Review of Her (2013) by Tony1984 — 18 Feb 2017
I wish I could give HER a higher score because it's beautifully produced in the visual sense and Joaquin Phoenix is an outstanding actor but..Samantha's voice just nauseated me, I just couldn't get past it and quit after half an hour.
..I love Cortana with a passion so it's not a disembodied voice I found creepy just HER. Secondly, the old trope of a materially comfortable future but a soulless one is wearisome. People have been lonely since the beginning of time and will always be, so the movie is profiting somewhat off lonely people which is to my mind exploitative.
And lastly, Loneliness is voluntary, if you're happy with yourself than you will attract friends and as a last or even first resort.. if that's where a person is stuck at, get a DOG, man's and woman's best friend.
. or even a cat at a push...
