"The Social Network" is one incredible movie on the life and times of facebook founder - Mark Zuckerberg. It shows how melancholic, egoistic, workaholic Zuckerberg, who can't stay close to anyone, starts facebook accidentally, and later pulls the rug on his real pal and co-founder. David Fincher directs awesomely and uses some dramatic narrative techniques seldom seen in Hollywood movies - flashback and forth. He paces the movie with extreme delicacy and precision and is helped by Sorkin's swift dialogue and some great music. Justin Timberlake as the candyman and Andrew Garfield as co-founder of facebook besides the Harvard twins and Zuckerberg's only girl-friend all stand out. Inspite of some pusating courtroom dramat that forms the backbone of the movie, the movie shows the many faces of human behaviour that nudged facebook into a $25 Billioon (now$60 Billion) company. Even if you are not facebook user, you will get curiouser. Well worth watching.
