It makes an untellable story clear and fascinating. It hurtles through two hours of spellbinding dialogue. It is cocksure, impatient, cold, exciting and instinctively perceptive. However, you at least get an idea about the depths of the cutthrooat depravity that was only confirmed by the fact that facebook abuses the trust of its sheeple all the time, and a movie is fun to watch, and deserves a praise even if it is an idealised/sanitized/overseksed version of the sorry reality this movie is based on, and as a movie is well worth a watch, but keep in mind the reality was much darker and more boring at the same time.David Fincher's film has the rare quality of being not only as smart as its brilliant hero, but in the same way. In that it succeeded, but humanizing monsters like Zuckenberg or Hitttlerr is never a good idea in a movie. Artistic liberties were taken in order to humanize these monsters, to make us care and for plot not to be boring. But despite being more positive towards its subject than they would warrant, the movie manages to capture part of the psychopathic nature of facebook and its founding. Zuckenberg was dating a Chinese golddigger/smartdigger/Harvarddigger the whole time and they got married. The only thing the movie did show worse than it was was Zuckenberg incel situation. This guy is far less charismatic than portrayed (and he isn't portrayed as particularly charismatic to begin with) and far more calculating, menacing and Machiavelian than described. He was much more exploitative than movie suggest, as his later love affair with CIA and selling personal data of facebook users for nefarious purposes proved. Fast paced and interesting, this movie tries too hard to portray Zuckenberg in a better light than he deserves.
