  The Social Network 2010

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 15 Mar 2025

  Has some interesting ideas but overall it’s plagued by a long, unfocused story and a number of scenes that simply don’t work. I mostly enjoyed Pattinson’s performance but Ruffalo was grating in his portrayal of a character that seemed to be an amalgamation of Trump, Musk, and a revivalist preacher.

  While the storytelling feels a little clunky and convoluted at times, the chases and set pieces are as exhilarating as ever, and some new additions to the cast like Shea Whigham and Pom Klementieff bring some fun and chaotic energy to the series. I never felt the burden of the three hour runtime and it avoids feeling like half a movie despite being a Part 1.
