A sleek, energetic, depth filled and riveting character drama that rather brilliantly delves into the disturbing faults and stubborn genius that was part and parcel of Jobs' character.October 17, 2015
A redemptive fable at once artful, elegant, and clean. But by stripping out any and all complications, the movie denies itself the opportunity for nuance and puts a ceiling on its own ambition.October 15, 2015
The dialogue crackles with wit, anger, and passion. By matching Sorkin's words with Boyle's style and Fassbender's talent, Steve Jobs has hit the trifecta.July 19, 2016
Steve Jobs is a magnificent movie.February 27, 2017
In many ways, the founder of Apple is the ideal subject for a screenplay by Aaron Sorkin: he is a spiteful, narcissistic American antihero.October 22, 2015
As original and risk-taking as its subject, "Steve Jobs" will make you think differently about an American icon.October 16, 2015
Thanks to Fassbender's revelatory performance, Jobs comes across as a captivating monster, a dictator in a black turtleneck who is impossible to ignore.October 05, 2016
The ending dramatics offer Jobs a little redemption from the otherwise unflattering portrait so we leave the theater with a balanced vision of this larger than life character.June 06, 2016
Viewers who experience ardent adulation each time a new iPhone hits the market will lap it up, but others might wonder what all the fuss is about.October 16, 2015
The acting is unarguably, uniformly strong.June 12, 2016
The Jobs here will always be "Aaron Sorkin's Jobs"... who people say was nerdier and more youthfully exuberant than the fully in-control maestro depicted in the film. But Fassbender does a great job with what he's given.October 16, 2015
It entertains and enlightens, and it's bang on in showing how great ideas are born not through compromise but through vision and determination.
