The Social Network
Regie David FincherHarvard Student Mark Zuckerberg ist alles andere als sozial: der schüchterne, außergewöhnlich intelligente Computernerd hat außer seinem Kommilitonen Eduardo Saverin wenig Freunde und keinerlei Erfolg bei der Frauenwelt. Als Mark sich eines einsamen Herbstabends an seinen Computer setzt und beginnt sich in die Netzwerke seiner Universität zu hacken und Informationen über die weiblichen Studentinnen ins Netz zu stellen, weiß er selbst noch nicht, dass er etwas begonnen hat, was später als Internetportal Facebook Furore machen wird. Aber: Man kann keine 500 Millionen Freunde gewinnen, ohne sich auch ein paar Feinde zu machen - und in Zuckerbergs Fall fallen diese oftmals in ein und dieselbe Person. So ist der Weg an die Spitze des Multimillionen Dollar Facebook-Imperiums nicht nur gesäumt mit Partys und (sexuellen) Erfolgen, sondern auch mit Verrat und diversen Klagen.
The Social Network Rezensionen & Wertungen
- Ty Leet14. April 2025One of my favorites, hard to find a better duo than Fincher + Sorkin.
- LivewireAdmin6. August 2025Sometimes I wonder who the best collaborators are in Hollywood. Spielberg and Williams, Nolan and Zimmer, Scorsese and DiCaprio...and then I think about The Social Network and how Fincher's directing and Sorkin's writing was a match made in heaven. Everything about this movie is perfect, no notes. Also worth mentioning that this movie was the birth of another fantastic collaboration - Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.
- Tanalien12. Oktober 2025In Hollywood, the rule of thumb is one page per minute of screentime. Aaron Sorkin’s shooting script is 163 pages, but the final cut of The Social Network is just under two hours; the way he heard the dialogue in his head was rapid. To fit 163 pages into two hours of screentime, the film’s director, David Fincher, had to hit all his marks: establish setting, build character, and convey dialogue coherently. What does that make a director do? Collaborate. Fincher had a precise vision for The Social Network, yet he pushed his screenwriter, cast, and department heads to their creative limits. To paraphrase Jesse Eisenberg, Fincher thought about everybody’s job more than they did. Everything in the film is deliberate. You can pause and sift through the layers to find a satisfying core. But make no mistake: the primary experience of watching the film is absolutely thrilling.
- Jamie Talbot22. Mai 2025Absolute incredible movie. Gets better after every watch. It is incredible work by Fincher. Eisenberg’s performance was amazing, I really wanted to punch his face at multiple points during this film which is a good thing because he played Mark Zuckerberg perfectly. I just desperately need to watch the 4K version of this!
- Adam Abaza10. Februar 2026The story of Facebook's founding, but not as an inspiring success story; rather, as a tale of ambition, betrayal, and isolation. The script is clever and fast-paced, and the dialogue is powerful and charged, revealing psychological conflicts more than the events themselves. The direction is calm and confident, and the music adds a sense of coolness and distance between the characters. The film doesn't need action to engage you, because it relies on human conflict. A mature and intelligent work, and one of the best films of the decade.
- infected4. Februar 2026The film does an accurate and wonderful job of showing how much of a skeevy lowlife subhuman Zuck is, despite him being the protagonist. Excellent watch and highly entertaining.
- Julie Jones12. Januar 2026This movie takes the real life story of Facebook and creates a well crafted story! Very much entertaining and very well put together You will never get bored watching it. I would recommend it
- Dahuchsi17. November 2025Straight to the point, no fluff really. All actors seem to portray their characters well, and the story flows well. It’s worth a watch, especially if you know nothing of the story origin of Facebook. It’s a business tale as old as time. Dare I say, even Justin Timberlake plays his role well and looks a bit like the character even. It’s not a biography, it’s more cinematic I’d say and I’m sure there are a few liberties as such. However, the film does it well and the plot is concise and easy to follow.
- wonderrxjr13. November 2025Any time my Dad thinks I'll one day move to Silicon Valley I should show him this movie since my glamorization of the tech lifestyle is going away fast
- Nathan Magreta3. November 2025The social network is a modern Masterpiece that tells the story of Facebook's origins in such an amazing way I doubted it was real, along with amazing directing and an exceptional Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, and Even a good Justin Timberlake.
- mickerdoo13. Juli 2025Reminder you can't trust anyone when it comes to money and ideas. You really have to watch it with the quick dialogue. Great performances.
- Persona983. Juli 2025But it does, nonetheless, contain some inaccurate details about Zuckerberg's life. However, cinematographically speaking, there is nothing to complain about.
- David Daniel3. Juni 2025Not only a cinematic masterpiece, but a perceptive and prescient portrayal of the corrupt and maladjusted creators of the social network
- pipanni21. Januar 2025A very entertaining movie with excelent performances throughout. Unmissable.
- Hakihiko16. Dezember 2024A Riveting Tale of Ambition and Betrayal "The Social Network" is a compelling and sharp portrayal of ambition, friendship, and betrayal in the digital age. The film offers a fascinating dive into the origins of Facebook, with Aaron Sorkin's masterful script delivering razor-sharp dialogue and a narrative that keeps you hooked. David Fincher's direction complements the story perfectly, with his trademark precision creating a tense yet engaging atmosphere. Jesse Eisenberg gives a standout performance as Mark Zuckerberg, bringing both brilliance and moral ambiguity to the character. Andrew Garfield also shines as Eduardo Saverin, adding emotional weight to the fractured friendship at the story's core. The film's score, crafted by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, elevates the tension and underlines the high-stakes nature of the events. While the movie simplifies some of the real-life complexities for dramatic effect, it remains an engrossing exploration of power, success, and personal cost. Overall, "The Social Network" is a brilliant and thought-provoking film that resonates even years later.
