Review of The Social Network (2010) by The Movie C — 13 Dec 2014
Wow. Who would've thought that a movie about something as trivial as Facebook could be so totally engrossing and unforgettable? Yet here we are. Director David Fincher and screenwriter Aaron Sorkin have delivered a compelling entrepreneurial story that digs deep into the mind of Facebook's founder and the controversy surrounding the site's climb to global dominance.
It has great performances all around and some of the smartest, snappiest dialogue you'll ever find. The story and characters grab you from the very first scene and completely own your attention until the credits roll.
That is a very difficult feat for any film to accomplish but "The Social Network" accomplishes it effortlessly. It unfortunately has a few unnecessarily graphic scenes of partying and promiscuity, but if you can get past that, it's awesome.
This is the best film of the year so far and an instant classic.
