...this comes to another level.

This has to be the dumbest, most idiotic movie i've seen (out of 1,500 aprox). This thing makes "Commando" look like a Bresson or Tarkovsky movie. Are there really people this dumb and desperate? I mean, people who need a machine to feel "loved" or love. My goodness. I just cannot believe this movie exists, in the first place.

Methinks, this movie is just exactly the opposite of what love means. It's about a bloody computer programme/machine, and some fools out there believe this truly is a romantic story?

The movie "Idiocracy" was just a real documentary of this (strange) era.

Yes, there are people so afraid or disconnected that they couldnt possibly love anything that has a mind of its own, because anything with a mind of it's own might reject or displease them.

Most such persons devote themselves to porn, but I suppose one might fall for a talking computer program.

The film’s premise is interesting but not enough to save it, ultimately, from becoming boring. Also, I don’t like Scarjo’s raspy voice, her AI character’s neediness or Theo’s sad sack nature. The movie’s pacing was also too slow for my taste.
