Available for the next 3 days.

This 30yo movie has it all - a who's who of 90's film stars including early Angelina jolie, rollerblades, Playstation, VR, 28.8bps modems, floppy discs…and a dude called Dade. +Jolt cola, +'Penn' Jilette…

Music unfortunately a let down. 9/10.

Looks like WarGames is also available for the same period (thanks to dvsbastard):

        Damn I love Massive Attack. By memory they used "Protection" in the movie but it's strangely omitted from the soundtrack.

      This is an excellent soundtrack! I have no idea how anyone could say any differently!

      This movie got three different CD soundtracks released for it in the 4 years after it was released, which says it all. That doesn't even include the expanded soundtracks that came later. OP's Gibson is very much hacked.

    Well described, don't forget about the pool on the roof that must have had a leak! :P I disagree entirely with you about the music. Hackers had a sick OST

    Music unfortunately a let down. 9/10.

    Amongst my ridiculously large CD collection I have the soundtrack to this movie somewhere, it's pretty good IMO. Leftfield, Prodigy, Underworld.. all good staples of 90s electronica.

    Great, terrible, great movie. I still watch it every three or four years for the reminder that I did nothing with my leet skillz.

    I have to assume sarcasm re: the soundtrack. It's full of early-90s gold.

  • DirtyBoots on 28/11/2024 - 21:53

    Such a good bad movie. Still a third place hacker movie compared to war games and sneakers IMHO.

      Slowest I've ever used was 300 baud at 300bps. BBS would load like chat gpt a character at a time.

      Edit: well not chat gpt, like a local LLM without a GPU.

        At least that's faster than Morse Code 😅

        Saluting my elders for the work they did in the past. I know a few old coders with their legitimately timeless Fortran skills, it deserves respect. Here I am thinking I'm cool fumbling around with Linux.

        I'll enjoy watching this film, from a better, simpler time.

        My first modem was a 2400bps bought in 1993. I remember downloading a movie trailer in 1995 and it took about 4 hours (it could download about 1MB per hour).

      It's not 28.8 bits per second, but 28.8 kilobits per second.

        Slow down junior, there was a time before the kilobit per second

    It's implausible teens vs adult criminals in the style of American teen flick, but with minimal sex jokes and nudity, maximum stupid graphics that supposedly represent hacking, teenagers peering at rolling screens of gobbledegook, saying they know what it is and an abysmal soundtrack. The redeeming feature is the comparison between 90s computing and now. How the world has changed!
