Who want's to know the Facebook?

Rating: 8/10 (28 December 2010)

I can't recall seeing a modern Biopic which was so much talked about than 'The Social Network'. In this age where the contemporary community and media cannot live without the word FACEBOOK, it's always a pleasure and interesting to see how its creators have really made it. The picture full of Mark Zuckerberg and his life after 2003 is experienced not so quietly throughout the movie. The story telling is done via bouncing in between two law suits. Starting from the early days of Marks Harvard life up to where the Facebook hits a million subscribers, the events which occur are dramatically represented without making the viewer bored. Some dialogs slip away without giving a split second to comprehend due to the talking nature of Mark which sounds speedier than a F1 racing car. Coz of this maybe a second viewing is recommended. But the story is pretty neat and easy to digest. Specially as many of us already know what really went in the creation of Facebook.
The important fact is to the get the line between fact and fiction correct. Especially when it's based on true events and the key character is immensely influencing the society as we speak. So you movie gores better read a few articles once your done enjoying the movie. Movies are always pretty dramatic than real life so you may need to realize that one way or the other.
Cinematically 'The Social Network' is a good movie. You won't get bored and the story does not let you down. Its fast as I mentioned before so you might be left out from time to time but catching up is mandatory. Acting is wonderful. I believe Jesse Eisenberg have done justice to his character and hope that Mark Zuckerberg will agree on that. If not we have never seeing the real man and will end up engraving someone else's image on our mind.
Overall what started with an investment of $1000 and becomes $65 Billion worth within years in the plot doesn't sound like a bad movie at all. And that's Facebook.
