Movie Review: In Time

Imagine if time was a currency and you had to work for the extra minutes of your life and if you were rich you could live as long as you want. This is what this movie is all about! The concept is so awesome and the movie don’t disappoint as well! It’s one of my favorite Justin Timberlake movies! And it’s one that I would watch again!

The movie as I said talk about what if “time” was a currency and it’s the story of Will Salas (Timberlake) who worked everyday to get paid enough time to live extra day or two when he met a rich man, Henry Hamilton (Matt Bomer) who gave him enough time for him to rise up the social ladder and enter the high society of the rich. There, he met Sylvia Weis (Amanda Seyfried) and things go crazy!

I loved this movie. It’s so thrilling and the idea of how death can be so close within minutes is just intense! Even though it’s an action movie, it makes you think! How lightly we take time and keep saying, “ooh how time flies”, but imagine what you would do if you truly believed that every minute counts, literary!

The setting of the movie is awesome and the costumes is so pretty! Social classes are divided by their economic statues, so when Will moved from section to section, you can see the difference, especially when he reaches the top class. I do like it when the movie has a lot of detail! So brownie points for them on that!

Let me talk about Justin performance. He was someone I never EVER thought could act! When I heard he’d start acting in movies, I was like, oh huh! But he is excellent! I mean he’s no Benedict Cumberbatch, but he’s really good! He really is someone who can take the heavy load of a movie on his shoulders! Even though the movie had a lot of great actors, but he truly owned it!

This is one movie not to be missed! It’s action packed, touches your heart and really makes you think of how time is very important!

Till again!

Movie Review: The Social Network

The social network is a film about the creation of Facebook and how the youngest billionaire in the world, Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook handled the controversy it came with it.

The movie starts with the reason Mark (Jesse Eisenberg) wanted to be famous and to create something that will make him likable; his girlfriend left him. So, in his sad and drunk hours Mark created a website called "Facematch" which hit 22,000 visits and crashed Harvard Universities network within hours.  

The website got him in serious trouble, but in the same time, it opened the doors for Facebook to be born. Three students in Harvard sought Mark to help them create an exclusive social network site, but Mark is not convinced by their idea and start working on his own site "The Facebook" and here we are hit by the first question: Did Mark Zuckerberg steal those student's ideas?

To launch "The facebook" Mark needed funding and for that he turned to his friend Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield) who is the co-founder of Facebook. Together they took the college social experience and planted it in the virtual world of Facebook.

As the website expanded they struggled to collect the funding it needed to keep the web site running and for in that point the brilliant but very wild Sean Parker (Justin Timberlake)came into the picture and started a dispute between Mark and Eduardo. A dispute that broke their friendship and led them to face each other in court.

The movie hocks you from the first scene with the genius mind set of Mark Zuckerberg. Jesse Eisenberg language, movement and the look in his eyes make you believe that this man is the founder of Facebook. Jesse's performance is remarkable in this film. I felt like he was Mark Zuckerberg more than the real Mark Zuckerberg himself. It was flawless!

The movie was smart, sharp and thrilling. You don't understand half of their conversations, but you want to know more. It also leaves you with many unanswered questions: Who's wrong? Is Mark Zuckerberg a bad guy or a good one?  Was Facebook a stolen idea? Did Mark backstabbed his best friend?

It's no wonder "The Social Network" won 3 Oscars and was nominated for additional 5. The movie was a piece of art. The script itself is mind blowing. How every word was written to serve a purpose and in the same time grab the attention of the viewer. Aaron Sorkin genius work deserves more.
