Critics got it right...

Rating: 9/10 (22 October 2010)

It's nice to see that the critics hadn't blown this movie hugely out of proportion like they did to the last film I saw in theaters *cough* (Scott Pilgrim vs. the World). The Social Network, with a 98% on RottenTomatoes, is my second favorite film of the year thus far (number one being Inception). Kudos to David Fincher and Jesse Eisenberg and the rest of the cast for bestowing us with some the most compelling characters I've seen in what seems like an eternity as well as a clear-cut drama without being too vague or melodramatic. I honestly didn't believe, at first, that a great film could be derived from a topic involving Facebook, but... there you go. Anyway, most of the film isn't about Facebook at all, but rather the people in the told events. What do I recommend? Give it a shot, is it a ground-breaking film like the Matrix. No, but still there is entertainment and intellectualism to be found here (although I felt it featured more of the latter rather than the former). I must say though, if you don't no much about business politics , you may be out of luck. Keeping that in mind, however, go SEE THIS FILM!!!
