Gizmodo Stewart and Yeun, as one might expect, are excellent in the film—they are expressive, vibrant, broken, and joyous. Each gets to show the full scope of human emotion from a wholly unique point of view. And when Love Me is about that love and relationship, it’s at its best.
IGN Stewart and Yeun are equally attuned, as voice actors, to the tragicomedy in every scene. Yeun reaches a place of heartrending despondency as Iam, while Me is arguably the perfect role for Stewart, who – as Me impersonating Deja – spends much of Love Me analyzing her own speech patterns and finding the meaning behind them.
Love Me is a film about deep insecurity and feelings of incompleteness, reflected back to us by mechanical beings who are left listless and adrift for literal eons. As much as its focus is technological, it’s an emotional exploration too – a wry and thoughtful magnification of what life feels like when you lose and re-discover your purpose, or you learn to see yourself through someone else’s eyes.
Variety ** May have some spoilers **
A stunningly constructed if overcomplicated sci-fi fable about how humans put unfair expectations on relationships, Sam and Andy Zuchero's audacious love story is best when its human stars are on-screen.
The Playlist As “Love Me” unfolds, it becomes an exercise to explore how very human emotions affect evolving artificial intelligence beings. Although referring to it as an exercise sounds unfairly cold. The movie is certainly not that. Both Stewart and Yeun bring passion to their characters.
Deadline Love Me is an imaginative film that plays with the concept of a meet-cute between inanimate objects. This film proves that reinventing the wheel isn’t necessary to craft an engaging narrative. By altering the environment, dynamics and subjects, it breathes new life into a familiar trope.
Pajiba ...the movie is emotionally resonant and holds our attention with its charm and excellent acting performances. While the pacing may feel slow and repetitive, the film delivers its message effectively. It is a unique romance story that takes an AI’s perspective, exploring how we function and learn about love, as well as how machines learn to be alive and in love. This reminds us to look inward and ignore the external noise to shape our identity.
Next Best Picture Stewart is fantastic. She’s an actress who already feels like she delivers every line with layers of potent meaning, which helps to bring the reflective character to life. The buoy frequently repeats itself as it delves deeper and deeper into the aspects of human life that it wishes to understand and mimic, for which Stewart is well-equipped. At times, it almost feels like we’re witnessing her practicing her lines using various acting exercises, finding new dimensions and interpretations for each line.
