Just saw this last night for the first time, and it was a pretty awesome film. Loved the soundtrack and the characters. Mark Zuckerberg has the personality in this movie of a snarky internet-age kid, who can whip out insults and retorts and is really clever and funny, but who probably doesn't make many friends in real life because of it. Reminded me of a story I read about a hacker/troll a couple years back, who could be pitied, but is a bit too much of a dick, and probably doesn't want it anyway. There are definitely some similarities to Citizen Kane, as I have read several reviews say online; it captivates you almost entirely with dialogue.

Plus, I really liked this line: "I love standing next to you, Sean. It makes me look so tough." Eduardo said it, and I thought, "Hell yeah." Also liked when the lady told Mark at the end that he wasn't an asshole, he was just trying really hard to be one. And I heard that the real Zuckerberg isn't entirely happy about his portrayal in this movie, so makes you wonder. Either way, Jesse Eisenberg was great in this, playing a very different character than I'm used to seeing him play (usually he's more like Michael Cera.) And I think Armie Hammer has got to be one of the most awesome names I've ever heard.

If I had seen it earlier, I probably would've mentioned it in that other thread about "Best and Worst movies of 2010" thread. Think I wanted to see it, but never did. Anyhoo...

Wuv, Yer Mom
