"The Social Network" Review
Finally got to see "The Social Network" and it was a GREAT film!!! :D I can totally understand now why it's winning all the awards and the critics love it. ;) Very well written by Aaron Sorkin (one of my fav writers), and acted by the cast!!! :D And great use of CGI for the twins. ;)
Really intresting to see how Facebook was founded and everything that went down. I remember back when Facebook originally was only for college students. I was first invited to join it by my friends in early 2005, and now I use the site all the time to stay in touch with my friends, online friends, family, and my fav celebs who have fan pages on there. It's such a huge part of my life now and it was intresting to see how all those features I use were developed. ;)
The cast is just so talented and they are going to be bigger stars from this. ;) Jesse and Andrew were great!!! :D Still amazes me how Justin Timberlake is a good actor, when he was one of my former teen idols when he was N'SYNC. ;) LOL And Armie Hammer sounded SO much like Jon Hamm!!! :O LOL My brother and I both noticed it. And the CGI used in those scenes with the "twins" were amazing. :D Really awesome to know that Armie's head was CGI'd onto the stunt guy's body. :O
I also thought it was funny of the scenes where Mark was writing on his LiveJournal. LOL ;) And all the cracks at MySpace, which I used to be a member of and haven't used in years.
And I loved the use of The Beatles song "Baby Your a Rich Man" for the ending credits!!! :D Very fitting and I love when my favorite band pops up. ;) But I also think the Beatles' "I Me Mine" could have fit too. ;)
This film is my #2 favorite of 2010. My #1 is still "Inception" and nothing will top that from last year. ;)
Anyway, this was just a great film and I totally recommend it and I totally think it will win Best Picture at the Oscars. :D
