I really thought that this was going to be a positive romanticized movie but it is not. I'm about half way through and not really surprised he died young. Bitter, cold to family, screwed his early startup employees.

In fact, I'm kind of confused what his role in Apple is besides talking and vision. He is portrayed as just riding Wonks coattails early. I suppose he is the business guy but Wozniak should really be credited with Apple's startup. Portrayed as far more thankful and benevolent.

It's rather boring though. I'm waiting for Gates to bust through and give him a DDP.

Pirates of Silicon Valley still wins.

Body funk at him alive from the inside out, dude was a dirty hippie with the ruthlessness of Gordon Gecko.

I never said it was good. Kind of weird. Like it was rushed through

This. I think they were trying to make another Social Network but it felt like they put together the entire production in a couple weeks worth of spare time. Seemed very rushed.

Sorkin has his own Jobs biopic that will in all likelihood put this one to shame if they ever find a decent director to sign on.
