Roger Ebert

"The Social Network" is about a young man who possessed an uncanny ability to look into a system of unlimited possibilities and sense a winning move.

The Metaplex

The genius of Aaron Sorkin’s script and Fincher’s direction makes a movie about kids typing at computers play like a thriller.

Los Angeles Times

Smartly written by Aaron Sorkin, directed to within an inch of its life by David Fincher and anchored by a perfectly pitched performance by Jesse Eisenberg, “The Social Network” is a barn-burner of a tale that unfolds at a splendid clip.

IGN

The Social Network is a gripping, expertly made and wonderfully performed character study, a very modern story about some very classic themes.

The Christian Science Monitor

'The Social Network,' about Mark Zuckerberg and the knockabout beginnings of his creation, Facebook, is a prime example of an op-ed movie – a film so topical it transcends mere movieness.

MSB Reviews

All in all, The Social Network is yet another masterful piece of cinema, this time delivered by not one but two magnificent filmmakers. David Fincher and Aaron Sorkin employ their mutual perfectionism and meticulousness to create an extraordinarily engaging narrative.

IMDb

THE SOCIAL NETWORK turns out to be one of David Fincher's best films, and that's from a director whose filmography is littered with gems.
