Still recovering.

Rating: 9/10 (19 January 2014)

Her is simply one of the finest movies I have seen this year. It is romantic, sympathetic and touching. It has a very unique story and a brilliant display of act. It was one of the highly anticipated movies of 2013 and boy was I impressed. I have been let down by a lot of movies this year but this one really stood up to its reputation. The trailer seemed fantastic and when I finally sat down to watch this movie, I was sucked into its beauty right from the word go. Her is excellent in its own way. It has a world full of people who are mesmerized by the technology they live in. I liked the way they didn't press way too much into bragging about how advanced the technology was. Heck, it seemed very normal as if it was portraying how things would look like in the very near future.
Joaquin Phoenix was really really impressive with his acting given that he had to act all by himself throughout the movie. His emotions really cracked me up and I was lost in my world in around half an hour. His depth in his character truly is astonishing.
If you thought Tom Hardy did an amazing job in The Dark Knight Rises giving expressions only with his eyes, wait and watch Scarlett Johannson in Her. She pulled off something incredible just with her voice. You could just feel her presence on screen, it was so powerful.
It is a very emotional and powerful movie with a near perfect end that deserves a lot of attention. Overall, Her is a great movie that will be remembered for a long time. It will be the Titanic of our era.
