Jobs stars Ashton Kutcher as Steve Jobs, the mastermind behind and the creator of the technology giant, Apple. The movie begins with Steve Jobs in college and shows some of the intricacies of his mind, his differences and viewpoints. From there, we learn how Apple came to be and some of the challenges Jobs is faced with when his creativity and ideas are limited due to financial constraints and differences in minds.
Rating: 2.5-3/5 stars - ok, while I enjoyed the movie; and Ashton Kutcher did a great job re-enacting Steve Jobs (no pun intended), I was disappointed. I expected the movie to really dive more into Jobs' life, not just the fact that he was the creative genius behind Apple. There were a ton of loose ends, and when it ended, there were no "where are they now snapshots" with details regarding what happened to some of the people that were involved in Apple's history. There was also no mention of how Jobs died. While I (and probably 75% of people viewing the movie), already know what happened, the person that doesn't know who Jobs was would only learn that he was creative, thought outside of the box, and created Apple. If you've seen Pirates of Silicone Valley on tv, you've pretty much seen this movie.
