I'm just back from going to see "The Social Network" at the cinema in Eastleigh. A great film and if you get the chance do go and make sure that you see it at a cinema. The main reason for that being that one of the best things about the film is how the music adds to the overall experience and you will need to have a fairly special home cinema set up to replicate to sound in the cinema.
The last film that I saw (Inception) also had a similarly impressive soundtrack that also added to the films tension, excitement and drama. While all these directors are spending millions of dollars on 3D production, including "retro fitting" (Stars Wars will be the next series to "benefit" from the experience) maybe they should be spending that money on the soundtrack.
After all most cinemas theses days do have state of the art sound systems in 5.1 surround sound etc and you can add lots more to the overall experience with the sound than in most cases you ever will with 3D.
At one point, mainly by the use of the music, "The Social Network" made the actor playing Mark Zuckerburg look cool while coding the first version of "The Facebook"!
