This film was quite pathetic! Long, slow and without a strong foundation, you never notice how the started and how it ended. Slow&Long wouldn't matter to me as long as the story is exceptional. I was startled when I heard that the critics bashed this movie pretty bad and I thought they might be wrong, but they were right! Ashton Kutcher have the worst performance of his career, he was so artificial and so I judged from the opening scene that this movies probably gonna be a marathon. He tried so hard to act like Jobs and amid this crises he made himself so fake which obviously bantered the character. Just because he looked like him doesn't mean he can portray Jobs! Enough about Kutcher, if the story would have been epic it could have overshadowed Kutcher's gruesome acting. But the MAIN drop back of this film was the story, I mean it's pretty frustrating because you watch a movie to see/listen to a story & when you don't have an idea what the story is it's a big kick on the face of the maker and writers. Seemed like a student procrastinated on an essay the night before, threw a bunch of crap and submitted. On difference is that the maker of Jobs spent money for throwing crap. From the point of an avid movie goer it's hard to fathom how can someone put so much time and money to make something that wouldn't work. Well all we can do see warn people to not waste their time and money on this movie!

Steve Jobs(R.I.P) October,5th,2011. jOBS is not a biography movie like Citizen Kane, Gandhi, The Last Emperor, The Last King of Scotland, Malcolm X, and Gladiator. But it takes all the genre clichés from these movies, while following the same story structure of Social Network. Since I mentioned David Fincher's movie Social Network, I will start my review with the major problem in jOBS: Considering Social Network was an aptly marketed everyone's hero style of an average business-drama movie, in order to market a Steve Jobs life story appropriately, this wasn't the right choice. The cause of this marketing errors are the trailer, the poster with Ashton Kutcher on it, and the movie itself with Ashton Kutcher starring in it. Then what is jOBS about? jOBS is just a simple telling of a person's epoch-making achievement like Schindler's List, Spartacus, Raging Bull, Braveheart, Papillon, The Pianist, and even David Lnych's The Straight Story. jOBS has more than a few things in common with those movies including the pain of sacrificing your beloved ones in order to succeed in your career, including similar character traits, similar ethical beliefs, similar moral decisions. jOBS is only a brief telling of what Steve Jobs gave to the Macintosh computers, just like what Oscar Schindler gave to Jews, and what Braveheart gave to Scotland. You can't expect to see the birth and death of Steve Jobs in this movie. This is not a biopic, instead it's a drama, poorly marketed good business-drama. There are both strong and weak points in the technical side of jOBS. As a start, having no narration is a strong point, yet having not explained why Steve Jobs dropped out from college is crucially a weak point. Ashton Kutcher takes his girlfriend and goes behind bushes in the country and smokes weed. Then we get to figure it out that Steve Jobs has dropped out from college because he smoked weed and got his girlfriend pregnant. Refusing the birth of his first child due to his busy work schedules, Steve Jobs character has been made more weaker and weaker minute after minute. There is certainly a rule of character growth followed in this film, but none of this film's audiences have really bought that character growing incidents. This is an average business-drama movie, set in the world of entrepreneurial minds. You're lonely, you always keep a positive mind but always looking for a person to trust, you are goal-oriented, you take maximum risks for every little achievements in your life, you are a reliable friend to your colleagues but they are always afraid of you, and you see every step in your life as a competition with someone else's steps in their lives... This is a strong premise that killed the sense of making a Steve Jobs movie to honor his memory. This movie should have been made in 1997, when Steve Jobs have become the de facto chief CEO of Macintosh. And this movie could have been titled "Think Differently" as this is what it is only about. If this has been a movie called "Think Differently" made in 1997, then it could earn some recognition. Now people would come to you and ask "What did Steve Jobs do for the last 14 years of his life as a CEO in Apple?"

