how it all started
“The social network” is a movie about how facebook was created.
It reveals the life of Marc Zuckerberg and how he invented facebook. It all started when he was on a date with this girl. Unfortunately for him, the date did not go so well, and the girl dumped him. Annoyed with the situation, Marc decides to write on his blog about this girl and insults her. After a long night of blogging, he then decides to create a site called facemash.com and rate girls from harvard : who’s the hottest?
Overnight, the site was a success. Almost 2 thousand students logged in the website.
Seeing as he was a genius when it came to computers and blogs, 3 students from harvard decided to contact him and ask for his help to create a social network for harvard.
After meeting with them, Marc runs to his friend Eduardo and tells him he has a great idea: THE FACEBOOK.
With the help of his friend, they finally create the facebook which became a huge success in a matter of days. Unfortunately for him, he gets sued for copyright and stealing the idea of the 3 harvard students.
The movie was smart and honest. After watching it, I didn’t know if I was with Marc Zuckerberg or against him. He was very smart in creating the facebook but at the same time he did copy a lot of others ideas. But thinking about it, without him facebook would not have been created.
The acting was really good! It wasn’t fake and really seemed real.
For those of you who still didn’t watch it.. I advise you strongly to watch it!
