This film provides a very interesting prospective on Facebook and has changed the way I view Mark Zuckerberg and his company. One of the great things about this film is that I can never work out who is the protagonist and who is the antagonist. At one point you think the antagonist is the Winklevoss twins and then you think it is Mark Zuckerberg. Then you think it is Eduardo Saverin and then I concluded it was Sean Parker, who seemed to control the whole of Facebook. It is impeccably scripted and beautifully directed. However, even though it is based on a true story, I am sure that some parts have been made up by the scripters or just exaggerated. I am sure that the real Mark would have something to say about this.

In conclusion I would say that this is a magnificent film that should be showered with Oscars and praise. Maybe make another one like this about Twitter or Youtube?
