He gets inspired to create an exclusive online platform called "Facemash," where users can compare the attractiveness of their fellow students. This controversial and unauthorized project gains immense popularity on campus, but also attracts negative attention from the administrators.
Soon after, Zuckerberg is approached by the affluent twin brothers Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss (played by Armie Hammer), who ask him to develop a social networking website called "Harvard Connection." Initially agreeing, Zuckerberg instead recruits his best friend, Eduardo Saverin (played by Andrew Garfield), and together they start working on their own groundbreaking platform called "Thefacebook."
Thefacebook quickly gains traction and popularity among the Harvard community, expanding to other elite universities and eventually becoming a global phenomenon. As the site's success increases, Zuckerberg faces multiple challenges and legal battles. The Winklevoss twins, feeling they were deceived by Zuckerberg, sue him for stealing their idea. Additionally, Saverin, who was Facebook's initial business manager and financier, finds himself marginalized as the company grows, leading to a deteriorating friendship with Zuckerberg.
As Facebook continues to flourish, Zuckerberg faces criticism, betrayal, and personal struggles. The film delves into his complicated relationships, his relentless ambition, and the high price he pays for success. It also explores themes of friendship, loyalty, corporate power, and the impact of social media on society.
"The Social Network" provides a compelling portrayal of the rise of Facebook and the complex, often controversial, figure behind it. The film received critical acclaim for its script, direction, performances, and its examination of the modern social media landscape. It was a box office success and won several awards, including three Oscars for Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Original Score, and Best Film Editing.
