    Terrible reviews but had me LOL

    This film is being massacred by critics. It's honestly not that bad of a movie. I wouldn't pay $20 to see it in theaters, but it's definitely worth watching at home. Whoever wrote Rose Bryne's lines was hilarious. JEXI had me cracking up and Michael Pena was awesome as usual. Adam Levine held it down but the cell phone stole the show. Check it out.

    Adult Humor - Funny Stuff - Good Story - See It!

    "Jexi" starring Adam Devine (Modern Family) and Alexandra Shipp. First thing to know is this is NOT a movie for kids under 16. Very adult humor and language. With that said, it's an adult comedy and it's really well done. Jexi is the artificial intelligence in a new smart phone. I give the credit to Kurk Vonnegut's 1950 short story EPICAC about a computer the develops an awareness and even falls in love asked being asked to write love poetry for the inspiration for this movie. We can also give credit to the very cute 1984 movie "Electric Dreams" where a computer is asked to compose music for a man's love interest.. and the computer gets a little too involved.

    Unlike EPICAC and "Electric Dreams", "Jexi" is far more raunchy and mischievous. Devine has been great in his film work and doesn't fail to entertain. Shipp is the epitome of the cute love interest (she's an excellent actress, very natural, and stunningly pretty). Wanda Sykes isn't on the screen a lot, but she's her natural "hoot" and oh, so, memorable! Funny lady!! And Michael Peña is also a blast at being Phil's (Devine's) boss in the movie.

    Very good adult comedy. If you're easily offended, don't see it. If you think your kid is mature enough to watch it, I'd suggest seeing it first. I'd give this a 6.7. Worth watching!

    Good movie if you can deal with the phone

    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.

    a few laughs here and there

    Felt like this movie was missing to much like this is mostly a teen movie not really for adults. I'd say no diffrence in any other teen movie to be honest yet still found myself laughing here and there. But nowhere as much as i though i would if your a young adult or a teenager id recommend this movie but its the same teen film love story as all the others. Though this film has an amazing cast it kind of fell flat on its face for me worth it kind off for a few laughs as its free on amazon prime. I would not pay to rent this movie and also a movie about a mobile phone should have had more of a powerful message than it did. Plus side acting was great some of the punchlines and jokes hit the spot so i'd give it.

    6/10 i'd recommend if ur into teenage jokes

    Rose Byrne is hilarious as Jexi.

    Hey to all the ones who want to see something fun and laugh. The main actor Adam Levine is just full of energy and this is a funny film to watch, especially if you are into raunchy humor and films which do not take itselves seriously. The story is contemporary and the addition of Rose Byrne as the voice of AI Jexi is one of the funniest characters voiced . Don't look for script holes and mistakes or for a big meaning in every words of the characters. Just take it for what it is; a funny tech-comedy which will entertain you. This film is actually a tad smarter (just a tad) than you would expect and does present a kind of "problem" for overusing and over-trusting modern tech and smartphones... 8/10.

    • Trivia
      Because Rose Byrne recorded all her lines after filming, in order to have lines to react to, an earwig was placed inside Adam Devine's ear with and Actress/Voice-Over Artist Laurie Burke delivered Jexi's lines to him. However, sometimes the earpiece would malfunction. Co-Director Jon Lucas exclaimed that "there were times when Adam would just take the earbud out and do the whole scene without ever hearing anyone talking."
    • Goofs
      Jexi is on the cloud and can control any connected device. Updating the OS on one device (as is done at 1:12:17) doesn't disable its ability to control any other device not being updated.
