Ex Machina (2014)
The sudden 'I Wanna Tear You Apart' duet is a perfect single-scene acquisition: narratively disruptive, visually exact, and frequently searched by viewers.
Ex Machina is a 2014 dance feature film centred on ballroom and social dance. For dancers, it's a chance to see the style performed on screen — the phrasing, partnering, and musicality that the same dances carry onto a real floor.

Nathan and Kyoko’s “Get Down Saturday Night” disco routine
Disco DanceDanced by Oscar Isaac; Sonoya Mizuno
Nathan’s deadpan promise to tear up the dance floor, the red-lit room, and Nathan and Kyoko snapping into perfect synchronization while Caleb watches in disbelief.
The abrupt synchronized disco routine breaks the film’s controlled austerity with rehearsed unison, then turns the pleasure of performance into another display of Nathan’s command over Kyoko and Caleb’s environment.

BuzzFeed identifies the song, characters, performers, synchronized disco routine, and extensive rehearsal with an unnamed choreographer; the choreographer field therefore remains blank.
