Review of Her

Her (2013)
6/10
Overhyped but worth a watch!
27 December 2020
This movie certainly has an interesting concept which makes you think, but the story never really goes beyond its original premise and expands on it. Maybe it's because I've seen too much other tv shows and movies with similar concepts but I found this movie to be ok and watchable, but also forgettable. The characters were likeable enough but I feel like the writing could have been sharper in parts. The premise is that a guy falls in love with his IOS, the problem is that before we can really understand the problems this presents for him as individual and in society, it becomes normalised and everyone seems to be in relationships with their IOS. The concept of the IOS growing beyond its hardware was interesting but not fully explored to its potential to peak enough curiosity or interest. Overall I'd say it's worth a watch but not as brilliant as many people make it out to be.
