My friends, this is the best movie of 2010!

Rating: 10/10 (7 October 2010)

Please do not ignore my following movie review of the grand masterpiece "The Social Network". Yes, I will confirm that there will be plenty of corny puns "like" in my other movie reviews; but you don't get to 500 million puns without making a few enemies. "The Social Network" is Director David Fincher's captivating tale of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg's creation of the infamous social network and it has my affirmation as the best movie of the year. Fincher's precise direction first connects with Zuckerberg as a Harvard University student in 2003 when he develops "Facemash", the "who is the hotter Harvard gal from the two" site that dismayed many of the Harvard fems, but was a major hit with so many hits on campus. Zuckerberg got facemashed out of angst of being dumped by his girlfriend one Fall evening in 2003. "Facemash" also proved that Zuckerberg had no problems hacking away in the Harvard network. Facemash was the genesis of what turned out to be the social networking book of all, Facebook. Zuckerberg partnered with his only friend on campus, economics major Eduardo Saverin, to develop Facebook- a social network website where (you know what it is! Hello!) The rest of "The Social Network" logs on to the rise of Facebook, and the legal depositions that sucked in Zuckerberg by those who claimed that the Facebook idea was theirs; including the Harvard rowers Winklevoss twins and their diva pal Divya Narendra, and even Saverin himself takes a swing at Zuckerberg in this Boston Sue Party. The opportunistic Napster founder Sean Parker also gets in the picture not as an angry plaintiff towards Zuckerberg, but as one that makes his mark on Mark by seizing opportunities to put Facebook on the profit map. If you are still reading this and are not a napster falling asleep on me, Facebook me! God Bless you for putting up with the puns. Speaking of which, I am running out of puns so its time to hit the Punbook. OK, I am back on "The Social Network" serious (sort of speak) review state. Aaron Sorkin's screenplay of the movie is an ingenious film libretto that delivers in not only characterization but also in authenticity of today's social taxonomy in and out of the net. Moreover, Sorkin's script highlights the thin line between friendship and ownership. Sorkin is in for a Best Screenplay Oscar nom. Director David Fincher takes Sorkin's words into the vision of the narrative that makes it a tour-de-force triumph that will also place Oscar nomination status for King David. The thespian network of "The Social Network" were not lagging on to mediocrity, they were exemplary. Andrew Garfield was terrific as the gullible Saverin; Armie Hammer & Josh Pence sure hammered it down in playing both Winklevoss twins in two parts, head and body; Rooney Mara was all marvel & bright as Mark's ex-girlfriend Erica Albright; Justin Timberlake was bringing his fine acting back by delightfully loading down another commendable performance in portraying Sean Parker; and Rashida Jones's work as legal assistant Marilyn Delpy was all legally not-wrong in my book. But it was Jesse's world! Jesse Eisenberg's starring performance as Mark Zuckerberg is by far one that should be posted by the Academy as the one to beat in the Best Actor Oscar race. Eisenberg portrayed Zuckerberg with such an authentic multilayered mode that its thespian algorithms formulated Jesse in the elite club of today's best young actors. There is a lot more to "like" of "The Social Network" that could be depicted in my review. But it seems that I have received a request to end my review, which I will do. "The Social Network" is a cinematic magnum opus that will connect to many members of the movie-going industry and many members of the movie award industry. It is the movie event of the year that should be attended by all! ***** Excellent
