Steve Jobs Reviews
It is so satisfying to watch good actors work with a whip-smart script and under very assured direction.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 25, 2022
Although highly theatrical in Sorkin's application of his dramaturgy, Steve Jobs also happens to be some of the best cinema offered in 2015.
| Original Score: 4/4 | May 12, 2022
A lot of pretty words that sound good, but don't say very much.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 18, 2021
It's something akin to movie heaven.

Danny Boyle's portrait of Apple founder Steve Jobs may not stick rigidly to the facts, but it's a riveting film.

This is a bold film that thinks differently about its subject, but at it's heart it is about a typical movie subject.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 4, 2021
If not for the performances, this attempt to at most humanize, at worst explain tech pioneer Steve Jobs would struggle to find its own footing and whatever your opinion of the man going in, it will be the same opinion you have of him coming out.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 16, 2020
Fortunately, whether spurious or precise, the players are all at the top of their games.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Dec 4, 2020
Steve Jobs is a massive waste of talent and money and Danny Boyle is not the director who is up to the challenge of making gold out of nothing...

The interesting thing is that Boyle never allows the characters to leave the stage to create intimacy with Jobs, letting us know what he thinks and what he feels behind the curtains. [Full review in Spanish]

I just felt like I was behind all the time and that I was being yelled at.

Nothing happened in this movie.

The greatest innovation of all is that this film never glosses over his flaws, but lays them bare. The real Steve Jobs didn't care if people liked him or not, and this film is just as uncompromising towards its subject.

In the case of Steve Jobs, Boyle and Sorkin paint him as an unpleasant, egotistical and unapologetic jerk, with an almost magnetic presence. Coupled with a neat script, great visuals and a brilliant supporting cast, it is outstanding.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 18, 2019
For a movie about a man making and SELLING computers, it is not only watchable, it's repeatably watchable, and endlessly fascinating.
| Original Score: A+ | Oct 16, 2019
From camera angles to staging, it's a film that speaks on so many levels. It proves that style and substance aren't mutually exclusive, they can live together in a film successfully.
| Original Score: 9/10 | Aug 8, 2019
Steve Jobs is a breathless, brilliant character study that relies on nothing more than words and performances. For a film about a guy pushing towards a revolutionary future, this is as much a blissfully simplistic throwback as could be imagined.
| Original Score: A | Jul 30, 2019
Steve Jobs wildly succeeds in painting an effective portrait of a difficult man who helped change the world.
| Original Score: 3.75/5 | Jul 20, 2019
The film never manufactures a leap of maturation in Jobs, rather it leverages Fassbender's innate likability and subtle acting choices to imply the kind of realistic growth you might actually witness in real life.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Jul 16, 2019
Exists in a realm of great filmmaking that exists in that rare sweet spot where great writing, great directing and great acting collide.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jul 5, 2019
