excellently directed and acted out film!

Rating: 8/10 (7 November 2014)

First off I'm not going to go into how close to real life this film is (or isn't) and how much is true or not because I just don't know and am not too fussed to be honest the little I did tho I thought they did very well and ill be speaking about the film not how close it was to real life and all the rest of it.
The social network is all about Mark Zuckerberg and how he invented Facebook and becoming the youngest billionaire in history. This film shows how he got there and the success and complications in doing so.
First off I loved this film as a daily user of Facebook I was intrigued to see how it all started for Mark. First off I loved how this film was directed it was a joy to watch the cut scenes between the court room discussions and how they got to said court room discussions was beautifully done. The casting was nothing short of perfect now I'm going to give some credit to David Fincher for this but Jesse Eisenberg played Mark Zuckerberg so incredibly well you really believed he was a genus who was a bit of a loner, in just how he would presented himself. To make him likable, understandable and at the same time make you realise he wasn't perfect and was at times an ass hole, is one of the biggest compliments i can give to somebody who is playing a character like this, in a film like this. One of the biggest things people didn't like about the film Jobs is that it idealised the main guy too much, made him perfect when he wasn't how could anybody be after becoming that successful. So too see that so brilliantly done in this film is a massive highlight for me. Since this film Andrew Garfield is well known for his Spider-Man role and i thought going back to this film would make me just see him as spider-man but i was wrong he immersed himself into the role and you really understand why he's upset at least i did. I was pleasantly surprised at how good Justin Timberlake was in the film he really sold the character and the fact i didn't like him shows that he did a really good job. A quick note to the man who played the lawyer for Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss he was perfect something about his voice and how he produced his lines really made me feel that this was a proper lawsuit and it was much more serious than it seemed. This takes me to the script which was magnificently done. Overall I really enjoyed this film a lot and thought it was an interesting film that was excellently directed and acted out. A solid 8/10
