“Hackers” is interesting because there’s two depictions of hacking in the same movie.
One is flying through the holographic city of files.
The other depiction is quite realistic: they show the protagonist spending all night reading through many pages of assembly to reverse engineer a virus, people do social engineering, etc. “Hackers” made this seem cool too!
- dylan604 2y ago"Sneakers" - 1992 "Hackers" - 1995 Sneakers had them going through the trash, setting up a mark on a fake date, and staking out a building and the security company it used with all sorts of stuff not once looking at a computer screen to "hack" three years earlier. I like Hackers for the campy side of things, but Sneakers will still take a higher spot on my list.
