THE SOCIAL NETWORK is one of those movies that does live up to some of its hype.
(B, CapCap, RH, Pa, Ho, LLL, V, S, N, AA, DD, MM) Light morality tale with pro-capitalist content, though one of the movie’s messages is against mistreating one’s business partners and friends, which happens a lot in this business story, plus some history may have been revised and some hedonistic pagan behavior show, including brief homosexual content when two female coeds are shown kissing at a wild college party about 37 obscenities (including up to three “f” words), six strong profanities, four light profanities, and an obscene gesture some sexual comments, implied fornication in one scene, suggestive dancing between two girls in underwear and one guy and two girls in underwear at college party, college students shown playing strip poker at college party with one female co-ed in bra, and two unknown female coeds shown kissing during a college party no graphic salacious nudity but some upper male nudity and female coeds in underwear while playing strip poker and suggestively dancing alcohol use and drunkenness in a college party atmosphere, plus drinking in nightclub girl smokes marijuana bong and people snort cocaine off girl’s bare stomach (she’s in a bra) and, stealing intellectual property, treating close friend badly, deceit, envy, and revenge ends in a couple lawsuits, plus story told where a man was accused of “animal cannibalism” by animal rights activists when he unthinkingly feeds a live chicken some chicken meat. Also, THE SOCIAL NETWORK contains suggestive scenes, brief homosexual and drug references, and plenty of strong foul language. However, the Facebook owner disputes some of the movie’s negative portrayal. Thematically, the movie delivers a penetrating, stimulating morality tale, without coming across as an anti-capitalist diatribe. The acting is superb, and the direction is brilliant. THE SOCIAL NETWORK is a fascinating, impressive, behind-the-scenes look at one of the biggest phenomenons on the Internet. This drives a wedge between Mark and his best friend, Eduardo. Then, Mark gets involved business-wise with another clever, but sleazy, young Internet guru. The problem is, Mark stole some of his idea from two other Harvard students, who are now considering suing him.
Mark is a computer programmer whose idea for Facebook is funded by Eduardo, for 30% of the company. They are the two young guys from Harvard who started Facebook, the social networking website that is reportedly now worth about $25 billion. THE SOCIAL NETWORK is an absorbing, sometimes funny, drama about Mark Zuckerberg and Eduardo Saverin.
