Magneto, you, you, don't get excited

The very tight rhythm, gripping music, and clever editing make this documentary, which was originally difficult to shine, stunned.

The contradictions and conflicts in the film are accurately grasped, family, friendship, comrade-in-arms, every relationship seems to be very difficult, every bad relationship is just like a footnote added to Jobs' products, everyone only sees it No one pays attention to these minor footnotes to Jobs' success on paper. It is often the invisible things that constitute Jobs' image of a full and imperfect flesh and blood.

This film is obviously better than last year's social network with the same theme. If the social network can win awards, Jobs can't justify it. But the best male protagonist is still a bit boring. Fa Shark's performance is not bad, but the hostility is a bit too much. I always feel that Jobs in the film stares at death one second, and the next second, countless metal knives will be aimed at each other. Fly away in general. No matter how domineering Jobs is in private, he still has to retain his elegant image on the surface.

Still, it's pretty good, and it's one of the best movies I've seen recently.

    Overall good. I really admire Boyle's courage to narrate the three lines in parallel, and Sorkin's smooth script combined with the superb control of the two main actors (Turtle-chan and Winslet) makes it all possible. But Sorkin's dramatic strides are too big, and there are too many fictional elements, so that the Woz line can't be finished, and it's a pity. In the end, Guiguo is a cult.

    The whole film unfolds behind the scenes of every important Apple conference, basically showing contradictions and characters through lines, so it has its strength to win the best original script of the Golden Globe. Fa Shark shows the autocratic and indifferent side of the gang leader Qiao, but at the same time he has a little warmth and kindness reserved in his heart. But honestly, I'm not really interested in any films about Jobs...

Steve Jobs quotes

  • Joanna Hoffman: Please, you have to tell me why it's so important for it to say "hello".

    Steve Jobs: Hollywood, they make computers scary things. See how this reminds you of a friendly face? That the disk slot is a goofy grin? It's warm and it's playful and it needs to say "hello"!

    Joanna Hoffman: The computer in 2001 said "hello" all the time and it still scared the shit out of me.

  • Steve Jobs: Voicing an objection would've been a step in the right direction.
