October, while UK cinema goers will be able to catch the new Steve Jobs film from 1. November. However, we were lucky enough to see the movie at a screening in early October, and we have included our review of the Steve Jobs movie in this article.

We were very excited about the new movie but our enthusiasm was dampened somewhat when we discovered that it is  an inaccurate portrayal of events - and we are sticklers for the true story. We also feel that Jobs is portrayed ! The new Steve JObs fil currently has an IMDb rating of 7. Android fan boys are voting for it!)Either way, it’s not proving to be a hit with US audiences. According to Mac. Rumours the film has been pulled from more than 2,0.

US after flopping at the Box Office, although that site is suggesting it might be re- released again nearer the Oscars. In the second weekend the movie made 6. We think that the issue with the movie is that the team behind it didn’t appreciate their market. With so many Apple fans around the world the film could have been a real hit – if it hadn’t portrayed the story in such a negative light.

For those who are less likely to feel that an injustice has been done, in what is essentially a character assassination, perhaps it will be seen as a good story.

Friday 9 October before roling out to all cinemas on 2. October. Macworld UK's review of the Steve Jobs film. It’s not that I’m such a fan of Apple that I don’t want to know about the nasty side of Jobs. I had first hand experience of what the man was like (I was once pushed out of the way by him when he wanted to show Alicia Keys how to use i. Tunes). Also, knowing people who have worked at Apple over the years, I am well aware of the fear and panic that being caught in a lift with him (or elevator if you are in the US) would cause. I’m well aware that Jobs wasn’t known for his soft side.

And yet we all know that the man had many achievements. That he lead a revolution that has got us to where we are today.

Sure he used other people’s expertise to recognize his dreams, but dream them he did. He led the orchestra that created the products that he is famed for. With all this in mind, I was disappointed in the Steve Jobs movie. Partly because as an Apple expert I watched the film in dismay as events were pulled out of context and people appeared in locations and at times where they simply wouldn’t have been around.

I can’t help but think that in his desire to avoid the chronological retelling or Steve Jobs story, a traditional childhood to death epic, in favour of three acts (which would be better suited to a theatrical production) Aaron Sorkin constrained himself too much. The only way he could tell the story was to pull events from all corners of Jobs’ life and present them as if they had happened in the 3. Hence we have Steve Jobs (portrayed by Michael Fassbender) washing his feet in a toilet minutes before going on stage to announce the Macintosh. Sure, Jobs was known to have done this, but not at this stage in his story!

Apparently Sorkin had read the Walter Isaacson biography but he had no trouble deciding to shuffle around events – it’s a wonder he didn’t have him getting high before the launch of the Ne. Xt computer of something. There are so many examples of events being taken out of context that I could practically repeat the whole plot of the movie in this article, but I won’t do that, just in case you actually want to watch it. Another constraint of Sorkin’s model for presenting Steve Jobs’ story is to have him interacting with the same six people at each of these 3.

As if in the run up to a keynote presentation Jobs would be spending his time speaking to various people from his past. Even if you suspend disbelief at the fact that he is talking to people at the time one would imagine he would be tearing around backstage shouting at people to get things working, or running through the script, the fact that some of the people are even there at those moments in time is factually incorrect. Take Jobs and the other co- founder of Apple, Steve Wozniak, played by Seth Rogan.

Woz is there at the launch of the Mac in 1. Steve Jobs goes on stage to talk Ne. XT computers during the wilderness years, and even more randomly (since in real life he no longer is working at Apple at this time) Woz is there at the launch of the i. Mac in 1. 99. 7. And you know what’s the most annoying thing about this – at each of these events, like a broken record Woz is asking Jobs to mention the Apple II team. Not only does this make him sound like a bit of an idiot, it’s such a shame for Woz to be presented in this light given that he actually worked as a consultant on the film – he was paid considerably for his efforts.

It’s almost as if nobody listened to a word he said other than some comment he must have made about the Apple II. Another face that just keeps on popping up when he wouldn’t have been around is former (and somewhat disgraced) Apple CEO John Sculley (played by Jeff Daniels). There he is at the Mac, Ne. XT and the i. Mac launch. Clearly he didn’t have anything better to do than stalk Jobs, the man he got fired.

The reoccurrence of key characters throughout the plot, despite them not actually working at Apple also applies to a key character, Joanna Hoffman (played by Kate Winslet), who was at Jobs side before each of these keynotes. If you are aware of the actual story, she had left Apple long Jobs returned to launch the i. Mac. Just as an aside, I couldn’t help but think she actually looked younger by the end of the movie. One particularly strange choice for a key character, I thought, was the focus on Andy Hertzfeld. Known as the . He was even credited with giving money to the father of Jobs’ daughter – the one Jobs denied paternity of. I’m really not sure of the accuracy of this. Jobs ex- partner Chrisaan Brennan and his daughter Lisa had a key part in Sorkin’s story that they never had in the Walter Isaacson biography.

With a frantic and unstable Chrisaan appearing before the first two Jobs om- stage appearances, to beg him for money. But the real tale being told is about Jobs’ relationship with his daughter Lisa. With much made of the fact that he  initially refused to accept her as his own despite a positive paternity test. Lisa had chosen not to speak to Isaacson when he was researching her father’s biography because she wasn’t comfortable talking about Jobs while he was still alive, but once Sorkin was able to speak to her it really changed the theme of the movie. It’s a shame really that Sorkin was so intent on restricting himself to the three scene format, because perhaps this was a story to be told that was worth listening to. How Jobs accepted Lisa as his own, and how Lisa actually ended up living with Jobs and his new family.

But this is only hinted at during the film as it leaps from year to year and decade to decade. I can’t help but think that if you don’t know the real story of Steve Jobs you will come away from the movie confused about what actually happened. While if, like me you know the story your reaction will be blinkered by the feeling that an injustice has been done in its telling. Jobs wife, Laurene Powell, who tried to get the movie stopped, was instrumental in some of early complications with the movie that saw the movie makers approach three different stars before one would agree to take on the role of Jobs. I can’t help but think that she was right to be concerned.
