Review of Her (2013) by Filmqueen — 24 Oct 2015

This could have been a really interesting concept, but it's too slow-paced and the relationship between the computer and Theodore is just plain boring. I mean, other than not having a body Samantha seems very human, so it's easy to imagine .

..what if she was a human? In that case this film would be just a terribly boring and long story about a relationship that consist of two person asking each other: "Are you Ok?" *Sigh*"Yeah".

I am not kidding, their conversations mostly look like this or something similar. Also Theodore is a big looser, that should not be a problem, but I can't even feel sorry for him, he is a boring character in my opinion.

However the acting is great, the cinematography and scenery is pretty and the music is good, too. So the whole atmosphere of the film can easily capture the viewer, I understand why some people might like this, but I still think it's overrated.
