Sneakers came out before I was even born but now I feel compelled to watch this old, and perhaps cringe-worthy hacker movie. Hope it does not disappoint.

  "Cringe-worthy"? Hardly. You owe it to yourself to watch it. It's easily one of the best hacker movies.

    it's the best one, by far.

      I'm partial to operation takedown which is a pretty solid representation of Kevin mitnick.

        No way. In that movie Mitnick was outright violent towards Shimomura (he wasn't in real life) , along with a few totally ficticious real-life encounters between the two. Also, this movie depicted Mitnick destroying files and evidence (didn't happen). The script was leaked during his defense. No good. I understand movie magic and drama, but what a kicker to be trying to defend yourself legally while a Hollywood production glorifies you as a criminal while simultaneously injecting fiction into the true story.

  It's not cringe-worthy. You'll enjoy it.
