A
skin-deep portrait of (I assume was) an influential, complex figure.
However, the movie Jobs has the feel of an two dimensional made-for-TV
short special. An empty shell.
No depth to the personality of Steve Jobs, no depth to his development of Apple products and very little about the Apple company itself.Matt Whiteley’s clumsy script attempts to sync Jobs’ personal story with the corporate history of his brand... and, as affirmed Android/PC users will gladly tell you, syncing with Apple can be problematic at the best of times. Aspects of Jobs’ biography are hinted at, but only insofar as said events culminated in an Apple Computing product release. The balance is way off, and inconvenient truths that might shade this story as anything other than one hero’s journey (back) to the top of the corporate apex, are skimmed over or revised - if not eliminated completely.
