Watch Jobs For Free

Let's be realistic.

Good movie but grossly overrated

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I found this movie to be an informative and entertaining telling of the story of Steve Jobs and the start of Apple.The picture portrayed of Apple was unrelentingly positive, so at times the movie felt somewhat like an extended Apple advert. The picture portrayed of Steve Jobs was realistic, so we see both his good and bad sides. Few punches are pulled about what Jobs was really like. (However, perhaps this is the sort of thing that every successful man has to do on the way to the top.) Kutcher was well cast and played the role rather well, I would say. The scene that sticks in my mind in particular is his blistering telephone call with Bill Gates.If I have any criticism, it's that the movie was more or less structured as a straightforward biography, almost like a docu-drama. It felt a little superficial and by-the-book. Despite the thorough coverage of Jobs's philosophy, the movie didn't seem to have enough to say about Jobs's true internal world. We are left to wonder why he was such an a*shole.I was sorry when the movie ended (before the final years). I think the current score of 5.5 is too low. The movie is worth about 6.5, and it has enough merit for the score to be rounded up.

This is not a movie for Apple consumers. I guess the reviews reflect the viewers wishes for this piece to be an eye-candy project. This movie is explaining entrepreneurs journey to success through Steve's life. It's a true story - nothing happens over night. Even when you conquer everything there is to conquer in the industry, there's gonna be patent thieves, rotten non-visionary board members, broken friendships and much more. This is probably the only Kutcher's role where he showed his full potential as an actor.

There is no much to say about this. After only 3 minutes in you realize this is going to suck! the first couple of minutes should set the tone for the movie. should tell you what to expect from the rest. Good examples for this are "Scream". The Intro with Drew Barrymore totally gets you in the mood and tells you what to except the remaining 90 minutes or so. Here the first couple ob Minutes are boring as hell. Bad Camera. Mediocre Acting and it already feels totally boring. thats exactly how the movie continues... Your best bet would be to ignore this movie and go straight to watching the 2015 Steve Jobs Movie instead

It was an interesting take on Steve Jobs and Apple Computers. As some of the other reviewers have stated I am sure a lot of the script has been touched up for Hollywood. Nevertheless it does give a pretty good account of the time he spent with Apple before and after his return. It also lets us see a little of his personal life. It was a pretty good movie, and I really enjoyed the acting. Ashton did a fair job as did Josh.I don't regret watching it but don't go out of your way or plan your evening around this movie. It was okay, and if you have nothing else to watch and are curious then go for it.
