sense. This whole outline of what happened on the planet is too superficial, the droids are total NPCs, the plot doesn't really go anywhere, and the ending is just too stupid to be believable. An extra star for the pretty lead actress, but otherwise it's rubbish.

I liked the idea with the destruction of mankind. The mother seemed especially empathetic and had exemplary skills as a caregiver. The middle of the film drags a little, Swank is terribly unpleasant and her daughter often behaves illogically, but it picks up again in the last half-hour. The effects look pretty good too. Textbook Asimov served up in a rather weak form.

Netflix’s been bombarding its audience with sci-fi pieces, and I’m really glad that there is someone who’s not afraid to produce films no one else would dare to. Even though this particular one is a rather intimate piece, both in the terms of story and actors. I consider it enjoyable, even though watching it once is enough. But as it’s a small-scale sci-fi, I wouldn’t expect anything more.
