For now, how about a few a bullet point reviews?
"The Town"
- Lackluster script
- Two-dimensional characters
- Strong directing and acting, but fails due to its aforementioned weakness (not to mention the totally cheesy ending).
- C+
"The Social Network"
- Pointed social critique
- Shows how ambitions warps one's personal relationships in the modern age
- Impressive performances from Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, and Justin Timberlake
- Typically strong direction from David Fincher. Snappy dialogue from Aaron Sorkin.
- Does not quite live up to the hype (but honestly people were comparing it to "Citizen Kane?" How could it live up to that level of hyperbole?)
- Will probably get better upon repeat viewings
- B+/A-
