The Social Network by David Fincher, 2010 (PG-13)


with Jesse Eisenberg (To Rome With Love, Solitary Man), Andrew Garfield (Never Let me Go), Justin Timberlake (Trouble With the Curve, Bad Teacher), Armie Hammer (J. Edgar, Mirror Mirror), Max Minghella, Brenda Song, Patrick Mapel, Rashida Jones (Our Idiot Brother), Rooney Mara (The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo), Barry Livingston, Joseph Mazzello, Marybeth Massett

Director David Fincher's biographical drama chronicles the meteoric rise of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg) from Harvard sophomore to Internet superstar, examining his relationships with co-founder Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield) and Napster founder Sean Parker (Justin Timberlake).

This movie won everything the year it came out. The story is well built, the acting, I guess, wasn't so bad, although you have to like Jesse Eisenberg style, since he always play the same smart ass guy in all the movie I saw. The movie make Facebook look nice, and his owner even nicer, which gives me issues, despite the fact that I actually use Facebook on a daily base. It is a movie of the moment, I would like to see the reaction of people ten years from now. It will belong to history, as a document to our past, perhaps like msn, icq... Now, what happened to David Fincher? He is the guy that made one my favorite movies of all time, "The Game", he did Fight Club, Seven. And now he does children tale "The Curious Case of Benjamen Button", followed by the adolescent movie "The Social Network", the weak "The girl with the Dragon Tattoo" American version. Well, what happened to David Fincher?
