Review of Startup.com

Startup.com (2001)
8/10
An Excellent Record of Young People and Young Businesses
7 November 2001
I recently took an equity stake in a new technology company that closed its venture capital financing on Sept 14, 2001. As a Java programmer working on e-Business applications, this movie clearly hit on all cylinders.

Even if you aren't in the tech business, this is a fine, character-driven documentary. Being 41 years old, I miss the idealistic, energy-filled enthusiasm of persuing a dream as a twenty-something. I do not miss the occasional lack of wisdom and unrealistic dreams that accompany youth.

This is a real drama. The personalities interact in interesting ways, making this a true character drama. The plot of trying to fund and build a business brings out the best in the players and the occasional worst.

I recommend this movie for anyone, but if you have only a peripheral involvement with the dot.com, this will be especially interesting.
