Review: Steve Jobs

Hello everybody! This week, I have a review of Steve Jobs. Please remember these thoughts are my opinion and my opinion alone.

The story follows, well who else, Steve Jobs (Michael Fassbender) at three points in time: 1984,1988, and 1998. All three of these moments take place before important conferences and there’s a lot at stake for many of the characters. Whether it’s a technical issue or a conflict between characters, there is always something happening. Jobs is the central character and each character is a representation of an issue that he has to deal, which I think is really interesting.

The performances in this film are excellent. Fassbender was able to pull off being an asshole while somehow being a compassionate person at the same time. This difficult balance that Fassbender pulls off deserves much praise, and it could very well lead to an Oscar nomination. We’ll see though. Jeff Daniels also did a great job and I would like to see an nomination for him as well.

This film overall was well made. I loved how in 1984, the quality of the film looked grainy and as time advanced, so did the technology. It gave the appearance that we were experiencing what Jobs was as the event was happening. This film was also well paced and it didn’t seem to drag at all for me.

Overall, Steve Jobs is a well made film that deserves your attention.
