"Social Network" is a movie for young people. It records the biggest change in this era: the change in the way of communication. The extraordinary significance of social networks such as Facebook and Twitter is that it has changed the ecology of the Internet, substituting the spontaneous and disorderly state of the Internet into an organized, hierarchical, and real-name social network. "Social Network" chose a popular theme. David Fincher's film grasped the undercurrents in the hearts of contemporary young people, and put the themes of friendship, ambition, and betrayal into the film, making this story universal.
"Social Network" is not lacking in both form and content, and it can be regarded as a masterpiece with both form and content. The film has added many novel expression techniques and narrative structures, as well as special effects, photography, and editing. It is also the world's first movie filmed with a 4K digital camera. In the film, the twin brothers play the same role and involve seamless special effects processing in the later stage. There are similarities with "Slumdog Millionaire" in terms of editing and narrative structure, and both are cross-narratives. As a result, "Social Network" has become a master of narrative expression, editing, high-tech shooting and special effects processing.
