Description

On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea. In a fury of blogging and programming, what begins in his dorm room soon becomes a global social network and a revolution in communication. A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history, but for this entrepreneur, success leads to both personal and legal complications.

An asshole Harvard student becomes an asshole billionaire.

It's extremely well-made. Keeps you continuously engaged and interested for two hours, which is really damn impressive considering the subject matter. But after it's over, I didn't find myself caring about it.
