PBS Documentaries are more interesting

Rating: 2/10 (6 October 2012)

This was a complete an utter borefest. The previews made it look like it was fun, informative, and maybe even a little bit sexy. Guess what? It wasn't.
The story about Mark Zuckerberg is an interesting one, so you would think a movie about it would be interesting. I was wrong. Unless your idea of a good time is sitting around doing calculus while a bunch of other nerds talk about calculus, this movie is a complete waste of your time. Just wait for a documentary to come out about it or read a book, it is bound to be more interesting and exciting.
Basically this is also a movie assembled by Zuckerberg's spurned former business partners and enemies, and is indeed a pretty unflattering view of the man.
Jesse Eisenberg played the part of the socially inept Zuckerberg pretty well, if he truly is the annoying person that the film portrays him as. In fact, if you were to make a movie about an annoying geek, Eisenberg would definitely fit the bill and I'm not sure he is very far off from that character. Justin %Timberlake plays the only interesting person in the whole movie, the creator of Napster, but he is barely in the movie.
I should have known this movie would really be a disastrous borefest, but I didn't realize David Fincher was the director. With the exception of "Se7en" and , "Fight Club," most of his films are unwatchable.
This is a good movie to put on if you are trying to put grown adults asleep before their bedtime. Otherwise just put the DVD down because the studio should pay you to sit through this.
