PLOT:
It is set in 2003, Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg), is a Harvard student who gets into the idea of creating a website by getting all the pictures and other details of the Harvard girls through Hacking with the help from his friend Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield).Both of them together create a website called “FaceMash”, in which everyone gets the access to view the girls pictures and can rate who is more attractive. Meanwhile, the advent of this new site jeopardizes the Harvard’s network and Mark is punished for obvious reasons.
The popularity level prompts Mark to do some serious job with this, so with his friend Eduardo alters certain things and comes with new ideas for his new social networking site and name it as “thefacebook”. But the popularity of ‘facebook ‘allows both Mark and Eduardo reach new heights but unfortunately their friendship soars, and Eduardo goes to the level of suing Mark.
Since it is real and tricky, the director must have taken every trivial detail very seriously to bring it out as a perfect movie. The movie is quite interesting and the screenplay has been crafted in such a way that not even in a single scene one gets a boredom feel. All the actors have justified their roles and it is also one of the added advantages of the movie. To miss this is a Sin atleast for those who use ‘Facebook’. LOL! Cheers!!!
