This is an awkward semi-comedy featuring a guy who loses control of his life to an app. It starts out in an engaging way, and I liked the domineering 'personality' of the app. Unfortunately, the whole thing felt somehow perched, like everyone involved were shooting each other nervous glances as if to say, "this is funny .. right?" I feel like the lead is someone who needs lots of strong supporting actors and I'm not sure that works.
Not recommended.
