    Darkly comedic and fun!
    I never knew the story of BlackBerry to this depth, and this movie portrays that very well with its dark comedy and anxiety-inducing writing! It does a very good job of showing how the IPhone destroyed the BlackBerry.

    Performances from Glenn Howerton and Jay Baruschel were absolutely surreal, considering they are both comedic actors at heart. Had the pleasure of seeing this at a film festival, and I'm glad I did. This movie is meant to be seen with an audience, a big one. I will definitely be following Matt Johnson's career from here on out. Love this movie and can't wait for it to come out on streaming!
