The Social Network

By Christopher Cassidy, Senior Editor

Most of your have heard of the new movie, The Social Network. While most of you are familiar with the pointless and dangerous distraction that is Facebook, its history is shady and mostly unknown.
This movie presents the complex and shady history of the ubiquitous icon, in a significantly biased light. CEO Mark Zuckerberg is painted as a weasel-like cheat, although the movie is based entirely on fact.
It is set in the courtrooms as Zuckerberg is being sued by two entities from his college who helped create Facebook, and goes to long flashbacks of what happened in college.
While this may sound like a boring legal movie, this was actually a very interesting story detailing the shady origins of the corporation that now knows the life stories of ½ the population of the US. I recommend this movie to all.
