Her (2013)


With his new movie her... Jonze creates the splendid anachronism of a movie romance that is laugh-and-cry and warm all over, totally sweet and utterly serious.

This is a probing, inquisitive work of a very high order, although it goes a bit slack in the final third and concludes rather conventionally compared to much that has come before.

Spike Jonze's singular, wryly funny, subtly profound consideration of our relationship to technology - and to each other.

If, like me, you've admired Jonze's ambitions more than you've responded to his results, you may find that Her puts his means and his ends on more equal footing. He shoots for the moon and, this time, hits it.

A sensitive and genuinely curious look at programmed living and the follies of possessive love that unfolds like When Harry Met Skynet

I need a writing service to articulate the love that I have for "Her"... Spike Jonze has done something remarkable with Her. He's created a love story that feels brand new, yet abstractly familiar.


The not-too-distant future of Spike Jonze's her is both utopian and dystopian - a mesmerizing, provocative, and romantic world to soak up.

A screwball surrealist comedy that asks us to laugh at an unconventional romance while also disarming us with the realization that its fantasy scenario isn't too far from our present reality.
