That is my major complaint about this movie. He is made to be a sympathetic character in this movie, always talking about how he wants to "save all his workers jobs". That man would have fired his mother if it meant he profited from it.
He screwed over so many people in his life. He stole a patent from a trusting business associate and then made his life hell when he tried to get back what was his life's work.
I really liked both John and the informants performance in this, I just wish it was a little more accurate when it came to Delorians true character, it would have made it more fun to enjoy watching his great downfall.

Yes the movie is like the DMC, it starts on a high note, losses track in between and the end it simply torturing.
Though based on true events the movie is made too boring, it can put you to sleep. Jason Sudeikis guess forgot that it was not a funny movie and his main role was not carried out so nicely.
I saw only for the love of the car and that too due to Back to the Future.
I'm usually the first to jump on SNL cast members making movies because they drag half of the cast with them, then you get the long skit version effect - but this is not that movie. Sudeikis is great as the annoying weirdo and has good chemistry with all the players around him. The story is good as an over view of Deloreans struggle so just enjoy the ride and don't look to deep into it.
We saw this movie at it's premiere in Venice. Although a great story and depiction of the final demise of John Delorean, the film only barely touched on Delorean's meteoric rise through GM and barely touched on those accomplishments. Jason Sudeikis steals every scene he is in as Jim Hoffman, but Lee Pace's portrayal of John Delorean is spot-on of the methodical genius. Presented as a "based on true events" biopic, I feel a lot of dramatic licenses were taken in bringing the final story to film.
Pace is fantastic as DeLorean and Sudeikis proves (again) that he can do much more than goofy comedies. Many here expected this film to focus on the famous engineer, but this is not a biopic. This is about the unlikely but fascinating events that led to the end of his career. We still get a good look at his personality, even if the focus is slightly more on Jim Hoffman whose story is also fascinating. Well worth a watch.

- GoofsIn one of the first scenes, it is stated that the year is 1977, yet Ellen is shown to be driving an Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser that can only be as old as 1989. This is a massive oversight as the Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser didn't exist at all until 1982, nor did any GM vehicle of that body style as the A-Body did not exist until 1982 either, let alone the updated version from 1989.
