  "account": "Klara and the Sun is a failed adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's sci-fi novel, starring rising actress Jenna Ortega. The movie follows the story of Klara, an Artificial Friend designed to be a perfect companion for a lonely teen, who is chosen by a gloomy teenage girl, Josie (played by Mia Tharia). Klara's presence in Josie's life is polarizing, as she provides a listening ear to Josie's mother's constant criticism and constant absences. The film, directed by Taika Waititi, is an uninspired and poorly executed attempt at exploring the themes of AI and its impact on human relationships.",
  "summary": "Taika Waititi delivers one of the worst movies of the year with his bland adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's critically heralded sci-fi novel, \"Klara and the Sun.\" Review.",
