    Hah. That it does! I like the parallel with "Die Hard is the best Christmas movie".

> Counterpoint: _Sneakers_: the thinking person's hacking movie. Lacks the soundtrack. I always work to music to help focus.

  Lacks? No way. Sneakers' score features Branford Marsalis, which is very different feel to Hackers (which is also great), but imo very evocative of the the playfulness, mystery, & intrigue of the crypto storyline.

    Both have good soundtracks, but Hackers is still better. ;-)
