The Social Network

The Social Network opened this weekend in the UK and I was lucky enough to catch a late showing on the first day of release. As I settled in my seat drifting off through the previews of the miscellaneous rubbish Hollywood cooks up on a weekly basis I noticed the cinema begin to fill, this continued till there was a not a free seat in the house, it is at these infrequent moments in cinema when you know you are about to see something big.
The film opens to two characters partway through a discussion, immediately Eisenberg takes over the scene as his character (reminiscent of Sheldon Cooper) comes to life.
It is after this introduction that the real story begins. In this two hour masterpiece the audience is taken on a journey that defines our generation, the creation of the biggest social experiment in existence.
The film is simply phenomenal, the dialogue is unrivaled and the actors are faultless. It is unknown how much of this story is true but none the less it remains utterly gripping. This is in no way a court room drama as some may suspect (Facebook has suffered many court cases in its time) but more a film which follows characters as they adapt to their new role in society growing alongside "thefacebook". This film has is all: Drama, betrayal and a few laughs for affect, I definately encourage you all to see this film as soon as you are able.
