The Social Network is not a movie about Facebook,this movie is how Mark and Eduardo relationship ended up.
The actors are brillant,Armie Hammer just won a award,Rooney Mara will play in the next movie of David Fincher. You should watch the bonus of the DVD and see how Andrew G. and Jesse E. are really good.
One scene proves that TSN is one of the most perfect movie of the decade : The row scene with this new version of "In the hall of the mountain king"

Such an overrated movie. I didn't even think it deserved an oscar nomination. I enjoyed watching it, but then that's it. I thought the story was kinda plain, like nothing really happened, the acting was so-so and the movie didn't captivate me at all. It made me quite upset that Eisenberg was nominated for his performance - that was such an "easy" role and it wasn't anything special. I don't even think he had to make one facial expression in that movie. During this movie I didn't really "cheer" for any of the characters, because I didn't really care for them. Maybe except for Garfield's character, just a little! And I do think that Garfield was good and I do see him with a good and long career!

I can't say I'm a Fincher fan. His wan, industrial lighting may have worked in the days when he directed videos for Nine Inch Nails and Madonna, but I'm tired of the pretentious aesthetic of AlienĀ³, Se7en, and Fight Club. Fortunately, Aaron Sorkin scripts seem almost director-proof.

Beyond the noble anti-heroes popularized by Eastwood and Nicholson, I can't imagine wanting to share dinner with any of these churlish, asocial code-writers. Yet an alchemy of Sorkin's words in Jesse Eisenberg's mouth makes a world of unlikeable wunderkinds watchable, suspenseful, even fascinating.

Sorkin's been vilified for the script's misogyny. And it's important to observe that the story's women are either window-dressing or obstacles to male achievement. Some have made the case that Mara Rooney's Erica Albright is an important exception, a grail-like macguffin Zuckerberg chases in hope of personal redemption. I won't let the writer fully off the hook for his treatment of the fair sex, but I am inclined to weigh Sorkin's history of strong female characters against the dramatic need to depict Harvard's "old boy" network. Like humankind, Facebook seems to reach maturity when it becomes aware of its sexual potential (a.k.a. "relationship status").

If anything, I say The King's Speech is more overrated than The Social Network. The King's Speech has a typical story (told almost exactly like The Blind Side, btw), and apparently it follows the formula for "Best Picture Oscar".

What I have noticed is that those who cry "overrated" never really go into detail as to HOW it is overrated, and those who do say "because it's about Facebook". Those who did like it actually explain why they like it.

Great movie, not overrated.
However, the score beating out Inception was a fluke.

Everyone says "overrated", but I don't. I love this movie. I watched it over and over, and it still fascinates me how much I get out of it. Also, I find it interesting how a lot of people who cry "overrated" are the same people who say "Inception" was the best of 2010.

There are always people to pick on great movies, just because they become popular

Meh. But it might be my own problem, because I don't like movies about making money and I don't care about facebook at all (I have an account, but I don't use it).
I wasn't interested in this movie when I saw a trailer, I wasn't interested while I watched the film and I am not intersted in watching it ever again. It wasn't actually boring, it was just not interesting (if that makes sense).
Technicly, it's a good film. Well made, well acted etc. But it really lacked humanity, in my oppinion. Only by the end of the film I started to actually feel something. But that's the reason why I don't like movies about buisness and making money.
I don't recommend this movie and I sincerely hope it won't win the main academy award.

I personally think this is one of the best, most interesting films of the past year. Acting, music, direction and cinematography are all fantastic.

Fincher and Sorkin deserve a huge amount of credit for making a film essentially about a group of nerds bickering about a website so riveting... amazing movie
