Fascinating

Rating: 8/10 (8 October 2010)

I liked this movie a lot. Another accidental invention. I'm guessing that without Sean Parker's inspiration, Facebook wouldn't have evolved from where it was. Probably someone else would have done it. Facebook is a stripped down version of My Space. More devoted to the chat room aspect as opposed to having your own website. Very good acting, all of them seemed involved. The strong story helped. If I were Zuckerberg, I would be flattered. Maybe he felt he had to disclaim a few things. One of your more interesting and intelligent people. One wonders why he isn't in NASA, the military or corporate world (maybe he consults?) Facebook has become a bit more than he envisioned. I personally see it as a means of expression. Nice look at the computer world for the layman. Reminded me of PI, HACKERS and SNEAKERS . very impressed with Eisenberg and Timberlake. I liked how the Jessica Albright story tied the film together, and gave you perspective as to Zuckerberg's character. Like the lawyer tells him, 'you're not as a**hole, but you try real hard to be'. Almost like he's trying to emulate some of the people around him. He's an obsessive minded programmer who has to take on some of the aspects of corporate chicanery. Can't wait until the DVD comes out so I can watch it at my own speed.
