Social Network

I watched this movie because a friend told me it was really good. I enjoyed the beginning where the kid is talking really fast, but he's being pretty mean. It was a little like Sheldon from Big Bang Theory and I was imagining all the Facebook fans who went to see the movie and didn't have a clue what he was talking about. Shoot, I'm not sure if they were even keeping up because I was working just to hear every word he was saying. I understood some of it, but I've never known much about that part of computers.

Overall though, while there are worse ways to spend a couple hours. It was a good performance and the movie is enjoyable, I'm just pretty far from Facebook's biggest fans. Actually, I was one of the few who walked away liking Facebook less than before. It seems most people side with the main character, but I think he pretty severely betrayed his friends who helped him build Facebook. But most of those billionaire hotshots have walked all over their partners, so maybe this Mark guy isn't that much different. I say, just watch it like any other story than as a documentary.
