The Enthralling Final Trailer for STEVE JOBS
"We will know soon enough if you are really are a Da Vinci, or you just think you are."
Danny Boyle and Aaron Sorkin's Steve Jobs looks so freakin' good. The movie recently screened at TIFF, and it was met with very positive reviews. It currently holds a 90% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Here are some brief excerpts from the reviews that have been written:
"Racing in high gear from start to finish, Danny Boyle's electric direction temperamentally complements Sorkin's highly theatrical three-act study, which might one day be fascinating to experience in a staged setting." - THR
"An enthralling performance by Michael Fassbender fuels this brilliant, infuriating and richly unconventional take on the life of an American visionary." - Variety
"Screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, who's written about America's Great Flawed Men with such fire and hyperarticulate pathos that he's threatened to become one himself, outdoes his work on The Social Network with an even sharper and more savage script." - Time Out
"Steve Jobs is a buzzingly entertaining movie about an obdurate radical with a broken operating system who still managed to transform the world around us, how we communicate, and the course of technological history." - The Playlist
This seems like it has turned out to be one of the must-watch movies of 2015. It opens up in theaters on October 9th in New York and Los Angeles. On October 23rd, it will get a wide release.
Set backstage at three iconic product launches and ending in 1998 with the unveiling of the iMac, Steve Jobs takes us behind the scenes of the digital revolution to paint an intimate portrait of the brilliant man at its epicenter.
