Rise and Fall of the BlackBerry phone. You will see how a small company evolves and why they make some decisions one way or another. Good viewing for a school kid and for an engineer. Thumbs up Glenn Howerton for the role of co-CEO Jim Balsillie.
Siskoid
One of the unforeseen manifestations of late-era capitalism is apparently getting more and more movies about products, something sure to make my general disinterest in biopics dis even further. Blackberry does it right, however, because it's no longer a thing, and I don't feel like I'm watching a long commercial. I knew in advance, of course. I'm just now discovering Matt Johnson's work, but Glenn Howerton and Jay Baruchel have proven value, as do a lot of the Canadian personalities cast in smaller roles. And because it uses the product's eventual failure (after creating an entire market), it has license to be funny and find the jokes in its tech start-up story. Johnson shoots almost documentary-style, injecting it with the energy that befits the sort of fast, furious and seat-of-your-pants rise of the company, and when things slow down, it makes a point. Giving me real Halt and Catch Fire vibes with its tech puzzles, and that's a good thing. Part of our Heritage.

The fake zoom adjustments and camera wobble are annoying.
Enjoyable humorous film with great performances
