4. Her
The second film to be nominated for Best Picture, Her is a look at mankind’s dependency on technology and what it could do to us. Basically, if Skynet wasn’t evil and merciless but caring and sexy.
When a man begins to date his operating system, Samantha, things get complicated as it becomes increasingly more apparent that a human/AI relationship is harder than it sounds. AI has become an integral part of everyday life and seems that it will continue too. Hell, there are days where some of us talk to no one other Siri.
The film takes a painfully realistic look at what life will be like in a very near future and how with AI having its own characteristics and emotions, its likely some could develop feelings for them. A movie that makes you wonder if artificial intelligence is really all that bad.
