Since this is more of a documentary I would pay more attention to the message rather than the acting skills, especially in this very small clip.

An actual documentary would have the real Steve Jobs. This is a FILM based upon the life of Mr. Jobs. Mr. Kutcher's acting skills are a matter for debate.
 
It seems to be filmed well enough. Acting isn't too shabby, either. It's definitely worth watching in Steve's memory.
 
Noah Wyle > Ashton Kutcher

Noah BECAME Jobs. He did such an incredible job in that role; I just cant see Kutcher coming close to that.
 
Granted, I've seen of all 2 minutes but this looks like a government-broadcaster movie of the week.
 
My grandfather said that back in the day.... Nobody wants to buy a computer and the name Apple is so stupid...
 
I hope this isn't something that appears in theaters. Based on the small clip, it seems more like something you might watch late night after Conan if you can't fall asleep.
 
Well, from that one minute, you can't really tell much. But I like what I'm seeing so far, Kutcher is really believable. Some of you have to remember that this is supposed to be early Apple, and not today's Apple. Also keep in mind that it's 2013, and not the 70's/80's, and while they're aiming for that old look, they're trying to keep it modern looking too.

I'm pretty sure at least one of you could do better? :rolleyes: Because you know, it is pretty easy to submit your film to be considered for festivals like Sundance.
 
Thats not Steve Jobs ! Thats Ashton Kutcher trying to pretend to be Steve Jobs ! That clip is not to promising and I had such high hopes . looks like its being made for TV .
 
The whole OS speech Kutcher gave reminded me of the stuff he said around the table in Eric Foreman's basement....not good.
 
Did they get Hagrid, from Harry Potter to play Woz?

...

he comes off way too much like Kelso in this. He may look the part but it just doesn't seem right to me, maybe its just this clip. Having seen the current Woz I would not have expected this type of acting for his role, I guess its possible that was what he was like at that age lol
 
Since this is more of a documentary I would pay more attention to the message rather than the acting skills, especially in this very small clip.

But it isn't a documentary. It's a biography. Just as the author of a biography has to do justice to the subject of his book, the actor has to do the same to the character he's playing.
 
I'm actually surprised that I didn't dislike it. Didn't even have a problem with Kutcher. Not sure I like Gad's Woz though.
 
I'll probably watch it at some point, but I have to say- The Woz and Jobs of Pirates of Silicon Valley were much more convincing.
