"Jobs": a good biography, not a good movie
Name 2021-11-30 08:01:27
After being bombarded by the Golden Globes and Oscars, I decided to watch the biopic of this legend. It's really very biographical. If I read a book, I feel "well, quite faithful", with all the good and bad factors that a genius has. But for the movie, the quarrel accounted for four-fifths, and the rest was occasional silence. Although the protagonist had occasional feelings, it was far less profound than the quarrel. The three clips selected in the film used exactly the same shooting techniques and routines, as if they were completely trapped in an endless loop of numbers, ambitions, orders, quarrels, and executions. There are few humanized parts, and they will undoubtedly bring life to life. People are driving crazy and sick. The whole film is flat and there are no major conflicts. Although Jobs has been in various quarrels and conflicts, there is no conflict that promotes the development of the story. Farshark and Kate’s performances are indeed extraordinary, but if the protagonist of this film is not Steve Jobs, but some other lesser-known characters, this film may be criticized for nothing. (Maybe this is the effect of worship.) It can only be said that "Jobs" is a good biography, but as a movie, let's forget it. Personal viewing experience is not good.

It is almost impossible to show a real complex character in 2 hours. And this film did it. Whatever the real Jobs looked like, the movie created a unique on-screen image. The only flaw is that there is too much background information. If you don't know Jobs' life, it's easy to get confused.

Alan Sorkin is still strong in the drama part, but unfortunately he couldn't even get the nomination. Especially after the appearance of these press conferences, talk and tears, there is still a story of family affection hidden, the characters are becoming more three-dimensional and rich, how can it be simply judged. There is really no way to associate Fassbender with Jobs. He played another genius who was so confident that he ignored everything, and he was equally good.

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.