In all actuality, no one will never truly know how Steve jobs really was as an overseer and company head. As a story, Ashton Kutcher pulled it off just as good as Noah Wiley, the catch..... his voice. Kutcher carries a throaty, teen-like voice that doesn't match up to the forever renowned Steve Jobs, But he pulled it off perfectly in looks and mannerisms. There are many scenes where Kutcher plays a convincing jobs just by looks alone, except however when any voice-volume comes about. This movie played the "described" Steve jobs to a T. The story was slow in certain spaces and even entered a lull in some, but it stayed true to the heart of an ambitious young man, in the heart of silicon valley who had a vision and a dream. Sure you may say "tis movie doesn't capture the true heart of Steve jobs, but who could other than the great himself. To the "anti" critics, give Kutcher a chance because any biographical role is hard for any actor...... lets see you do it. The film focuses on the early and critical years of apple and evolves into where Jobs returns as CEO in the late 90's which is almost a prequel, so in all actuality, let it be that. Like any tasteful biography should be, it doesn't focus on his death, it focuses on what good the man did for this world. Don't consider this movie as a full on true story because its not. Consider it as a good story with great historical points in general, telling the story of a man who perfection was the only option. It tells the story of a man with ambition. Even though there weren't many "teaching points" in the movie, it really doesn't matter because thats what we have "google" for, but be prepared for opinions. I gave this movie an 8 because it deserves every little point it can get as long as its worth the rating, and this one got an 8 from me. As an early 80's child who saw the birth of the mac in my living room, I can honestly say that the ambition put into the mac bled all over my living room and I felt the future every time I touched the desk. This movie allowed me to relive what it took to get that mac in my house. The mac will always be the ONLY PC ever, all others are just copycat remakes of he 1980s, trying to push Job's vision in another name and form to the public. Just to add a note, If it wasn't for Jobs's education programs, I never would have felt the need and use of a PC. My mother was a teacher who got hers on an extreme discount because of the school that hired her, way before windows was ever introduced. This isn't a story of computers, iPhones or iPods, this is a story of a man who invented windows, and yeah, he did invent Windows. Without Jobs,Gates would have never created Windows. Its just a good story! exclamation point!

Creating a movie biopic about Steve Jobs is a brilliant idea. The creators had the opportunity to make a significant, informative film with their character study of the man who formed such a powerful company. But this one was a failure. The movie is supposed to be a character study. But honestly this movie doesn't teach us much about Jobs, moreover it gives us a basic time line of his life and company. Kind of like those short 100 page biographies you read in 3rd grade for a book report that just really skim the surface and leave out everything. This film lacked transition/fluidity and seemed choppy. Like the scene where we see him at his house with his family, the film never discussed that he came to have a wife and children. We only know that Lisa, his daughter, was from a previous relationship. And we learn that he tried to deny Lisa as his for a long time since the film focuses on it, but it never shows that he had a change of heart and accepted her as his child. Isn't a biopic supposed to teach us about a persons emotions, feelings about life, and his relationships with others? If you want to learn about who Steve Jobs is, read his biography. If you want something that makes you FEEL smart like you know about the genius of a man and Apple Corporation, watch this film.

This movie easily ranks among the movies I most disagree with the critics on. Why they HATE it? BIAS It's painfully obvious that their was a "Kutcher bias." The last thing nerds and GROUP-THINK-CRITICS are going to be open to is a model-turned-actor taking on the role of one of the most accomplished men of his generation, esp. so soon after his death. Not only did he nail the role, but he took the responsibility so seriously, and did such a great job, that he actually paid homage to the much deserving Jobs. ALL BIAS. I admit. I was bias too... ...until I saw how much Kutcher embodied Jobs. I couldn't believe he could do it. I didn't think he had it in him. I was wrong. This is coming from a cinephile EXTREMELY sensitive to poor acting, and yet Kutcher sold me--hook, line, and sinker. Not only did Kutcher nail the role, but it was a DAMN GOOD MOVIE. I've seen it twice now, and I look forward to the next time. It is inspiring, and it engenders that sense of magic and possibilities so few movies do. It is just a great, gripping, story. I was "in it" every step of the way. I didn't see Kutcher. I saw Jobs, and one hell of a ride.

There is not much to say about this movie that hasn't been written in many of the reviews before. The movie is flat, no emotions whatsoever, no chemistry between the actors, most of the carachters are just "one dimension".. I am not an apple fanatic (I have some of their products but I do not change them to follow the flow every year) and I am not blind before the flaws of Jobs' personality, but I'd like to see in the movie all the aspects of the man who, like it or not, left a mark in the IT field. What I saw it is a series of often disconnected episodes, and the few of them which were nice were a re-do of the (much better) the pirates of the Silicon Valley. Do not waste your time with this movie: if you want to learn more about apple/jobs, read a book, if you are already aware of the story, it simply won't add anything.

