The same day I had watched this film, I had watched A.M.I on Netflix (don't watch) and it's the same idea with a smart phone interacting on another level with it's owner and making them do things.
Phil (Adam Devine) is your every day guy, working a steady job, living in a stylish apartment on his own and obsessed with his high tech smart phone, but when his precious phone is accidentally destroyed he purchases a newer model.
While activating his new phone, and skipping through the terms and conditions, he discovers that his phone has a voice of it's own like nothing he has experienced which calls herself "Jexi" (voiced by Rose Byrne).
This movie didn't even reach Australian cinemas which says a little something.. The first half started off great, hilarious even, but then when Phil meets his love interest it kinda gets a little annoying. The love interest comes off more controlling than Jexi, for example who would even demand a date to leave their phone at home? She plays the victim in their arguments, and reverses the blame on to Phil trying to make it look like he's in the wrong. I don't know.. She seems like a toxic character that Phil should run away from.
Overall the film was pretty funny.
