Her (2013) | Ratings & Reviews

"Spike Jonze has a history of injecting emotion and humanity (awkwardly clothed and coiffured as it might be) into his idiosyncratic films. That’s prevented them from being completely in the thrall of their crazy narratives but they have still been dominated by their core wackiness. For the first time with Her, the relationships Jonze brings to the big screen blossom into something bigger than the story and setting around them."

Flicks, Steve NewallFlicks

"What can be said for a movie that's a lot more interesting to think about than watch?"

San Francisco ChronicleSan Francisco Chronicle

"It strikes me as the sort of thing made by someone who could use some actual problems to worry about."

Chicago ReaderChicago Reader

"Dazzling and inventive but a little too cool to fall in love with..."

Daily TelegraphDaily Telegraph

"Spike Jonze's best film to date."

Little White LiesLittle White Lies

"We need more subplots. (Even just one.) Instead we get a life sentence of staring at Phoenix's face..."

Financial TimesFinancial Times

"A sweet-natured and melancholy film, beautifully directed, that manages to be satirical about love in a digital, distracted age without losing its heartfelt quality."

IndependentIndependent

"Singular, wryly funny, subtly profound consideration of our relationship to technology - and to each other."

VarietyVariety

"For all its techno-focus, a very human love story about our need for connection. Strange, witty, honest and curiously comforting."

Total FilmTotal Film

"It’s a tale of lonely souls and literalized online dating, and you assume filmmaker Spike Jonze will characteristically mix high-concept absurdism with heartfelt notions. Unexpectedly, the latter dominates, thanks in no small part to Phoenix’s nuanced, open-book performance."

Time OutTime Out

"This is a movie you want to reach out and caress, about a man who, like everyone else around him in this near future, has retreated from other people into a machine world."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Phoenix is as sweet and soulful as we always suspected he might be."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"Her is a 21st-century love story that perfectly captures the mood of the times and finds new inroads into the exhilaration and heartbreak that have existed since the first “I love you.”"

The DissolveThe Dissolve

"This is a probing, inquisitive work of a very high order, although it goes a bit slack in the final third and concludes rather conventionally compared to much that has come before."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Jonze has made a sweet, smart, silly, serious film for our times, only set in the future."
