The accomplishments of visionaries Steve Jobs (Noah Wyle) and Bill Gates (Anthony Michael Hall) revolutionize the 20th century.

It's fair to say that "Pirates of Silicon Valley" established the standard that all worthy movies about the computer revolution will need to follow.

Martyn Burke has taken the battle fought in the microchip trenches at the dawn of the computer revolution and turned it into a wildly entertaining geek tragedy with the stylistic feel of true art.

Hampered with a slow start, the movie comes into it's own and serves as a great biography of the rise of Microsoft and Apple. It shows a unique view of Apple and Steve Jobs that you can't find today as the film was made when Apple was on its knees, well before the success of the iPhone put them on top of the world.

I loved it a lot, without a doubt one of the best movies I have seen that talks about the history of the two famous companies that we know today, A good story where he tells us about the beginning of these two companies, how they treated each other, what they did and what conflicts they faced, this film will undoubtedly be liked by programmers, How to young people or those who are not programmers And to those who have heard of these their companies and did not know their origin and what they did.
