CommentsThemes are mostly inspirational and fairly complex, but the story of success of Steve Jobs, founder of Apple Computers is an uplifting one, inspiring hard work and going after one's vision. Rather more mature is the brief theme of his denial of paternity.

C. Fuchs quote iconOverall, Jobs isn't horrible, but that very fact would seemingly make the late tech giant cringe since this isn't anywhere near the perfect portrayal of him and doesn't ultimately do anything for the viewer beyond providing a cursory summary of just part of his life.

Tomatometer quote iconAn ambitious but skin-deep portrait of an influential, complex figure, Jobs often has the feel of an over-sentimentalized made-for-TV biopic.
