    Couldn't care enough!
    When a film fails to make you feel the exact emotions it was intended to make you feel, it becomes a significant stumbling block in your experience, I am afraid that is what happened to me in this instance.

    I understood what the writing was attempting to do, what its true aims were, but I couldn't get behind the 'greater' purpose since I had no emotional attachment to any of the characters or their motivations.

    Dan Stevens, on the other hand, I adored since he was charming (as he always is) and a wonderful actor but It has more to do with him as an individual rather than the part he plays in here.

    Enjoyable and thoughtful
    And well done. If you like the character of Data in "Star Trek the Next Generation" you should like this film.

    It's an insightful probe into AI and a possible romantic match-up. This film tells you what not only it would look like, but how it would feel.

    Excellent and convincing performances from our two main actors. It is well paced and not given to any overtly high-strung emotions. I did find the scenes with her visiting her father to be somewhat extraneous and not essential to the overall story - more so the last scene where she is chasing after him in the park.

    Nonetheless enjoyable and perceptive on many angles.

    Powerfull
    Ich bin dein Mensch is a powerfull movie, not just a rom-com. It is more a movie about humanity, and what it means to be human. When I read the synopsis, I thought this would be kinda like the superb movie 'Her'. The latter is more about 'can you fall in love with AI' where this movie is more about 'should you fall in love with AI'? This is shown from Alma's perspective, who deals with grief in many forms and is under stress because of her father's Alzheimer. Although it is not as good as 'Her', this movie certainly hits the themes right and the score is wonferfull. I also loved the Berlin background, since it's familiar to me and it was done with beautiful shots. 7.5/10.

    The gift of imperfection
    We always search for an ideal and perfect partner but we don't realize the opportunities and blessings that imperfection could give us. If you are not vulnerable and don't have shame to share with your partner then how you can build empathy and compassion.

    After watching this sci-fi romantic drama you begin to realize that maybe the greatest humans inventions could make our lives easier but not necessarily better. The idea of the movie plot was brilliant, the quality of acting and directing was satisfying but I'd expect the leading character's career that was analyzing ancient monuments and bridges a connection to the heroine's challenges in modern life.
