After the first episode of Her, many people thought that the show was going to be a commentary on technology and how it’s changing our lives.
Many critics have been praising Her for its ability to comment on technology and the way it has changed our lives. However, some people have said that they didn’t feel that this was what the show was trying to do. The series is a fictional story, so there are some elements of the show that aren’t based in reality. It also seems like many people have forgotten about how much of an impact technology has had on their own lives in recent years.
What is Her about?
Her is a science fiction television series set in Los Angeles in 2021. It follows Theodore Twombly (played by actor Joaquin Phoenix), who works as a writer for BeautifulHandwrittenLetters.com and falls in love with his operating system Samantha (voiced by Scarlett Johansson). It also stars Amy Adams as Amy, Theodore’s ex-wife, and Rooney Mara as his best friend and co-worker at BeautifulHandwrittenLetters.com.
What has Her got to say about technology?
Throughout all three episodes of Her, Theodore interacts with Samantha through various technologies such as his computer screen or phone calls. In fact, Theodore spends most of his time talking to Samantha rather than interacting with other humans.
Theodore doesn’t even talk to other humans until after he’s already begun dating Samantha. He only talks to her because she sends him emails asking him questions or he sends her messages asking her out on dates.
This is shown throughout all three episodes when Theo leaves his apartment only twice—once when he goes jogging at night and once when he meets Amy for lunch at an outdoor cafe.
