Ex Machina (2015)

Continuity mistake: After signing the non-disclosure agreement, Caleb drops the pen on the right of the pad on the desk. In the next shot the pen is almost in the center of the pad. (00:10:10)

Continuity mistake: The last power outage resulted in all the facility's doors being locked open. But in the final scene, Caleb gets locked inside.

Trivia: Adjusted for inflation, Ex Machina is the lowest-budgeted winner of the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects in history. In 2019, its budget comes to around $16 million, with the closest equivalent being the $41 million of Cocoon (1985).

Ava: Would you like to know how old I am?
Caleb: Sure.
Ava: I'm one.
Caleb: One what? One year or one day?
Ava: One.

Caleb: Oh, man. She's fascinating. When you talk to her, you're just... through the looking glass.
Nathan: Through the looking glass? Wow. You're good with words, Caleb. You're quotable.
Caleb: Actually that's someone else's quote.

Nathan: You know, I wrote down that other line you came up with. The one about how if I've invented a machine with consciousness, I'm not a man, I'm a God.
Caleb: I don't think that's exactly what I.
Nathan: I just thought, "Fuck, man, that is so good." When we get to tell the story, you know? I turned to Caleb and he looked up at me and he said, "You're not a man, you're a God."
Caleb: Yeah, but I didn't say that.

Question: SPOILER If, by the end of the movie, the facility was reprogrammed to have all doors unlocked on a power failure - and there was a sudden power failure when Domhnall inserted the card into the computer terminal... Why did he remain locked within? Shouldn't he be set free by the programming change he freed Ava with?
