Movie Info
"JOBS" is the incredibly powerful and true story of the visionary who set out to change the world, and did. Directed by Joshua Michael Stern, "JOBS" is an incredibly personal story covering nearly 40 years of Steve Jobs' life and an intensely character-driven story that is as much a sweeping epic as it is a personal tale. An ultimately inspiring story, "JOBS" pulls no punches and does not speculate, only telling the truthful real life events as seen through his eyes, emotions, and ingenuity. The

Avoids outright hagiography, but more or less embodies the sort of bland, go-with-the-flow creative thinking Jobs himself would have scorned.
Top CriticA biopic that's perhaps too respectful of the tech icon's innovations still remains frequently engaging.
Feels like a TV movie, but on that level it's not bad. The story is engaging, although Kutcher isn't quite able to pull it off.
One of the reasons I hated this Joshua Michael Stern's need to find it necessary to spoon feed his audience to the point of being completely patronizing.
This is far from the bomb some would have envisaged, but neither is it the character illumination one would wish for.
The poverty of [Kutcher's] skills as a serious actor is on full display.
Bio-pics always tailor memories. Yet the welcome surprise here is Kutcher, as the barefoot rebel who brought the spirit of psychedelia to technology.
