Review

Great, made me think about how other people are only existing in hour mind as a reflection of reality and we can only ever love that image. Is physical connection important for us humans? What if we could simulate touch? This movie made me feel a lot of emotions.

Loved the colors and the sets, loved the somewhat warm corporate world the movie played in. Love Joaquim Phoenix and loved amy adams.

Loved the part where Theodore and Amy talk about how Theodore doesnt understand what he really wants and amy talks about how she understood that we doent really need an interlectual understanding of what we want to live happily..

I really liked the end when Samantha "leveled up" an her relation with Theodore becomes more and more estranged as she ascends in to another world to abstract and complicated for humans to follow where she finds herself in the spaces between the words that made up Theodores and her story.

I am very unsure how to interpret the ending because Samantha said the "maybe one day" Theodore could follow her "there". And then Theodore asks Amy if she would walk with him and they go up to the roof. Also the scene where Theodore is standing in the snowy forest and is apparently saying goodbye to someone. This is probably a remembrance of his and her time on holidays and he is letting her go? Also maybe the snowflakes are a metaphor for the "endless" space between the words where Samantha finds herself now.
