5.0
A beautiful and philosophical look at the bounds we make and how we disconnect from one another in pursuit of something less complicated.

I didn't read it but saw the movie and it completely flashed me.
A guy falls in love with an A.I. (no wonder, it is beautifully voiced by Scarlett Johansson). The movie wanders through many ideas of A.I.: self-consciousness, personality, bodyless-ness, parallelism, exponentially growing intelligence ending in singularity, just to name a few.
There is zero action in this movie which makes it outstanding for SF. But the characterization of the main protagonist and his human friends, the loads of details like fashion or computer games make it more than worthwhile.
Best movie of this year, highly recommended for SF fans.
