I don't think this has any business being nominated for Best Picture -- it felt like a "Movie of the Week" to me, or maybe an HBO Original Film. Definitely not worthy of a theatrical release, and MOST CERTAINLY no Oscar contender.
I went to see this only because I make it a habit of seeing all Oscar nominated films and key performances so that I can really enjoy the awards show. I knew going in that I don't give a rat's behind about Facebook and feel that social networking is destroying, not enhancing our culture. Suffice it to say that the actors did a good job, talking way too fast and mumbling half their lines -- perfectly depicting the Facebook Generation. Glad I saw this via NetFlix and didn't spend $20+ at the movies.
