Really Enjoyable!

Rating: 8/10 (23 October 2015)

This movie is so fantastic. As Sorkin goes, not quite as good as The Social Network, but probably up there with Moneyball. I loved this. I think this movie really lets you get to know Steve Jobs. Yoh actually understand him. You go in thinking he was just an asshole, and it portrays him that way. Though you understand his character, and he isn't just completely unlikeable, which I expected him to be.
Michael Fassbender plays Jobs perfectly, and gives him an incredible performance, probably his best since Shame. Kate Winslet is incredible as well, and honestly just as good as Fassbender. I honestly see her winning best supporting actress. I had no idea her character was from Poland, and she nails the accent perfectly. It's her best performance in years. Seth Rogen was also great as Steve Wozniak, and probably his best performance, but not quite Oscar- caliber.
I also have to talk about Danny Boyle's directing, which is magnificent. It's just as stylish as always, but never distracting. In case you guys didn't know, this film is essentially 3 long scenes that take place before the launch of a major apple product, with a few flashbacks in between. Danny Boyle shot each scene differently, as the tech world evolutionized. The first scene was shot in 16 mm, the second in 35 mm, and the last in digital. This seems gimmicky, but it works so well.
You'd think that a movie that's just 3 long scenes would be boring, but the film has so much energy and intensity. I loved every second of it. I was engaged in the film, my eyes were glued to the screen. There was a scene in the film, where Jobs goes into the bathroom and looks in the mirror, and I literally thought for a second I was going to see a reflection of myself in the mirror. THAT'S how engaging it is. I totally forgot I was watching a movie. This is a 9.5/10 for me. I definitely recommend it.
