The Social Network
Director: David Fincher
Year: 2010
Stars: Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, Justin Timberlake
This was better than I was expecting it to be. I'm not sure exactly what I was expecting, but not something this, well, enjoyable, or funny. I didn't really think I was in the mood to watch it when we went to the cinema, but after 10 mins I'd settled into the movie and was happily going with the flow.
The Social Network is, perhaps unsurprisingly, all about Facebook and how it began. It tells how Mark Zuckerberg created the site, and how he ended up facing two different law suits.
Possibly the thing that impressed me most about the movie is the way it manages to portray almost everybody sympathetically. You care about, and can empathise with, almost everybody.
Rating: 4 out of 5
