What people are saying
Updated nightlyThe Social Reckoning is mostly a mixed bag, with the cast doing better than the story. Mikey Madison as Frances Haugen and Jeremy Allen White as Jeff Horwitz, the Facebook engineer and Wall Street Journal reporter behind the leak, get the warmest response, and Bill Burr as Charlie Garrigan lands too. Jeremy Strong's Mark Zuckerberg is a sore spot, and the film's look and pacing don't help. Some liked the humor, but the bigger complaint is that the plot feels familiar and thin, especially when compared to The Social Network. Overall, the performances carry it more than Sorkin's approach, and that's probably why it never settles into a clear favorite.
