When this movie was released, even though it was critically heralded, it turned out to be a box-office flop. Apparently, the audience didn’t care for another Steve Jobs biopic only a couple of years after another one, even if it was apparently much superior than its predecessor. Even so, since it sounded really intriguing and since I have always been a big fan of Danny Boyle's work, I was still really eager to check it out. Well, eventually, I was really impressed. Indeed, I really loved this original approach and I thought it turned out to be a much more effective way to learn about a famous figure that the usual bullet points that you get with this genre. As a result, you really get the opportunity to dive into the psychological complexity of this character, thanks also to another really strong performance by Michael Fassbender who remains one of the best actors of his generation. Eventually, you don't really get to know the other characters but you certainly get an interesting glimpse on Steve Jobs who might have been anything from a genius, a rock-star, a philosopher, a tyrant and a sociopath. To conclude, I thought it was a really strong and original biopic and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you're interested by this subject.
