The Social Network is razor sharp. Despite its lack of action, the film is incredibly fun and engaging. First, the story is both personal and monumental, while the dialogue is extremely witty. Each character is potent, each plot point builds tension, and every scene propels the narrative. Plus, the subject matter illuminates a major aspect of contemporary life, providing significance and social commentary. Meanwhile, the entire cast is fantastic. The material sets a high bar, but each main player elevates their role. Eisenberg, Garfield, Timberlake, and Hammer all fuel the film with impressive range and subtle complexity.
Furthermore, the technicals of The Social Network are pristine. David Fincher is an efficiency master, creating weighty atmospheres with minimal flash, evoking emotion with empty spaces, and shifting moods with minor details. Color pallets are thematic yet minute, camerawork is powerful yet gentle, and composition is clear yet natural. The editing swiftly weaves perspectives, the sound softly underscores the narrative, and the soundtrack is uniquely fitting (setting a cold yet modern tone). Overall, the filmmaking of The Social Network is a phantom force, producing a robust experience without revealing itself. All together, this film is a fountain of craft.
