Review of Steve Jobs (2015) by Junelkean — 28 Jun 2017
Set behind the scenes at three product launches, the Macintosh, NeXT and iMac, this film explores the world of digital revolution to look on the progress of technology and the private life of the CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs. But the emphasis of this movie are the rip-roaring moments and intensifying events backstage before the launches of his three mentioned iconic products.
This film has three acts which represents the three time periods of Jobs' career entirely shown by adrenaline-fueled dialogue. It turns 120 minutes of talking into an interesting movie written fantastically by Aaron Sorkin. It is also extremely well-acted by its actors: Steve Jobs is played by Michael Fassbender, who gives the performance of his career. It also stars Kate Winslet, Jeff Daniels, Katherine Waterston and Seth Rogen, who all nailed it, in terms of performances.
It is an energetic movie with a strong direction from Danny Boyle. But Steve Jobs is not a movie for everyone. Some would be bored and not interested, but if you like dialogue-driven films, Steve Jobs would be an investing movie for you.
VERDICT: Sorkin, Boyle and Fassbender work magic together.
