Big fan of long-form science fiction. Bladerunner 2049 is fantastic, as is Stalker by Tarkovsky.

Tarkovsky in particular has brilliant works.

If you haven't seen it, Ex Machina (2014) fits the vibe of your list. It's one of my favorites.

I've seen it. I enjoyed it very much.

I picked Her for my A.I. entry because it was so much simpler, more understated, and close to our everyday experiences.

I also skipped Primer (2004) because I steered clear of time travel.
