Why I dint like 'HER' ?

'Her' the movie has been heaped tremendous praise by critics worldwide, Oscar nominations, 94% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Indeed its is a great film making effort which aces on all aspects the story line, screenplay and the performances to some extent. But, Her is one rare film which doesn't work even after each of its constituent element being top notch. The main reason for that is its theme, which sadly for me was pathetic.

It may well be a subjective thing but Her was a depressing and dull movie nevertheless, which makes a caricature out of the entire human race who fail terribly to handle their emotions. They get their personal letters written from a hired agency, what shit!! I was okay with the idea of the the protagonist falling in love with a voice, which is a virtual entity devoid of a body, but the director eventually shows that every single human on Earth is in a relationship with their OSes which was a highly demeaning thought.

Her is a movie which shouts for your attention and cries that its a sentimental movie. The lead actor plays his part well, but after a certain time you begin to loath his zombie like style of walking and talking and would want to rush from the nearest exit just to stay away from his screen presence. The only saving grace in the movie was the protagonist's relationship with his friend. Three quarters in the movie, I wished that the director to show an eventual romantic relationship between them just to induce the idea that humans have a ray of hope left in their lives and they don't need to fall prey to the machines in the longer run even for the purest emotion of love, but sadly the director shies away from the same and ends the movie on an ever depressing note of dejection, rejection and eternal sadness.
