Not worth it
Move along folks,nothing to see here..!
Beware - Negative reviews are written by same person! This is a great movie and superbly acted by Kate and Michael. The story and person are iconic to today's lifestyles. Suspected Jobs was a freak, and this proves it, but most inventors can be twisted.
Interesting reviews all hate Apple it seems. Well I thought it was very well acted, I loved Kate Winslet in particular. I think part of the intention was to solidify dislike of Steve Jobs which one would be hard pressed not to by the end of this portrayal. Great Job.
Nothing in the movie really portrays who Steve Jobs was. Gibney tried to invent the wheel by recycling old information and put in a different context. His resources are false and biased, his arguments are mediocre and not well supported, and there are chronological mistakes as well. Yet, he portrays people as bunch of idiots for liking Steve Jobs who in reality is an evil person purposely trying to enslave everyone in his magical "Apple Eco-system." I find it immoral Gibney including an interview of Steve Jobs who already was deathly ill at the time and on pain killers in order to portray him as a villain.
Why do so many care so deeply about someone they've never met that they could be moved to tears at a drop of a candlelight vigil? This becomes the entry point to a documentary that seems to neither really attempt to answer the question nor offer any new insight into Steve Jobs.
Another movie on this guy. Why? We all know his story. Apple's just trying to shove it down our throats. I'm not giving them a red cent. Their products already have insane mark-ups. Which Apple loyalists don't see as a bad thing. While other companies offer you more bang for your buck Apple gives you inferior hardware (Iphone market). And customers are basically encouraging this money making tactic each time they buy a phone. It's not right!
Apple must be driving this 2nd reincarnation. The question is, does anyone care? I know I don't! What more can be told in this movie that hasn't already been told. A complete waste of time and money as far as I'm concern.
ENOUGH, LIKE 5 OF THEM. Stop making movies about this ass----
Why are they making a second movie on Jobs?
