On the surface, its about a man beginning a relationship with an OS voice modulator. Her is about something much deeper though; our unnerving reliance on technology that continues to grow, the fear of direct contact in relationships, and a first-hand look at some possible directions the world is heading. Joaquin Phoenix does a fantastic job playing Theodore Twombly, but the true effectiveness of the film falls on Scarlett Johansson, who has to act out a calming, relaxing, and enchanting voice that can convince viewers into believing that an introverted and reclusive man could actually fall in love with a voice. Phoenix and Johansson then have to maintain conversations that feel real and natural despite being nowhere near each other. And then there are some unforgettably uncomfortable scenes most notably one involving a surrogate for sexual stimulation that add further intrigue into this stunningly near possible future Spike Jonze had shown us. Not only is Her a thought provoking and intelligently relevant watch, but no other 2013 film sticks with you like it. Do you agree or disagree? Feel free to post your own rankings below!
