The Social Network (Movie Review)

The very awaited movie 'The Social Network' is a story about the people behind the social networking site, Facebook. 

Facebook is obviously one of the most important social netwoking sites to date, from keeping in touch with friends to sending invites to getting the feel of building your own farm even!

This movie was interesting because it gives the viewers a look into the background work that was done into making Facebook. Anyone who is fimiliar with the workings of facebook will find the movie interesting and will be able to relate to the objectives with what the site was made for. 

The only criticism for the movie is that sometimes the dialogues were full of all these technological terms that only maybe computer whiz's can comprehend. Even in the movie itself, Eduardo Saverin, the co-founder of Facebook played by Andrew Garfield gets confused with the tech-talk.

But all in all it was an interesting movie that takes the viewer into the world behind the wall-to-wall, the likes, the add a friend and poking bit. 

"You dont get to 500 million friends without making a few enemies." is the thought provoking tag line of the movie. Mark Zuckerberg & Eduardo Saverin, to hell with those enemies, you made facebook happen!
