Review of Jexi

Jexi (2019)
7/10
Good movie if you can deal with the phone
9 October 2022
It's actually a funny movie. It's well written and thought provoking when you think about how much of our lives are connected to technology in some form or fashion. It gets a little weird at times, especially when it comes to phone sex, but the cast is able to pull it off. Alexandra Shipp is great in the movie and Adam Devine is having a better year than Adam Levine. It was actually a 2019, so it's been lit for a while. It made 9.3 million at the box office.

Phil has a major dependency issue -- he's addicted to his cellphone. He has no friends and his love life is nonexistent. Forced to upgrade to a new phone, Phil soon learns that the latest model comes with Jexi -- an artificial intelligence life coach, virtual assistant and cheerleader. With its help, he begins to get a real life. But as he becomes less dependent on the phone, Jexi starts to morph into a tech nightmare that's determined to keep Phil all to itself.
