Title: The Social Network.
Post by: Chamillitary Click on October 02, 2010, 09:01:10 PM
Just saw this tonight. This movie is amazing. Really captures the generation and the world we live in; loved it.

Personally, I thought the ending was a little weak; but that's just me.

Inception and Shutter Island are still my one-two punches for this year, but this is right up there; must see.

its so hard for me to give up $15 or so for movies these days, would u say its really worth ur 15 or save the money and catch the movie later in dvd or tv?

The book that the movie is based on was from interviews with people that were involved from the start.  Mark Zuckerberg didn't allow to be interviewed though, so while watching the movie take that into consideration.  And there were certain aspects of his life that was made up.

Dramatized 2 the fucking max, lol. The book it was based on was Dramatized, and they took the book and Dramatized it even more. Doesn't make it a bad film, I mean if I wanted to watch a all fact based on his Life I'd just watch a motherfucking Documentary.

I mean in Movies Artistic license is good to keep it interesting, but 2 out right fuck it up lol that's when It goes 2 far. But considering the subject matter on this isn't something important or big, I'd say just enjoy it.

Squid and the Whale and The Social Network has easily establish Jesse Eisenberg as a serious actor and somebody that stands on his own already.  Michael Cera is still suck doing the same role, while Jesse will be getting Oscar nominations for years to come.
