Brilliant filmmaking! Masterpiece.

Rating: 10/10 (6 May 2019)

Science fiction, drama, romance set in the near future. The first time I saw "Her", 2013, I was highly impressed. I'm a knowledgeable experienced cinema enthusiast who is not easily impressed. Director, writer Spike Lee Jonze displays impressive filmmaking skills here, with his writing and directing. This is a most thoughtful, intelligent, perspective, sensitive, mature and insightful film which explores the honest, mature nature of human relationships and modern, disconcerting digital technology which attempts to replicate human emotions and relationships. "Her" is a serious, mature meditation about human relationships and modern 21st century digital technology. This kind of film requires intelligence and emotional maturity from it's audience. "Her" is a difficult film at times to appreciate and understand. Set in the near future where digital technology has become quite pervasive in human lives. As a lifelong intelligent, science minded technology enthusiast, "Her" presents an unnatural, disconcerting, romantic relationship between a complex, intelligent, sophisticated computer operating system , masquerading as a real female human being with emotions and a mature man about to finalize his divorce with a woman who represents a childhood friend. They have unfortunately grown apart. Highly recommend film!
