Impressed, but not so impressed.

It's entertaining enough, fast-paced, narrative timelines staggered but not cluttered, autobiographical but not boring, and humorous (animal cruelty and Harvard Gentleman really make me laugh). But on the whole, it does not have the aftertaste and depth of David Fincher's other works that can't be returned for a long time.

Jesse Eisenberg did a great job, I can't think of how annoying a tech genius geek can be, he does it all: saucy (hat t + slippers), neurotic, egocentric, lack of empathy.. .... Mark in the film only made me feel disapproval of him in two scenes, one when he said to Sean Parker, "You don't need to be so rude to him (Eduardo)." I kept reorganizing Erica's FB page with a blank face. At that time, I really felt a little bit of sympathy for him, a little bit.

My fondness for The Social Network comes mainly from Eduardo Saverin, played by Andrew Garfield. Eduardo is not a genius, but to me, he is more alive and more soulful. I don't know how much the real Eduardo is different from the movie, but Andrew Garfield's performance is very penetrating, and I was impressed by the injury and anger he showed when he went to court with Mark. Eduardo can't be called noble. As the chief financial officer, the success of facebook has made him taste the sweetness (the invitation of the Phoenix Club or the women who took the initiative to send him to the door), and he did pay a lot for Mark, commercial or advertising, this kind of seemingly The vulgar things Mark looks down on, always have to be done by someone, I like the portrayal of this part, a wicked imperfect person, after all, movies or literature must not completely cover up the weakness of human nature.

On the other hand, it's okay to say I was bought by Andrew Garfield's puppy eyes, ha. There was a scene that made me particularly throbbing. Eduardo pushed open the glass door angrily after knowing that his shares had been diluted a lot, strode towards Mark and smashed his computer with force. At that moment, there was a kind of refreshment that he also let out a sigh of relief, It can be seen that I unconsciously stood from Eduardo's perspective to see the direction of the whole story, and my heart was closer to this character.

    If this film wins an Oscar, the judges will be bitch.

    To become a real winner, in addition to being a genius, you must also have control over humanity, judgment of opportunity, and even a bitch. This film will rekindle the passion of entrepreneurship for many people. GEEK and NERD will play and celebrate. College students and IT practitioners must watch it. Maybe you can see yourself in it. But this story is not over yet, of course we are not over.

The Social Network quotes

  • Sean Parker: You're twenty minutes late. You're gonna walk in there and say you overslept and didn't have time to get dressed. They're gonna pitch you. Case Equity is gonna pitch you. They're gonna beg you to take their money. You're gonna nod, you're gonna nod, you're gonna nod, and then you're gonna say, "Which one of you is Roth?" No, not Roth. Manningham. "Which one of you is Mitchell Manningham?" And he'll say, "I am." And then you say, "Sean Parker says, 'Fuck you,'" Walk out.

  • Erica Albright: Must be nice. He made $300,000 in a summer?

    Mark Zuckerberg: He likes meteorology.

    Erica Albright: You said it was oil futures.

    Mark Zuckerberg: You can read the weather, you can predict the price of heating oil.
