The Social Network




There's no denying that nerds have all the fun - with astute knowledge come fast money, hot girls, social power and scandal. This is what The Social Network makes aware to the masses, and it is this message which makes the film so appealing to our Facebook-riddled minds. Who knew that an idea conceptualised by college freshman high on code would amount to a billion dollar business? David Fincher's directorial effort is as slick and smart as Mark Zuckerberg himself, a man who took control of the social networking empire. With an engaging script and young, hot, talented actors at the helm, The Social Network is a scintillating insight into the foundations of Facebook. Take a poke at it.
