That it's historically inaccurate makes it uninteresting to me.

And that means there's no point in it, in my opinion.

If someone wants to write fiction, fine, but using a real figure like Jobs to ride his coattails just makes it lazy.

And since I was around for a lot of the history, the inaccuracies would be distracting. For someone who doesn't know the history, it makes the movie revisionist history; propaganda.
