Atlanta ( CNN ) -- Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has n't seen `` jOBS , '' the biopic of his founding partner that premiered Friday at the Sundance Film Festival . But in terms of how well the movie tells the story of Apple 's heady early days , his review is already in . `` It 's so awful and atrocious , '' said Wozniak , who said he got access to a copy of the movie 's script . `` Unlike the way Steve and I really dealt with each other . `` I did n't want to have much to do with that movie . '' The film , which stars Ashton Kutcher as Steve Jobs , has received early mixed reviews . Some critics said it portrayed an overly fawning image of Jobs , while others praised Kutcher and called it an appropriate , if inaccurate , homage to Jobs , who died in October 2011 . Speaking Wednesday at Georgia State University in Atlanta , Wozniak said he 's also watched a scene from the movie that was released online . In it , Wozniak says `` nobody wants to buy a computer '' as Jobs tries to convince him of the potential . `` Never happened , '' Wozniak said . He elaborated last week in an e-mail to Gizmodo : . `` Totally wrong . Personalities and ... the ideas of computers affecting society did not come from Jobs ... . His idea was to make a $ 20 PC board and sell it for $ 40 to help people ... build the computer I 'd given away ... . [ H ] e always saw a way to make a quick buck off my designs ( this was the 5th time ) . The lofty talk came much further down the line . '' Steve Jobs ' diet lands Ashton Kutcher in the hospital . All that said , Wozniak thinks the movie might be fun to watch , comparing it to `` Pirates of Silicon Valley , '' a 1999 made-for-TV movie that aimed to depict the early days of Apple and Microsoft . `` If it 's anything like 'Pirates of Silicon Valley , ' wow -- that 's going to be so popular , '' he said . `` It 's the the fun part . The story 's when we were young , just like [ Facebook biopic ] 'The Social Network , ' that type of movie . '' Perhaps predictably , Wozniak was higher on a Steve Jobs film being developed by writer Aaron Sorkin ( `` The West Wing , '' `` The Social Network , '' `` A Few Good Men '' ) . Wozniak is a consultant on that movie , which will play out in three extended scenes , shot in real time , that depict Jobs at three product rollouts : the Macintosh , Jobs ' non-Apple product NeXT , and the iPod . `` It 'll have people like me backstage talking to Jobs and him ... doing his type of thing . I guess that 's how it 's going to be , '' he said . `` Very creative . A very different kind of movie . '' In an hourlong chat with Mark Becker , president of Georgia State , Wozniak answered questions submitted by students via Facebook and Twitter . Some of his other points : . On advice to budding entrepreneurs : `` Believe in yourself . You do n't have to win arguments . You do n't have to prove to someone else that you 're right . If you believe you 're right ... that 's what matters . You 've got to follow what 's in your heart . The second piece of advice is : How far you go in life ... it 's how well-liked you are by the people you work with . That will determine how far you go up organization ladders and the like . Be nice to people . Do n't be cutting them down . Do n't be rude and all that stuff . That 's my philosophy . '' On whether he has `` a love affair with Siri '' : `` I also have a love affair with Android sometimes . '' Wozniak , who is no longer involved in the day-to-day running of Apple , has long said he carries around multiple smartphones and other gadgets by various companies . On tech patent wars : `` New innovators should not be blocked . There is some room for patents . We develop stuff and sometimes you come up with something very clever and , yeah , there is some room for that . '' But sometimes , he said , patents are awarded for `` something that really did n't take a great mind to think of -- a little 2-year-old with a pencil would have come up with it , almost . That 's a great problem because sometimes patents are used to inhibit innovation . '' Sorkin : Jobs biopic will be told in three scenes .
Wozniak : Story in Steve Jobs movie looks `` awful , '' `` atrocious '' Apple co-founder says `` jOBS '' may be fun , but is far from accurate . Score: 6 Wozniak says too many tech patents are stifling innovation .
