Plots(1)
On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg) sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea. In a fury of blogging and programming, what begins in his dorm room soon becomes a global social network and a revolution in communication. A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history... but for this entrepreneur, success leads to both personal and legal complications.

The movie was thoughtful and "brilliantly simple" just like Facebook itself. Throughout the movie, I almost believed I was watching reality and that Facebook was being created right before my eyes. In short, well thought out to the smallest detail. There's no doubt that Fincher succeeded. But I personally was surprised by the performance of Justin Timberlake, who I had not considered an actor until now... 4.5 stars.

A masterpiece that matures with each viewing. Brilliantly directed, inventively scored by Reznor, perfectly edited, with flawless casting. First of all – unknown to me until now – Andrew Garfield impressed me with his masterful performance (great hope for the next Spider-Man), but the slightly autistic talented asocial Jesse Eisenberg is not far behind him, I believe that in both cases Oscar nominations at least are certain. Every era had a significant film that characterised it, went to the heart of its essence and became timeless, and Fincher's work, in these times of the information technology boom and the fearless entrepreneurship of the young generation, is such a film.

A nice 10 year old film from David Fincher about the creation of Facebook. I don't even know why I put if off for so long. Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield and Justin Timberlake are excellent, the idea is timely and offers a nice insight into the life of a young Mark Zuckerberg. For a biopic, the film is both gripping and quite suspenseful, and above all very interesting. Story*****, Action>No, Humor>No, Violence>No, Entertainment****, Music***, Visuals****, Atmosphere****, Suspense****. 8/10.

Eleven years have passed, and with it Fincher's visual exhibitionism, and here is a film that assaults the senses in the same way that Fight Club once did. The generational thinking that it's no longer about breaking out of the system, but being part of it is "awfully cool." I’m not a nerd, nor do I understand IT, but Zuckerberg does. Like.

Cherchez la femme. Unlike the “other" Facebook, this is timeless in every way, thanks among other things to the fact that it is not about mugbook as such (that would be a bit premature, after all). It only plays the role of a crutch here, not unlike the role wrestling plays in The Wrestler. I have an irresistible urge to click “Like".
