Summary: Mark Zuckerberg has lived another decade and a half of life since The Social Network came out.
You shouldn’t need a film to tell you that tech CEOs are bad. The events that happen in this film are a rehash of a news cycle from a decade ago, the fact is this film feels incredibly dated for a few reasons.
Firstly it feels like a sequel that should have come out a long time ago, rather than this late after the original. Secondly, it is covering things we already know about, when in reality things have gotten much worse since.
Finally the lead tries his best but he doesn’t have a patch of Jessie Eisenberg not a patch.
Overall, needless
2/5.
Pros.
The writing is good for the most part
The pacing works
Cons.
It is dated
It doesn’t hold up when compared to the first film
It states the obvious