This film's biggest problem is that Ashton Kutcher's portrayal of the title character uses the same presentation-like delivery for almost every scene. This approach works when he is actually doing a presentation, but it is simply a distraction when used in scenes where he is at home with his family. Of course, it is meant to show that Steve Jobs was in a constantly elevated state of mind even around his most beloved, but the film takes his aloof attitude and bad temper as far as he is almost dehumanized at the end. "JOBS" starts out feeling realistic when the title character first introduces the iPod and harks back to his student days, but from there it almost resembles the biopics of rock musicians who fall out of their heydays due to alcoholism and substance abuse. By the end Kutcher is portraying the most arrogant lunatic on the planet instead of the most inspirational entrepreneur of our time, and there is not an explanation why he has become so mentally detached from the world surrounding him. The most disappointing omission of all, however, is the lack of his "Toy Story" aspect, a portion of his life which could have substantially restored his humanity in this film.

Apple is currently the highest net worth company in the world and to own any of the Apple gadgets has become a status symbol. Steve Jobs is an idol, a revolutionary and an inspiration to the millions of people who want to change the world. After his death, his legendary status grew even more (as it always does with passed away celebrities), so it is perfectly reasonable that there were high expectations for this movie. People were expecting a grand masterpiece of epic proportions about a man who many want to relate to and who many want to be. Unfortunately, the movie took a slightly different turn and the result of this can be seen on the IMDb movie score. This movie is not an epic journey of a strange protégé who eventually achieved everything there was to achieve and was carried on the arms of a cheering crowd at the end, followed by the end credits. NO! This is a movie about Jobs - about his personality, about his decisions, about his victories and about his failures. It is a cruel representation of what you have to go through in this world to achieve the status that he now has. It's a movie about a troubled hipster who wanted to learn and to achieve something, but hated the system into which the young are thrown into. He dropped out of College but still attended some classes, he got into fights at work because he would yell at his coworkers that they were not doing their job, he took other peoples ideas, remade them into a story and sold them with his speeches and he wanted all. He was stubborn, he always wanted the impossible and here comes the part that made him a legend: he always got the impossible out of people. Eventually he was driven from his company, he made bad calls, bad decisions, bad products, but later came back and dominated the computer scene again. He probably had more bad moments than good, but it's the good ones that count...and it's the good ones that changed the world. The people didn't get what they wanted...they didn't get a people's hero nor the man that was always right. And no one wants to see a movie about a man who nobody liked half of the movie...but it is how he was and you have to accept that. Ashton Kutcher's portrayal was also quite good and it seems that all the comedy movies and series that he has done have earned him a title of a bad actor, so you will hear a lot people saying this was a miss cast. Don't believe this people: go see the movie and make up your own mind. So don't be discouraged by the low IMDb ranking and see this movie with expectations of a great movie about a man who was an inventor, a visionary, a man who changed the world, but was still only that: a man, nothing more, nothing less. P.s. Don't expect to see any modern products in this movie. At the beginning, you will only briefly get to see the first generation Ipod, while other products are all the ones from the era before 1996. The movie actually ends in 1996, so many are disappointed that the movie did not show the era of Ipod's, Ipad's, Iphone's and Macbook's.

Saw a preview screening of 'JOBS' movie, but went away feeling that I just watched a 2 hour Apple computer commercial instead. I was entertained but also felt the movie was incorrectly titled It should have been called "the Apple Computer Movie" If you are a Jobs/Apple fan then go see the movie, otherwise save yourself from frustration & wait to watch it on TV. Ashton Kutcher's performance of Steve Jobs was very good. But that doesn't excuse the fact that there were way to many holes in the writing. They missed to much basic info about Steve Jobs life. I understand that you can't show everything about a person's life in 2 hours. But give me some info. An example: the storyline introduced very serious issues about his infant daughter, then suddenly later she briefly just shows up as a teenager without any explanation or anything in between. No mention about Jobs involvement with Pixar, Disney or music festivals and almost nothing about Steve Jobs life if it didn't have anything to do directly with Apple. What happened to the ending? Spoiler alert: Steve regains his position at Apple, movie over. (Jobs get his job back) Why not mention his battle with cancer/health issues & death? the story timeline never gets past the 2001 introduction of the ipod, (sorry they didn't get to iphones & ipads) The music soundtrack had some good classic tracks included but the rest sounded just like the dramatic lonely piano music pulled from the Shawshank Redemption. It worked well but seemed just like I've heard it somewhere before.
