    A lot of fun to watch

    I'm working in IT for over 10 years now, and let's be clear: Hackers is a movie, .. there's nothing real about the "hacking" going on in the movie.

    There's a few scenes that are horribly done (for today's standards) but all in all I loved the movie. The acting is OK, the soundtrack is great and it changes for the everlasting "chliché" of the IT Nerd.

    It's a movie that could surprise you, especially with the amount of bad movies being released nowadays. It's funny to see Johnny Lee Miller and Angelina Jolie at the beginning of their careers as well.

    If you're looking for light entertainment for one evening, ...

    • Trivia
      The "hacking"-sequences - the scenes where you see the "inside" of a computer - are mostly motion-controlled models, because director Iain Softley thought that actual computer graphics would look too artificial.
    • Goofs
      The Pan Am building seen in the New York City flyover had the Pan Am sign removed in 1992, approximately one year after Pan Am ceased operation, and three years before the film's setting.
