Actors are similar to their prototypes, which I appreciate. Michael Bay coughed up some resemblance in his "Sweat and Blood". However, it's not just about resemblance, but also about how they handled their roles. They took them on with skill and in essence, no one here ruins the whole movie from the characters' perspective. Ashton Kutcher doesn't stand out as much as other stars in the main roles of biographies, but that's good. Even Steve Jobs' life was about other people. Ashton sometimes exaggerates, but that's somehow part of him. Otherwise, he really tried and it shows. If he doesn't play in every garbage that brings him money, maybe he could still show the world that he is a capable actor. I'm quite curious about that. Otherwise, "jOBS" doesn't dazzle, but it's also not the flop I expected. More: http://www.filmovy-denik.cz/2013/09/jobs-2013-60.html

Una agradable sorpresa después de las frías reacciones del ultramar. No trata de la vida privada de Jobs, sino de su papel en la creación de Apple y la primera etapa de la existencia de la empresa. Se adentra en la privacidad solo marginalmente, para esbozar rápidamente el enfoque de su personaje ante eventos inesperados de su vida (que no solucionaba muy ejemplarmente). El alfa y omega de la narración es su enfoque de los eventos profesionales: pasión por la causa, fe inquebrantable en la visión. Esto, junto con los verdaderos pensamientos que expresa continuamente, hace que esta película sea inspiradora y enérgica, que puede inspirar y *empujar*. Además, lo muestra a 'cómo era realmente', lo que le gustará a todos los fundadores ambiciosos de start-ups que están en sus garajes y que enfrentarán los mismos problemas cuando su creatividad choque con los inversionistas pensando solamente en las ganancias inmediatas. Una pequeña película agradable y útil al nivel de la Hitchcock «televisiva» , pero por supuesto por debajo La Red Social, cuyo guión y dirección son superiores. Ashton Kutcher es bueno. La cuarta estrella es puramente subjetiva: entendí cada una de sus decisiones, impulsos, movimientos e incluso tenía en la oficina una mesa de vidrio parecida :-)

The events of the story are engaging and interesting, but unfortunately the film is completely brought to its knees by one major problem: Ashton Kutcher's lacklustre and dull performance; he simply can’t handle drama. I don’t know how Jobs was in real life, but I’m very sure he wasn’t a cold fish with the same set expression and slight smile. What's more, the film doesn't make it so clear what Jobs struggled with most – himself, his almost morbid perfectionism and uncompromising egotism, where he was willing to go over dead bodies – but in Kutcher’s interpretation he looks more like a puppy who occasionally barks and bares its teeth. All those casually thrown situations don’t really explain what Jobs’s greatness was. Better read Walter Isaacson's book, it is infinitely more engaging and dramatic.

Jobs was an incredible hard worker and visionary with a strong and inspirational character, regardless of how well the film is managed. In my opinion, it was maybe a bit short and sometimes too humorously presented. I would expect much more compelling plot twists in building the company, more psychology and moral dilemmas in the pursuit of fame that every successful entrepreneur has to overcome and solve, sacrificing something for something. Unfortunately, we don't get that completely here. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the movie, or rather, Ashton Kutcher's portrayal of Steve Jobs entertained me, he really tried hard. In some scenes, I could literally feel his frustration through the screen and most importantly, I understood him.
