A story about the founders of Facebook.
Perhaps the most talked about film of the 2010 movie season has not been The Twilight Saga: Eclipse or Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows, Part 1, but the not-entirely-factual film about a website that has changed the way we interact dramatically over the last decade: FACEBOOK.
In what seems almost a natural role for him, Mark Zuckerberg is played by Jesse Eisenberg and does a great job portraying the CEO of Facebook as a genius, a nerd, and perhaps a little socially inept. Aaron Sorkin's screeplay is also particularly good at bluring the lines between "reality" and what the character of Zuckerberg "believes" to be the reality.
However, outside of the scripting and the acting of the young actors and actresses, we do not have anything particularly great. Everything pretty well plays out as one would expect and there certainly isn't anything memorable about the film. A great film to grab for a night with popcorn at home, but maybe not one worth theater money.
