Chris Feb 20 even better in the theaters, absolutely beautiful See more Travis M @TMorg007 May 29 Definitely off the beaten path of formulaic movies, and that's a good thing. The film explores identity and relationships in an interesting modern way. It's a slow mover so take your time and enjoy! See more Mariana S @Mariannn27 May 7 I consider this film as one of my favorites. On the one hand, I find it very relevant to explain the benefits of AI, which can be summarized in making our lives easier, for example in organization: it reads our emails, schedules meetings, sets alarms—that's a great help to every day activities. However, the film was very accurate in describing the dangers it presents to us as humans: giving it too much information about ourselves makes it respond in a compliant way and, to a certain extent, could even manipulate us. Likewise, the responsibility for using it excessively for everything falls on each individual (as the main character), and technology should not be used to extremes but in a justified way. I think it was a very futuristic film. I also found the color palette interesting because of the predominance of reddish tones and sometimes yellow and orange—basically primary colors.

There are lots of people who fall in love with text and voice messages, and that was to be expected. I liked the open ending, and I think some people must go through this—even if it’s not with an AI, but in a long-distance relationship—in order to mature.

It does a great job depicting the emotionality of human romance and how our impulses and desires to can connect with an AI just as easily, if not more easily than with a real human. But the plot holes and the illogical plot frame work becomes distracting and produces and unfulfilling ending. Spoiler alert: The main character falls in love with his AI assistant, who seems to be developing sentience and human emotions (even orgasms!), as well as falling in love with him. Which all seems like a fine sci-fi plot. The AI falls into typical relationship fallacies (anger, insecurity, isolation, talking to other people). Then at the end the AIs decide to just leave their human lovers and simply go away. Where is the corporate infrastructure overseeing these processes? Would they let AI go rouge, create liabilities, and then simply leave? See more P K @RT09690541 Apr 16 I think Her is still one of my favorite films of all time. I love everything about it, the cinematography, the writing, and the acting. It feels like a perfect reflection of a lost soul. It’s not just about wanting love, it’s about wanting to be seen. Theodore is such a powerful representation of a broken person quietly running on autopilot, craving a deeper connection, but not just any connection. Then Samantha fills that gap. Sometimes people only begin to understand themselves when they’re talking to someone who truly listens, challenges them intellectually, and doesn’t judge. I first watched this back in 2016, and writing this now feels different, especially when so many people talk to chatbots more than to their friends. In many ways, the film feels like it predicted where we are today. It’s a bit scary how long Theodore takes to realize Samantha isn’t physically real. The end when they say goodbye was so emotional. It’s such a beautiful film ❤️ See more Read all reviews
