The Social Network

Rating: 7/10 (28 February 2017)

The Social Network is a biographical film based on the founder of Facebook – Mark Zuckerberg's experience. Beside Mark Zuckerberg as the hero, other main characters include Eduardo Saverin, Sean Parker and the Winklevoss brothers. The present timeline in the movie was an accusation from Eduardo and the Winklevoss to Zuckerberg. Narration about how Facebook was invented and developed was interspersed with flashbacks. The movie depicted the hero as a humorous genius at the beginning process but a friendship- traitor in the end of the story (i.e. in the present timeline). The movie was outstanding not only because of its unique narrating structure, but also due to its objective perspective about the person. The movie directly reveal the immoral side of Zuckerberg who was generally considered as a successful, gifted young entrepreneur. Except the complete delineation of the hero, the supporting roles are absolutely perfectly and logically portrayed. The simple and devoting Eduardo, the guileful Sean with a brain of business and single-minded Winklevoss. The betrayal, deceit and interavailability in the characters' friendship finally torn apart the fragile image of harmony.
