At what point this movie got really weird for you?


I just want to know at what point this movie got really weird for you? Just want to have constructive discussion if you don't think it got weird for you then great but I am sure it must have got weird for some people?

The surrogate sex part definitely made it interesting.

Very early on. Theodore and Samantha's connection didn't even have to really get deep and I already felt this really disconcerting, isolating, lonely vibe to the film.

I'd like to say it was the cat strangler phone sex scene, but I found it far too hilarious to really be that weird, so I'd have to go with the moment Theodore and Samantha first talk to one another. I could already sense this attraction from Theodore. Along with this, Samantha was creepily real.

Yes true but for me its was still ok like I know its a fiction movie and I get it that they are trying to show the attachment of Theodore with its OS but It really got weird for me at 2 scenes
1. When Theo had sex with Samantha and I was like WTF. I was going to just stop the movie as I don't know it really made me sad for Theo.
2. When one girl tries to become the body for Samantha so that Theo can feel like he is with real person and after that mess up by that girl and the next follow up scenes.

The most funny part for me was when Samantha tells Theo that she has relationship with hundreds of other people. I laughed too hard and at the same time felt pity for Theo like even OS cheated on him...

LOL Yeah you summed it up XX. It shows how pathetic some people are, with the idea that you can just love an indefinite number of people romantically and it's still supposed to be real.

The only part that was really weird was him freakin jumping around and skipping in public and nobody thinking that was odd. And I disliked the ending, but I guess at least it's realism, showing how women are.

when samantha and theo had sex. that was *beep* awkward

reply

The woman who, during phone sex, got off on wanting to be strangled with a dead cat. That was very weird and awkward, especially only about 5 minutes into the movie.

reply

Even weirder, that woman was Kristen Weig (Bridesmaids) who wanted to be strangled by the dade cat.

reply

What in God's Name is IN this freaking film??

reply

same for me... they could not think about SOMETHING ELSE??? A dead cat??? Really?? Why not putting a weird woman who like to be punch or spit in the face? That's weird but not weird as the dead cat thing

reply

Not really weird, there's a lot weirder movies out there.

The romance, sex, etc.
