The Social Network

Stars:
3 3/4 stars

You don't get to 500 million friends without making a few enemies.

On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg 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.

Megan's Movie Review:
This movie was not what I expected it would be. I will be honest, I did not want to see this movie at all and my husband wanted to see it so bad! I had heard it was good but I had no desire to see it because why do I care how Facebook came about? Well ... like I said it wasn't what I expected and it wasn't like my husband expected. I thought it was actually pretty good and my husband didn't think it was as good as he had expected. Okay, this movie was not an amazing movie, have to have on my shelf, kind of movie. It was just interesting. The story kept my attention and I was intrigued by how Facebook did come about. Now I know movies sometimes portray the real people incorrectly, but in the movie, Mark Zuckerberg seemed kind of like a punk. He somewhat stole the idea from these guys, but then I'm on Mark's side because he knew how to code it and did it all by himself. But how he betrayed his best friend in the end.. so messed up! I felt awful for Eduardo. He was so smart it was crazy and I did feel bad for him in the end, because it seemed like even though he created this website where you could make all these friends, he seemed to have messed up all his own friend relationships leaving him with nobody. They could've taken out the sexual scenes in the movie. It was stupid to have them in the movie and I really didn't like those parts at all. Why are they even in movies? They are pointless and freakin stupid. Anyways.. that's all I have to say about that. But this movie was very interesting and I was glad that I watched it even though I didn't want to in the first place.

Facebook people, what did you think about this movie?!!
