About a guy who created a web site that was a tremendous success.
Entertaining tale about youth and business. I laughed out loud on several occasions (the beer bottle throwing was probably the best moment). This film is also about something deeper, namely, the contradiction - even incompatibility - which exists between a person and what he sells. Scarface (1983) was a previous handling of this theme. In that case, it was shown that a guy who sells drugs should not take drugs. In that film, he took them, and self-destroyed. In this film, the selling item is friendship. In the last minute or so of the movie, there is a line about being an asshole as opposed to trying to be one. This line is interesting, especially when compared with a very famous one by Husserl, which says that "to be reasonable is to want to be reasonable" (in "Cartesian Meditations").
