Old rules, unpopular movies first introduce the plot: The hero Phil is a typical American otaku who refuses to communicate with people and regards his mobile phone as his life. One day, Phil met the heroine Kate on the road, but accidentally broke his mobile phone. Phil's new phone is not equipped with traditional AI such as siri and Alexa. Its artificial intelligence assistant, Jackie, has autonomous consciousness. With the goal of making Phil's life better, Phil will do whatever it takes to urge Phil to return to society. With Jackie's help, Phil's quality of life has greatly improved, and he has also successfully pursued Kate. However, the love between the two made Jackie feel like she was being left out, and it started to mess with Phil in various ways, trying to drag him back to the otaku life that he lived with. How can Phil defeat the omnipotent AI? Find the answer in the video.

In recent years, artificial intelligence-themed movies have been very routine: at first, artificial intelligence is usually an omnipotent good helper, but gradually, it loses control (or it is discovered that it has long been harboring evil intentions), and the protagonist finds that it intends to dominate/destroy Human beings, so they solved a crisis with the aura of the protagonist. At the end of the film, the annihilated artificial intelligence may suddenly wake up to pave the way for the sequel. As for the Hollywood garbage produced by this kind of assembly line, a better screenwriter can write a basket of them a day. The film "Jackie" re-interprets this routine with exaggerated comedy, which can be called a successful deconstruction.

In this film, Jackie, the AI, does not have any ambitions to rule the human race. It is more like a jealous little girlfriend, who actively helps him improve while spouting out the otaku of the protagonist. She lost control at one point because of jealousy, but when things subsided, she chatted with Phil as calmly as a post-breakup ex-girlfriend, even telling him "I've found someone better."

As a typical American comedy, "Jackie" mainly relies on exaggerated expressions to create laughs, and many of its jokes are always greeted by the next three ways. If you're planning to watch this movie with your family, be sure to consider whether parents and children can accept this American comedy-style laugh. Judging by the standards of a comedy movie, this movie is full of laughs, brainstorming, and does not offend the viewer like many American comedies. It can be called a good popcorn movie.
