So I saw the Social Network just a few hours ago, and it's a very interesting movie. It really does show the turbulent beginnings of Facebook, as well as how weird Mark Zuckerburg is (if his personality is really like it was in the movie).

I think anyone who's addicted to Facebook, which is everyone, should go and see it.

If you've seen it, what did you think?

My friend said it is awesome; I trust his answer since he is pretty much a movie critic. :P I kind of want to see, but I don't go to movies a lot because I don't feel like it.

You should see it, it is awesome. The events aren't 100% accurate, but it's interesting and there are plenty of entertaining bits. It's not really a documentary, more like a drama.

Saw it today. Twas' pretty good. The main character/creator of facebook reminds me allot like my friend Justin, who helps with the coding for my website.

Plus the OST is by Trent Reznor and Atticus which excited me too. It was amazing.

I loved how the cinematography of the film also.

Amazing story. Each character plays a very interesting role.

I just got back from watching it. it's a cool movie, I liked it, but, if it like, wasn't based on true facts, and it was totally made up, it would be boring. It's just a cool movie and it's nice to see the beginnings of Facebook and learn more about it, as I don't have one...

You aren't seriously saying the only reason you liked it was because it was a true story, are you?

Wow. The movie is more about the creators of facebook and the difficulties it went through then facebook itself. It barely even talks about how the site is made or any of that actually.

Is it just me or does everyone misjudge this film and/or not pay attention to the plot?

I haven't seen it yet, I'll have to get out this weekend probably. Only reason it interests me is that Trent Reznor worked on the soundtrack.. :D I'm interested in it too, that's just how I heard about it though.

It seems like the people who think they're too good for Facebook are the ones ignoring it. "Oh look, a movie about Facebook lol, Facebook is for losers, only someone obsessed would actually watch a movie about it."

Then there are those who are too lazy to find out what a movie's about and just judge it by the trailers.

You don't have to use facebook to like the Social Network, it's a very good movie with a great story.

I want to see it so bad! I was interested when I saw the first trailer a month or two ago. I haven't gotten around to seeing it yet. I'll probably go with my girlfriend when she's free.

I really liked it. I think it's kinda sad, and I don't really know whether or not to hate the main character or not. Definitely worth seein

Its awesome, It is more about the creation and problems for those of you who want to find out about it http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1285016/

It really is a great movie, should definatly be in for some Oscar's

Lol, just so u know, the movie doesn't really say anything about Facebook itself, Its a story of success, power, betrayal, friendship, money, etc. It does have some subtle comments against the prominence of fb in people lives, and how its made us kinda socially awkward, but the creation of facebook is more the backdrop of the film, rather than the centerpiece.

It may not be true, but it was a great movie. But you just have to keep in mind that it wasn't how things happened. And Justin Timberlake was epic.

Outstanding cast and performances of all. You do not get a good movie just because they have few players with talent in it. The director is the one that can be used effectively to carry out a great movie. Flinch has done just that in this film. There is one case I felt the movie was boring or have any unnecessary scene. It has a surprising touch of class from beginning to end.

I think it's too long, some of it's kind of tedious. But it's a really good movie, once it starts up properly :) It's worth a watch.
