Review:

When I heard they were making a movie about Facebook, I rolled my eyes. How could that be worth watching?

But this is one of the best written movies I’ve seen in years. The dialogue alone is brilliant, but the story pacing and character delvelopment are also perfect.

I was blown away. Great movie.

• As if every thought that tumbles through your head was so clever it would be a crime for it not to be shared.
• We lived in farms, then we lived in cities, and now we're gonna live on the internet!
