Her

Cast: Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams, Scarlett Johansson(Samantha),Rooney Mara(Catherine)

Director:Spike Jonze    

Genre: Sci-Fi,Romance, Drama

Concept which is different but presentation that is depressing. I personally didnt like the story


You may look forward to:

• Technical aspects. You can see not a very distant future there. How life will be inseparably connected to gadgets
• Acting prowess, notably Joaquin Phoenix. Yes he did well to what was assigned to him. He managed to drive me depressed after the movie, pertaining to his depression in the movie :P
• I must admit, Scarlett Johansson did a fab job. Even though she wasnt physically acting in it, her voice felt not less than the person herself. She feels no less than real. Hats off!
• Amy Adams and Rooney Mara had short supportive role, which were good in their own stands
• The movie has slight touch of humor here and there, keeps you going

What you can sleep over:

The pace of the movie. Its pretty slow. You may survive it if you are intrigued by it

The dampeners you should be aware of:

• This one felt on the similar lines of "Guzaarish". In short, depressing. Yes, it is true...we are all headed to a lifestyle which is lonely. Gadgets, technology are dependencies, undoubtedly and yes may be they are even replacing the regular human touch, and transforming everything online. But we are not bunch of depressed souls. There are many reasons to live fuller and on high notes, even if you live alone in a world with less real acquaintances or companions. 

          Presenting a story which is outright depressing in its soul of it, is just not fair. We dont want to see or know stories of some fella who doesnt enjoy life. We want to watch who can fill us with more life, make us more hopeful, help us cherish life. I strongly detest movies of this kinds

• I couldnt really accept the weird, not very well explained end of the flick.

  

My rating: Story/Presentation: 2/5
                   Technical aspect: 3/5
