BlackBerry also has the interesting component of a tragedy heralded by the powerful and ephemeral success of the device. [Full review in Spanish]

Giving the turbulent tale of one of America’s first smartphone’s rise and fall an appropriately rollicking biopic, Matt Johnson transforms what could’ve been a dry visual representation of a Wikipedia article into a mini tech epic.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Aug 22, 2024

Stories about American entrepreneurs are as old and fraudulent as our stories about discovery and the frontier—but BlackBerry has no such love for the corporate ethos.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 20, 2024

Every time Howerton enters a scene, he exudes a pure, visceral intensity in a way that is terrifying, hilarious, and consistently captivating.

| Original Score: 9/10 | Jul 12, 2024

Howerton almost rescues this uneven, chaotic film in a performance that will make you wonder where this has been his entire career, but this is the BlackBerry of techy biopics. It’s nothing new anymore.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 4, 2024

A fascinating, entertaining and – somewhat ironic – look back at a one-time, must-have item that once made up 45% of the cellphone market.

| May 26, 2024

It’s a culture clash business comic-drama where the geeks and the suits go on a rollercoaster ride, a story stripped of outside life but rife with telling touches.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 18, 2024

One of 2023's 20 best films.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Mar 12, 2024

As the film progresses, the humor becomes more ironic, but it never loses its ability to make us reflect and laugh at the same time. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 8/10 | Mar 1, 2024

The comedy comes instead from Johnson’s deliberate direction. It’s found in an ironic zoom here, a hilarious cut there. This alchemy finds the most magic in how it supports Glenn Howerton’s towering performance.

| Feb 13, 2024

It is in Glenn Howerton’s over-the-top portrayal of Jim that BlackBerry soars above everything else you’ve seen in this genre, and catapults BlackBerry into the satirical stratosphere.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 3, 2024

Friendship and family start us off...and here we are still thrashing...

| Jan 5, 2024

It's a devilishly entertaining comedy-drama, that boasts solid performances and never loses its consistent pace chronicling the rise and fall of BlackBerry. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jan 2, 2024

Jay Baruchel is wonderful as BlackBerry creator Mike Lazaridis, but it’s Glenn Howerton who steals the show as co-CEO Jim Balsillie, giving a hysterical, hot-tempered performance that could slot right into an episode of Succession.

| Dec 22, 2023

[It's] a tale of what happens when pals become business partners, when smart little companies get into bed with big dumb ones, and what happens to game-changers when the rules are been thrown out the window by someone else.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 8, 2023

It’s by the numbers, and its sense of self importance renders it all kind of silly.

| Nov 28, 2023

Presenting us with very human protagonists and developing a potentially boring narrative with energy, “BlackBerry” works as a docu-drama. Surely those who were alive at this time and had a BlackBerry will feel some nostalgia. Full review in Spanish.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 25, 2023

Despite playing the story for more laughs than are probably necessary, the lead performances of BlackBerry are very watchable, and the story of the brand’s rise and demise is certainly one worth watching.

| Nov 15, 2023

This entertaining film features standout work from Baruchel, especially when he begins to crack with the realization that Apple is getting ready to kill his company with their upcoming iPhone, a product with the highest consumer interest in history.

| Oct 24, 2023

BlackBerry is an impressive feat that marks Johnson’s leap from indie darling/온라인카지노추천 Director to someone to genuinely watch out for.
