Half true story

Just watched “The Social Network" courtesy of Fileserve. Thank you.

Verdict: Not a forgettable movie.

Going back from the moment when I saw the trailer on TV, I already promised myself to see it. Basically, I was dragged by the story behind Facebook. It’s part of the human nature to dig into matters that are quite interesting. I  thought the movie was based on a true story but Mark Zuckerberg personally opposed that. I was disappointed, but later (after reading some article online) I realized that the movie was a work of art. Not everything that happened in real life can be put into a screenplay (some are edited, of course). Those movie people also wanted to make their movie a major hit. With that I say, Mark Zuckerberg’s real story didn’t meet “their” standards.

I haven’t figure out why I admire this movie. Maybe because it was about of Facebook, or because it’s about the youngest billionaire on earth, or it involves smart people, or because of my crush having some resemblance with Jesse Eisenberg’s(Mark) character, or probably because I find Andrew Garfield (‘Wardo) hot. I couldn’t pin point my reasons but there’'s something about this film that makes me smile.

If your one of my classmates, you could tell who I’m talking about. I hope my batch mate won’t find this blog. I hate to admit I got a huge crush on geek.

PS: I wish they will also make a film about Google.
