Seriously, this is the smartest, most interesting, and oddly the most accurate movie I've ever watched about computer and network security. And it was hugely entertaining, compelling and exciting!
This movie introduced a lot of people to cryptography, tiger teams and ethical cracking/hacking. Also, it had Sidney Poitier, Robert Redford, Dan Ackroyd and River Phoenix.
One of my all time favourite movies.

Is that where they did the handoff with the fake FBI folks? I remember Playtronics was the one large building they broke into.
