Danny Boyle's Steve Jobs biopic is 'opportunistic'

London: The much-discussed Steve Jobs biopic, directed by Danny Boyle, has been branded "opportunistic" by Apple CEO Tim Cook.

The eagerly-awaited new movie about the co-founder of the technology giant stars the likes of Michael Fassbender, Kate Winslet and Seth Rogen, reported Guardian online.

"The Steve I knew was an amazing human being. He's someone that you wanted to do your best work for. He had this uncanny ability to see around the corner and describe the future - not an evolutionary future but a revolutionary future," he said.

Cook said he had not seen either the biopic or the documentary "Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine".

"He was a joy to work with and I love him dearly, I miss him every day. I think that a lot of people are trying to be opportunistic and I hate that, it's not a great part of our world."
