Steve Wozniak has criticised Ashton Kutcher's latest movie "Jobs", based on Apple founder Steve Jobs, saying "a lot of what was wrong with the film came from Ashton's own image of Jobs".
"Jobs", which stars Kutcher as the late Apple boss, has received mixed reviews from critics. Wozniak, the co-founder of Apple, talked about the movie, saying, "I saw 'Jobs' tonight. I thought the acting throughout was good. I was attentive and entertained but not greatly enough to recommend the movie. I suspect a lot of what was wrong with the film came from Ashton's own image of Jobs."
The tech innovator also addressed Kutcher's recent claim that Wozniak was being paid to criticize "Jobs," calling his statements "disingenuous and wrong", reported Huffington Post.
"These are examples of Ashton still being in character. I was turned off by the 'Jobs' script. But I still hoped for a great movie.
