- dsr_ 11y agoSneakers is a better film: better written, better acting, and better expression of the motivations of real people... but it also falls down on technology.
- amalcon 11y agoWhat, no WarGames? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086567/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086567/ Granted, that one's more about the cold war than about hacking, but Swordfish is more about... um... I'm not exactly sure what that one's about...
- bch 11y agoI feel like having Swordfish in there at all skews your "weak side" of that list to the gutter. Not fair to Hackers to be so closely associated with Swordfish. Edit: typo
- chisleu 11y agoHaving swordfish in there at all, and not War Games, invalidates the list. Ferris Bueller's Day Off deserves more credit than swordfish on social engineering alone!
- tempVariable 11y agoNot to band-wagon it up, but I agree that Swordfish felt like an overly produced Mad TV sketch of a techno-action movie. Expensive cast - cringe worthy though.
- valm- 11y agoSneakers is an all time favorite of mine. If you like heist movies, I think you will find it to be a very satisfying example of the genre.
- venomsnake 11y agoThe Matrix? It is also unpleasantly fast predicting the future.
