Beautiful. Danny Boyle has done it again.

Rating: 10/10 (18 April 2016)

I'm going to make this review short, and spoiler free. I hope.
Steve Jobs takes place during three different events over the span of I think 19 years. It's a look at the 40 minutes backstage before the unveiling of a product by Jobs.
Going into this movie I had no idea what to expect. But I knew that a combination of the genius behind Slumdog Millionaire and Trainspotting with the genius behind The Social Network and A Few Good Men had to be a great match. And it's the greatest collaboration I've ever seen since Bryan Singer's The Usual Suspects. It's not anything like that film, but the collaboration of Boyle and Sorkin was as beautiful as what was done with Bryan Singer and Christopher McQuarrie. The direction by Boyle was beautifully done. He is very unorthodox with his directing, and embraced that with this film, and the writing adds so much to the film. The balance of technological mumbo jumbo and emotional breakdowns and arguments brought to life through tremendous acting makes this film one of the best films of 2015. If not, the best.
Oh yeah, the acting. Michael Fassbender deserved the Oscar a million times more than Dicaprio. Fassbender's performance was such a layered character, at times I forgot that I was watching an actor, I thought it was a documentary with real footage. Kate Winslet, Seth Rogen, Jeff Daniels, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Katherine Waterson all give amazing performances. They all react to Steve Jobs in the most human, and believable character ways that bring a whole other reason for this film to be more deserving than Spotlight.
All in all, this film is an amazing, realistic film that shows more of the personal, and emotional affairs of Steve Jobs. If you're expecting a regular biopic highlighting his finest hours, then you won't fully get that. But you'll receive a masterpiece crafted by Danny Boyle. This film was robbed at the Oscars, and is easily one of the best of 2015.
Final Rating: 9.8 Rounds up to a 10 so...
