Featured review
Watched on Netflix randomly, found myself laughing most of the time.
Never knew anything about this movie prior so gave it a shot. Damn, this movie is geniusly funny, and I usually have resistance to comedy films. I didn't predict a random watch on a weekday night would make my week.
Story is as simple as it gets, guy is addicted to his phone, his new phone forces him into a new routine, he goes with it, adventures happen, and well..thats the plot.
This movie struck me hard, as a person who is making efforts to reduce my phone usage. It felt relevant, as there is a lot to life if I look beyond the phone as it cannot make me happy alone.
That being said, the humor is top notch, I am a hidden fan of adult like comedy and Jexi has mastered that craft. I am happy to deem this movie was one of my top favorites due to its humor alone.

Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBecause 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."
- GoofsJexi 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.
- Crazy creditsDuring the first minute of the end credits, we see a brief montage of Phil's old boss Kai getting a new phone and getting to know Jexi the same way Phil did.
