This movie is phenomenal and shows that director Matt Johnson can capture drama. I recently rewatched this film for the second time overall, and it is definitely worth picking up. It has good bits of humor, but the real winner here is the gripping drama. The movie does has a bit of a slow burn to start, but it gets you invested in this small startup company, Robotics In Motion. Once they get their foothold in the telecommunications market space, things take off and the pace starts running, as we see the rise and fall of the Blackberry phone.
I unfortunately missed out on the slipcover, but the standard edition still has a nice booklet with a fairly lengthy essay about Blackberry the phone, Blackberry the movie, and director Matt Johnson.
I can't recommend this movie enough for fans of biographical films.

- EKElijah K.Verified Buyer1 month agoRated 5 out of 5 starsMatt Johnson does it again
A funny and witty film that does a genuinely excellent job at depicting the rapidly evolving culture of this period. The inclusion of the extended miniseries is amazing and really helps provide a more fleshed out version of the film that I highly reccommend. An amazing biopic which should be the new standard for the genre!
- MM16mm MemberMichael M.Verified Buyer1 month agoRated 4 out of 5 starsA solid, if misleading, film presented with a good selection of extras
BlackBerry is a solid movie that explores similar territory to The Social Network, detailing the destruction of relationships and personal integrity as a nerdy college dropout makes it big, with a few key differences that differentiate it from its more famous kin. Also like The Social Network, it presents a heavily fictionalized version of history, to the point of almost being an original story - note the scare quotes around "true story" in the trailer. I wasn’t quite as blown away by this movie as a lot of viewers and critics were, but it is a good film that reveals a few important truths about money and finance. I appreciate the inclusion of both the theatrical and the miniseries cuts, and the discs contain a solid collection of special features, including . I also got a booklet with my copy, which I wasn’t expecting, since the slipcover edition had already sold out. Overall, this edition earns a solid recommendation from me.
