so 2 days ago (as i think i mentioned) i went to see the social network. i'd been looking forward to it for a while, the fact that i've previously enjoyed the work i've seen by david fincher (of course, who doesn't think fight club is a classic?), also being a facebook user, i was interested to see how it would be put onto screen.
i was impressed, and i really enjoyed it. i can understand why some people might not like it, but that doesn't apply to my opinion.
i'd heard before the story about how mark zuckerburg had stolen the idea of facebook, and i love how the film created drama from something that probably didn't make such a big deal as it did. i also remember hearing that zuckeburg created the website to get over his ex-girlfriend, and i like how she was involved throughout the whole film. i guess without her, there wouldn't have been an open ending.
i thought jesse eisenburg did a very good performance considering this is only the second film i've seen with him in. i would say he suited the role well, and i think he isn't as bad of an actor as some people are saying he is.

and then yesterday i saw the other guys.
i wasn't looking forward to this as much as the social network, but i still thought it would be worth seeing.
it was more enjoyable than i prepared. again, there was a shit audience and they didn't laugh at things that were funny. the atmosphere really does a lot to someone's experience.
will ferrell stole the film in my opinion, at least his character was the funniest. i found it really odd with mark wahlburg, just because you'd never imagine him in a comedy situation.
the ending was a huge let down. i was so bored during the last half.
i think i might enjoy it better the next time i watch it, which will probably be in a very long time.
