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.
It has been one of the most talked about movies this year and after watching it, I do think that it deserves all the attention (both good and bad) that it is getting. But before anything else, keep in mind that the movie is fictional. Yes, well some parts maybe true but this is not a biography movie. This movie is actually based on a book.
I think I enjoyed it more than I am ought to because I am an I.T graduate. Just thinking that almost everything in that facebook is now is done by this young billionaire is just mind blowing. Although Mark is portrayed all thru out the movie as “the bad guy”, you can’t help but love and praise him.
I was surprised with Justin Timberlake’s acting! I actually hated him (his character of course because I can never hate JT) the entire movie. Andrew Garfield, what a dreamy guy. Hnnnnng. And Jesse Eisenberg, who in the right mind can hate him? Really?
After watching this movie, you may bot look at facebook the same way again (in a good way).
