The Social Network Thoughts

I don’t know if this is me and my personal grudge against Mark Zuckerberg (very plainly, I think he’s an asshole, for a number of reasons), and based on other people’s responses that I’ve read this might be an unpopular opinion, but I didn’t really like the movie. I won’t deny that it was very well done, and the acting was great (I think Jesse Eisenberg was the perfect choice for Mark), but I just honestly wasn’t feeling it.

That being said, it was interesting to see the different perspectives of everyone who was involved in the creation of Facebook. I really sympathized with Eduardo, the poor guy. Mark really had no regard for how things on Eduardo’s end turned out or even for his feelings.

One part of the movie that I actually really liked was the score. I thought it was very very well done, and I highly recommend listening to the music again if you haven’t already.

Overall, even though it wasn’t my favorite movie, it was still interesting to get to go behind the curtain and see how it all went down. Before watching, I had no idea that there were even lawsuits against him over the creation of Facebook. Interesting watch.
