Countless critics have hailed TSN as the best film of 2010. It won the Golden Globe for Best Drama and is one of the two frontrunners to take home the Best Picture prize at the Oscars. I missed it in theatres, so watching it at home, after all the buzz, I expected to at least like it - I wasn't disappointed. I loved it!
Based on the book The Accidental Billionaires by Ben Mezrich, TSN chronicles the founding of Facebook, the very popular and widely-used social networking Web site. Jesse Eisenberg plays Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, a very smart computer geek who may or may not have intentionally screwed over a few people along the way. Andrew Garfield and Justin Timberlake give award-worthy performances in supporting roles. Brilliantly directed by David Fincher, with a sharp screenplay and flawless editing, TSN is one of the best films of 2010.
