- QuizJim Balsillie originally didn't know what to make of Glenn Howerton's performance of him until he saw the film with a crowd who reacted well to Howerton's performance.
- BlooperAlthough it does have agreements with Canadian regulatory bodies like the Ontario Securities Commission the SEC, which is an American government entity, has no authority to conduct independent investigations within Canada's borders.
- Versioni alternativeAlso released as a 3-part miniseries on streaming channel AMC+ under the title "BlackBerry: The Limited Series". This version contains 16 minutes of footage originally omitted from the theatrical edit because it was deemed to be relevant mostly to Canadian audiences, such as Balsillie's love of hockey and his attempts to buy the Pittsburgh Penguins team. Each episode focuses on a different year (1996, 2003 and 2007).
Recensione in evidenza
The rise and fall of Blackberry, the world's first smartphone, it's journey from initial conception, to funding, all the way through to its tragic collapse.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film, it's one I would suggest that has a universal appeal, one many will enjoy, fascinating to think this is where it all started, everything about our phones that we now take for granted.
What a fascinating story this is, I'm sure many of us had a blackberry back in the day, I certainly did, it was such a reliable device, it was a game changer, until iPhone that is.
It's an intriguing story, with several jaw dropping moments, including the way Jim made his initial impact, then went on and assembled such an incredible work force.
A few funny moments, and some very sad scenes too, sewing Mike desperately trying to put something together to compete with Apple was quite tragic, after doing all of the ground work, the tide literally turned overnight.
Glenn Howerton gives a show stealing performance as Jim, he's angry, he's short tempered, he wants things done yesterday, he's a high powered, highly motivated executive, dealing with a team who live life to the chill, what a strong performance, that scene where Jim realises that the game is up, fantastic.
The whole cast are excellent, Jay Baruchel and Matt Johnson were both great. Seeing Mike change over time, that was skilfully done.
I was surprised by how good this was.
8/10.
