Original and emotional drama! 7/10

Rating: 7/10 (29 June 2014)

Review: This is quite a deep drama about a man who has just broken up with his girlfriend and ends up falling for his operating system, Samantha. For a movie that is mainly based on Joaquin Phoenix talking to a computer, it is very well written and you can't help but feeling emotional about this very weird relationship between a normal human being and a computer. I wouldn't be surprised if someone is out there now, trying to make a computer like this, because we already have gadgets that adapt to there owners emotions and everyday life's. It's a very original movie which has excellent performances from the whole cast, especially Phoenix for making this movie believable. The only problem that I found with the film was that I struggled to stay awake because of its slow pace and the fact that it's based around emotion and dialogue, more than actions, but that's not to say that it a badly made film. You just have to be in the right mood to watch it. Enjoyable!
Round-Up: Joaquin smashed this role to pieces. It must have been hard for him to take on this project because it's totally based around 1 character trying to get his life back together after splitting from his girlfriend, so emotions really did play a big part. His unique style of acting suited this unique movie and I couldn't see anyone else playing in this role. Amy Adams was a great addition to the project, and she has shown another side to her great acting skills. I've always thought that Scarlett Johannson had a sexy and unique voice, which totally worked as the operating system, and I liked the way that she also brought emotion to her speaking role. I even liked the swearing character in the game, which cracked me up, so in all, it's a movie to watch.
Budget: $23million Worldwide Gross: $47.5million
I recommend this movie to people who are into there deep dramas about a man whose going through a divorce and ends up falling the voice behind his operating system. 7/10
