Can't take my eyes off "Her" !!!

Rating: 8/10 (25 September 2016)

Science fiction featuring AI and human interaction has always been a trend, and yet none of them were as successfully and beautifully depicted as Her.
The long-disputed issues of whether we should develop self-evolving AI or that should AI be built more humane and have the ability to perceive are once again surfaced in Her, but displayed in a very different way, especially the ending.
The typical ending of this genre should be that AI grow into a point that become too dominant so human must fight against it and bring out the moral lesson that we should be cautious with technical development. However, in Her, the operators themselves chose to leave while people were still indulged in their company. The scene when Samantha said goodbye was so remarkable and heartbreaking, even though she wasn't physical, the emotion was so overwhelming and tangible that makes us almost forget there's actually only ONE person in this relationship.
The story was set in a not-so-distant future, where technology occupies people's time and attention. Theodore(the protagonist) worked as a man to write letters for others, he can easily make up passionate and touching letters, but in reality he's isolated and lonely, which is quite an irony, and that explains why he was so distraught when his ex- wife mocked him for loving a operator.
To sum up, this is by far the best science fiction movie featuring AI, Scarlett Johansson's sultry and enchanting voice will definitely capture your eyes(or should I say your ears?) Seriously, I can't take my eyes off "Her" !
