It's a classic case of a former teen idol proving to the world that he has more to offer than just choreography-laden arena shows and a new album every four years that really only suburban moms know about.


Justin Timberlake's portrayal of Napster co-founded Sean Parker was shockingly well-acted. The film's genius and well-calculated approach is further enhanced by casting somebody who i'd previously not believed to be a good actor in even the slightest. Fincher's perfectionist "one-hundred takes of every scene or bust" mentality along with Jesse Eisenberg's detached, overtly-cynical portrayal of Mark Zuckerberg meld well together on giving the film a platform for the remaining cast and story to set itself up on. I feel like I could go on and on for at least sixty pages about how beautifully this film is shot. David Fincher directing what seemingly everyone called "that facebook movie" is one of those situations. There are some instances where certain directors just go together perfectly with the project, both in terms of directing style, cinematography preferences, and it's correlation to the overall story.
