    • Goofs
      When Tom and Alma visit her father, sister and nephew, they talk about childhood memories from holidays on the island of Rømø, specifically the community of Kongsmark. At the end of the film, when Alma finds Tom, she apparently had taken the ferry from Rostock to Gedser (Falster island), to drive to the island of Lolland, and find him there. Lolland is located in the Baltic Sea, whereas Rømø is located in the North Sea.
    • Quotes

      Alma: Human history is full of supposed improvements whose dire consequences only become clear decades or even centuries later. After my experience with a humanoid robot named Tom, I can say with certainty that a robot designed to replace a husband or wife is one such supposed improvement. There's no doubt that a humanoid robot tailored to individual preferences can not only replace a partner, but can even seem to be the better partner. They fulfill our longings, satisfy our desires and eliminate our feeling of being alone. They make us happy. And what could be wrong with being happy? But are humans really intended to have all their needs met at the push of a button? Is it not our unfulfilled longing, our imagination and our unending pursuit of happiness that are the sources of our humanity? If we allow humanoids as spouses, we will create a society of addicts, gorged and weary from having their needs permanently met and from a constant flow of personal acknowledgement. What impetus would we have to confront conventional individuals, to challenge ourselves, to endure conflicts, to change? It's to be expected that anyone who lives with a humanoid long term will become incapable of sustaining normal human contact. I strongly advise against authorizing humanoids as life partners.

    Tried to do to many things at the same time
    Greetings from Lithuania.

    "Ich bin dein Mensch" (2021) had a nice premise and could have been great. Yet this movie was just OK for me. Maybe it is because its a dramedy, yet it did not work as good drama, nor comedy, nor sci-fi, nor satire. It was just OK in all those things, so at the end of the day this movie was just OK for me - nothing more and nothing else.

    Overall, while it had nice premise and could have been something truly original, at the end of the day this movie wasn't that great. Its not bad for sure and some will enjoy it very much, yet for me it was a movie that tried to make many things at the same time, and eventually did not made great neither of them. Its an OK movie to see it once.
