  • This movie's gotten universal acclaim. People are comparing it to Steve Jobs and The Social Network, but it has its own uniqueness to it as well. I'm so, so hyped to see this movie.
  • Such a great interview. The fact that it ends with Jay saying “sorry” makes it 10,000x more Canadian lmao

    Used to work there. The most Canadian company ever.

    So they hired a literal Blackberry fan to play Mike? LOVED IT! I had so much fun watching this movie.

    I didn't even know who Matt Johnson was until I watched Blackberry. Can't wait to get acquainted with his other works.

    I watched it yesterday. I thought it was fantastic.
  • Jay, I love that you're wearing a Joy Division t-shirt. During the movie, I was wondering did Jim B. really have an amazing music taste by listening to Joy Division in his car lol

    I really enjoyed the movie. It was funny and entertaining... and they didn't stray from the truth too harshly.
