The Social Network

The Social Network met my expectations of informing me of the establishment, creation, legal disputes, and inner workings of the development of one of the greatest social phenomenas. The directors took an interesting perspective, showing the questioning of Zuckerberg, Eduardo, and the Winklevos' throughout the movie which was in the present. Back story was then provided; events from the past supporting the accusations and explainations given by the characters that lead to the controversy and creation of facebook. THe directors did a great job with providing its audience with a great coherent, detailed, story line of how facebook was created.

The Social Network captivated my interests as it not only explained the historical signficance of the establishment of facebook, but it also provided a youthful aura to catch the attention of teenagers. Scenes in the movie were relatable to todays generation of teenagers. The movie, being a drama, made me skepticle during certain scenes; wondering if in realtiy, it actually played out in such a way.

Before viewing the movie, I wondered about the talent of the actors featured in the film. Each of the actors exceeded my expectations as the actors were believable and committed to their roles. Zuckerberg, played by Jesse Eisenberg, was phenomenal. I would recommend audiences to view this movie, I think it is worth two hours of any ones time.
