The Social Network

Here is a movie about a character who seem's like a jerk but in fact has some form of asberger's. He was the creater of Facebook and the youngest billionaire alive. The movie starts with him on a date and his conversation with the girl and it downfalls into the date ending by calling him an "asshole." Which he does not recognize because of his disadvantage of asberger's syndrome. He then carelessly get's drunk and creates a blog at Harvard where he's going to school. He writes about how much of a "bitch" she was and this escalates to more and more people reading his blogs. He then starts progressing his site into more complex things such as rate a girl against another girl to see which is "hotter." This starts some controversy over his blog(s). He then starts the beginning stages of Facebook. He crashes the whole Harvard system because of how many followers he has. He is then starting to get accusations of plagerism and eventually sued by his best friend who says he helped with the idea of Facebook. With his wisdom it helps his case of why he was the sole creator of Facebook. His social life begins to increase as does his progression of Facebook. This movie was well written with great actors and given fantastic dialogue. Grade: A
