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.

English 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. ()

English 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". ()

English 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. ()

English Sorkin's dialogs — perfected to the smallest detail, heady visuals, and Fincher's flawless directing make this “movie about facebook" one of the experiences of the year. All the characters are thoroughly dissected and the actors pour out their best. Eisenberg managed to slip into a nerd's shoes perfectly, and is more than convincing in his portrayal of Zuckerberg. Garfield wasn’t at all dazzling (I still don't understand why he's gonna be the next Spidey), but he came across as the most likable player in this squad. In any case, nothing can be said against him. But, I was very impressed by the duo of rowing twin brothers; Armie Hammer was very convincing in both roles. And the details, the details: the camerawork in the club scene, the lost race with an electronic version of In the Hall of The Mountain King roaring away, and so on. Speaking of the music - superbly done work. Very Ghost V. Drop the "the". Just ‘Facebook.' It's cleaner. ()
