Desertman84 Funny Or Die releases what they call "the first biopic" of the late Apple CEO Steve Jobs.They pride themselves of "being the first" and presents an unlikely tribute to the Apple Chief wherein it presents lots of fun and laughter as Jobs provides an examination of the events of his life from his childhood until his return to Apple Computer more than a decade after he got fired from the company by John Sculley.The 80-minute film stars Justin Long as Steve Jobs who provides narration in the events of his life together with Jorge Garcia,James Urbaniak and Michaela Watkins.It presents many events of his life like his student days at Reed,his friendship with Steve Wozniak,the presentation of the first Apple computer at Homebrew Computer Club,his firing from Apple and many others.Aside from real events of Jobs' life,we also get to see unlikely events of his life such as his friendship with Bill Gates,his love affair with Melinda Gates,his partnership with Commodore Computer,his love for soda drinks and many others.Apparently,this film is a combination of both accuracy and inaccuracy to provide funny moments to the viewer.While people who probably saw this film would somehow dislike it due to the inaccurate events,one must realize that it intends to be a parody of the life of an tech icon who gave the world products that people love.
loserdroid I just pulled this movie out at random and thought it might be an interesting story about the ACTUAL life of Steve Jobs and the birth of home computing. To be frank, I don't know much about Steve Jobs, but apparently I know a hell of a lot more than the people who made this movie about Steve Jobs.The jokes are terrible enough that it isn't really even apparent in the beginning that this movie is even a parody. Eventually, you get to this scene where Woz and Jobs and Gates are banging on motherboards with hammers like 2-year-olds. not sure why.... But if the movie aims to appeal to computer nerds, maybe it should be somewhat authentic in its representation of them. They're banging on motherboards that wouldn't be invented for another 20 years (Pentiums with ZIF Sockets and Slot Processors). It is just crap. It's not even funny. If the filmmakers knew jack about computers, there would be an Altair in the scene somewhere. I kinda think that if you're going to parody something, you should parody something that's true. I don't think Bill and Melida gates met until maybe the late 90s? I don't know what I'm talking about, but I pretty much guarantee you she wasn't hanging out with them in the garage in the 70s.Also, D'arcy from the Smashing Pumpkins was never married to Billy Corgan and they never even dated. In the early days of the band, she dated James Iha. Also, Billy Corgan didn't start shaving his head until 1995 just after the release of the "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" single which was released in 1995... the music video for which features Billy Corgan with hair. Dumb Jokes, Dumb plot, not informative, not funny, not accurate, and unappealing to the demographic that would be most interested in watching a movie about Steve Jobs. I stopped watching about 2/3rds of the way through... I couldn't take it anymore... so I don't even know how it ends so I'll spare you any spoilers.
jordan_heidendahl Apparently written in 3 days, and filmed in 5 this movie is so funny. So many memorable moments including the virtual Melinda gates sex scene. The acting is bang on, and the writing is great. Better then most box office comedies in the past few years. Hopefully there will be more and more of these low budget but awesomely written movies produced in the future, though Funny or Die's follow up 'Coffee Town' looks pretty lame. Jorge Garcia as Steve Wozniak is an endless source of laughs, I'm still laughing just thinking about the way they wrote the relationship between him and Jobs. Check it out, it is ridiculous but amazing.
friendios What I hate about movies these days are that they cannot live up to what they commercialized. Die Hard 5, Oblivion's plot, or Movie 43. This movie's poster is totally dumb and goofy, so is the movie. I got what I expected. Just things that are goofy as hell and off-the-top stupid. I had the best laughs in a long time with this movie. The fight scene was just completely stupid, with Bill and Steve T-Rex slapping at each other. The sex scene blew my mind, I did not expect it to happen, and when it did, it's not even sexy or anything, it's just so goofy and dumb it's hilarious.Overall, I got what I want from it, and it cost me nothing but time, so i rate it a 9/10.
