Hell or High Water (Movie, 2016)

It's about two smart bank robbing brothers, well one of them is smart (Chris Pine) the other is crazy but loyal, and the Marshall (Jeff Bridges) who determined to hunt them down before he retires. A very strong film with fine casting and acting.

Transcendence (Movie, 2014)

Transcendence is focused on the love of a husband and wife, and their journey with very strange happenings based in science fiction.  I think we could actually learn a little from this, the development of a sentient computer, the ultimate in artificial intelligence. 

Dr. Will Caster: "For one hundred and thirty thousand years, our capacity to reason has remained unchanged. The combined intellect of the neuroscientists, mathematicians and engineers pales in comparison to the most basic A.I. Once online, a sentient machine will quickly overcome the limits of biology; in a short time, its analytic power will become greater than the collective intelligence of every person born in the history of the world. Some scientists refer to this as the Singularity. I call it Transcendence."

After Dr. Caster's death, Evelyn and Max came up with an interesting alternate solution that involves connecting Dr. Caster's consciousness to the quantum computer. That will set the stage for what I found to be an intriguing science fiction film. That surely made me pleasantly surprised.
