You could not possibly have cast a better person to play Mark Zuckerberg than Jessie Eisenberg. Eisenberg was simply sensational. The story of how Facebook was created is the basis of this movie. And if you do not know the story, please watch this movie and learn it.
The story of a sophomore at Harvard starting the largest social media company on planet earth with 3 billion active users would be an interesting script by itself if it was fiction. This being the true story of this happening makes it just that more insane. Zuckerberg was an absolute savage. Still is actually. And Eisenberg plays the role expertly. He’s crass, he’s an asshole, he’s smarter than everyone in the room and he is determined. I wonder what the real Zuckerberg thought when he watched this.
Anyway, great story, true story, great acting, thought provoking as hell, as he did not “come up” with this company in the most ethical? not sure the word, but ethical way. Fascinating story. This is an OUTSTANDING MASTERPIECE. That is a review.
