Critics Consensus

It's hard to tell whether the lack of laughs in Jexi is a bug or a feature, but this AI rom-com is sorely in need of an OS update.

Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 02/12/2020
Workaholics' Adam DeVine and the disembodied voice of Rose Byrne are wonderfully puerile fun in this sweet but dirty-minded rom-com. Go to Full Review Beatrice Loayza AV Club 10/14/2019

Surely, bland cultural insights can't defeat a film whose main attraction is the promise of stupid, raunchy fun? Reader, Jexi fails even at that... Go to Full Review Andrew Lapin NPR 10/14/2019
The stranded DeVine, for all his goofy charms as an actor, quickly exhausts our patience; he's in nearly every frame of this movie, and his screen partner is a phone, which means a hell of a lot of mugging for the camera. Go to Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut 08/20/2022
3/5
What makes this comedy mildly, and even unexpectedly, enjoyable is the voice work of Rose Byrne, who voices the virtual assistant, Jexi. Her comic delivery, while still robotic, is full of well-timed gems. Go to Full Review Salome Gonstad Comic Years 08/05/2021
If you go into this movie knowing it's a sometimes puerile romcom about embracing technology and some of the downsides to it, then you'll enjoy it more. Or at all. Go to Full Review Laura Hindley Mediaversity Reviews 05/13/2021

The entire premise of Jexi, that a broken man needs to be fixed by a woman, has no place in modern-day filmmaking. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

11/10/2019 This silly little comedy is shallow, predictable, cussy, ridiculous, and kind of scary. But at least it's all that in an entertaining kind of way. See more 11/08/2019 This movie was hilarious... My mother, sister and I laughed almost nonstop. It's definitely for a mature audience. See more 11/07/2019 It was a silly stupid movie. It was funny and the underlying message was good. See more 11/03/2019 It was a hilarious concept. I loved the jokes and Jexis orgasm scenes (both fake and explosive). My favorite line of Adam Levines was when he reprised hard pass it was an all around funny movie. See more 11/03/2019 The language was pretty bad & they could have left out the naked Pics for sure. See more 11/01/2019 When we decided to see this movie I didn't think it was going to be that good but WOW did it surprise us. It was a great movie! See more Read all reviews
