Wasn’t there any entire scene where he jerks off while she talks dirty to him? Maybe I’m misremembering or its another movie.

It's been too long since I saw Her to remember the particulars, but the IMDB Parents Guide for it contains an entry that backs Pigalowda's comment.

Parents Guide for Her:

OP should probably consult the IMDB Parents Guide for all of these. Everyone has their own ideas about what's okay for kids and what's not.

I was confused about the movie you were talking about - in “her” yeah there’s this scene, but the screen is black (and it’s more uncomfortable than anything else).

Parent can always watch first. 12yo is middle school right? 8th grade? I doubt this would be a 12yr olds first exposure to this kind of thing (and the context of the movie’s story is not a bad place for it).

Rereading the OPs request they mention “adult language” in the matrix so you’re probably right that my recs won’t be a good fit.
