Tau

This is another decent time waster from the Netflix library.

A sci-fi thriller in the mold of Cube, this flick has only three characters and takes place almost entirely in one house. It features a strong female lead, a one-dimensional but sufficiently evil baddie, and a naive and somewhat unstable AI modeled after HAL9000.

It has decent writing, slick looks, and enough plot twists to keep it not entirely predictable. Gary Oldman as the voice of Tau really sells the AI’s personality well. I give it 3 out of 5. Worth your time.
