What a Film! truly one of the best, most thought provoking and intresting films of 2010, it answered the question so many of us asked: How did a college computer nerd come up with one of the biggest breakout webpages in decades, Facebook? the answer is simple, he apparently stole it. Jesse Eisenburg (One of my favorite actors) stars as the Harvard computer prodigy, Mark Zuckerburg as he struggles with 2 coinciding law suits both claiming that he stole the idea of facebook from A) The Winklevoss Twins, fellow harvard students who are snobby rich kids and B) Eduardo Saverin, The CFO of Facebook and mark's Ex best friend. The film is fantastic with superb acting from all the cast. The film tells you how the law suits end at the end of the film but there are still loads of moral quwstions such as 'were they right to sue?'. overall a good thought provoking film which is a definate watch.
