The movie isn't exclusively about Facebook. It's about the people involved with the creation of it. It is about friendship, loyalty and success. Did you happen to watch this "movie" or did you skip over it to post this ignorant comment.

I wonder if FaceMash influenced Flickchart?

It did not. I didn't even know about FaceMash before seeing the movie. That part of the film definitely hit close to home though when I was watching it!

It's been 2 years and this movie continues to climb my flickchart. Currently my #2 favorite film of all time. Tight race between this, Drive, and my #1 film of all time, Pulp Fiction.

Well... Ppl might criticize 'The Social Network' for being to documentary-like or whatever. But I found Jesse Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield did an awesome job as actors, and the story is quite well told. I quite liked it.

A film that has definitely grown on me over repeated viewings. Everything about this film is near flawless: the script, performances, editing and the Winklevoss CGI is slick; One of Fincher's best and a gem of the new decade.

Highly overrated in public. Not a bad film but quite basic mediocre story film. It's entertaining but that's not what cinema is about and it's also not about stories. Cinematography is pretty good, the script is quite tight and good, only Eisenberg's performance is very good and I do like the themes in it and the irony in Mark Zuckerberg. I would like it a lot more if it would have studied the affects of a social network in people but it doesn't, it's just a basic biopic about the creator of the social network. To sum it up in two words it's overrated and mediocre not a great film like Fight club, Se7en and Zodiac

I can't figure out quite why, but I thought it was a masterpiece. There's just something perfect about the dialogue, the way the characters interact with eachother. I couldn't wait to see what happened next despite the fact that I knew the story.

Garfield steals the show in my my opinion, there's something more human about his character than anyone else.

One of the best films of all time. One of the greatest screenplays to ever grace the screen. Masterful direction and acting. Just a brilliant movie all round.
