"You said they were the best engineers in the world!"

"I said they were the best engineers in Canada."

Seems to have gotten decent reviews: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/blackberry

I run hot and cold on Baruchel depending on the film, but he seems ok in this (despite not looking much at all like the person he's playing), and rise-and-fall tech stories don't get much more Canadian than this one.

Yeah, Baruchel really doesn't look like Lazaridis... and continues to basically be himself in roles.

The trailer didn't do much for me, so I'm surprised at the decent ratings on RT.
