This is the Steve Jobs movie I’ve been waiting for, hoping for. Penned by Aaron Sorkin, directed by Danny Boyle, terrific cast. And it looks like they’ve pulled it off.

Here’s a taste, just one of ten review excerpts in the article, this one by Todd McCarthy of the Hollywood Reporter:

How do you get to the bottom of a character like Steve Jobs, a figure so towering and complex that he could arguably serve as the basis of a film as ambitious as Citizen Kane? If you’re a dramatist with the character insight and verbal dexterity of Aaron Sorkin, you make him the vortex of a swirling human hurricane, the puppetmaster who kept all around him on strings, the impresario of a circus dedicated to the creation and dramatic unveiling of technological wonders that changed the world. Racing in high gear from start to finish, Danny Boyle’s electric direction tempermentally complements Sorkin’s highly theatrical three-act study, which might one day be fascinating to experience in a staged setting. With its high-profile launches at the Telluride, New York and London film festivals, this Universal release is clearly positioned as one of the prestige titles of the fall season and will be high priority viewing for discerning audiences around the world.

This is pretty typical of the reviews. If you like Sorkin and dialog-driven films like A Few Good Men, The American President, and The Social Network, this might be the Steve Jobs film for you.

Me? I’m definitely in.
