BLACKBERRY - Kritiken

Johnson’s rollicking comedy starts cutting its characters down to human size right off the bat.

...it’s hard to watch the final 30 minutes of the film without screaming at the screen and wondering how the smartest guys in Waterloo, Ontario, could have been so incredibly dumb.

Glenn Howerton är i toppform. Han vräker ur sig sylvassa repliker, han är glupsk som en haj och han får ofta raseriutbrott, ombord på flygplan eller i en telefonkiosk (filmens bästa scen).

Jay Baruchel and Glenn Howerton deliver engaging performances in this entertaining tale about the rise and fall of a smartphone pioneer.

...Johnson isn't simply telling a story of a Canadian success and failure. Underneath it all is a very real feeling that this will happen again.

Johnson’s film – ... – turns the BlackBerry’s meteoric rise and precipitous fall into a cautionary tale of underdogs beating the system only to let it divide and conquer them.

Glenn Howerton is the Molten Core of Hilarious Microbudget Biopic BlackBerry

...a MoneyBro movie par excellence...

Glenn Howerton is on top form.

...ett ode till samtidens ohejdade materialism där kapitalismen är den gemensamma religionen, shoppingcentret den nya kyrkan och entreprenörerna dess profeter.
