    Awesome study on loneliness
    Almost passed this one up. But I'm glad I did not. Excellent story of a very talented but very lonely woman who gets to review a period of time with a robot who is tailored to her every desire. The dialog is priceless and the kindness of the robot is amazing as he attempts to get to know the woman and instigate true love. This movie tells of loneliness, loss, struggle, dreams lost and hopelessness as the woman learns of true love. No questionable content, brief nudity (breasts only) , a few foul words that are appropriate for the scenario they are used. Amazing story that brings up emotions that all of us have toward one another that we may never share. Great cast. I watched it in German with subtitles in English and found it to be the best and original way to see it. I wouldn't do a dubbed one, the feeling is lost. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

    Delightful!
    In some ways, it is a remake of Making Mr. Right with John Malkovich from the 80's, but more thoughtful and less silly. Dan Steven is incredible with his fluent German, his sense of timing, and his relentless portrayal of a wise piece of artificial intelligence. He is very convincing as a robot, yet his nonsappy performance humanizes him in a different manner and creates a strong sense of comfort. His character is warm, intelligent and instantly wise when confronted with the wild and unpredictable activities of the human, whom he is tasked to connect with.

    Overall the film is strong and powerful as a take on how technology is now and soon will be predominant in our lives, and all the considerations we must learn to examine and exercise when choosing how much we want to utilize and interact with the many versions.
