But it was, and it's a fictionalization of an alternate universe of what happened to BlackBerry.
Mike Lazaridis is not a meek, push over of a computer geek if you've ever interacted with him.
The Storm wasn't a dumpster fire because it was made in China - that didn't even happen until two more CEOs down the line. It was a dumpster fire because it was a rushed product.
It's far too distracting to actually try and enjoy the movie. And only people who have never been there praises this BlackBerry Storm of a movie as if it was a docudrama or anything resembling a "fictionalization" of what happened.
