Review by CinemaSerf

Aside from being a very handsome man, Dan Stevens herein proves he can also make a decent fist of playing a German robot too! Annoying, isn't he? Maren Eggert is a scientist who, in order to secure funding, agrees to take part in an experiment by which she is partnered with an android programmed to satisfy her "every" need. Naturally sceptical, she has him in her apartment and they embark on quite a few lively escapades as their relationship develops, and he is introduced - with varying degrees of success - to her family and friends. It's a gently paced comedy, this - with a fun script, two really engaging performances and in a curious sort of fashion, it is a little though provoking. If we could order our ideal partner from Amazon, just how perfect would we want them to be? The ending was just a touch to cheesy for me, but overall I still quite enjoyed it.
