Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
A movie that's neither ostentatious nor superficial.
"The Heart Machine" neatly expresses anxieties about love in an age when technology has reshaped mating habits and urban existence.
The Heart Machine rides on the low-key beauty and charm of its stars, and their easy rapport. They are believable and engaging, even as the narrative itself loses steam.
Its concerns are deeper, and more richly psychological, than merely trendy probings of the zeitgeist.
