Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Steve Jobs (2015)

Told in three acts, all of which have the same structure.

It's almost time for a product launch and Jobs and his right hand woman are backstage preparing. But there's drama with his baby-mama, daughter, partner (eventually former) and boss (eventually former) -- all of whom feel compelled to wait until moments before he goes on stage to have heart-to-hearts and/or drop bombs.

It felt both dishonest and tiresome.
