On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea. In a fury of blogging and programming, what begins in his dorm room soon becomes a global social network and a revolution in communication. A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history... but for this entrepreneur, success leads to both personal and legal complications.This was an amazing movie. The story telling was top notch with the back and forth between litigation and how they ended up there. The direction was great as always. David Fincher and Chris Nolan are easily the two most automatic directors in the business today. The acting was awesome. Jesse Eisenberg should be nominated for an oscar and I'm not excited for the Spider Man reboot after getting a look at Andrew Garfield. Even Justin Timberlake was great as an actor in this movie. Granted, there were numerous times where the talkling was too fast or too nerdy for me to fully follow what was happening, but I didn't care because I was so dialed in to the story. It really captures society as we know it today and made me that much prouder for NOT having a Facebook.
I would absolutely recommend everyone checking out this movie. It should end up getting nominated for a bunch of awards in a couple of months and looks to make my Top Ten list as well.
