Youtube has this free with ads right now (as of july '19) just so you know. It's not a great movie but it does have some fun stuff in it. I saw this when it came out in the theater and was mesmerized by Jolie and the slew of technical jargon but a special effects show for the hacking. It glorifies hacking, of course, which sells it for teens (that and Jolie). It's mostly a goofy story of a wanna be elite hacker accidently downloading the wrong file and an elite hacker working for a corp wanting it back. Jonny Lee Miller (aka Sherlock Holmes) and his mother (Alberta Watson RIP) having to move to the big city and a new start for her son and his past hacking troubles. The high school setting is more a very dated techno-nightclub scene and a budding romance with Dade and Jolie (think geek meets superhot). Their merry band plays around with causing problems for a FBI agent with their skills as the two battle each other for supremacy. The big ending is one of surreal effects to mask the actual lack of hacking really going on. But it's fun if you don't enter into watching it with a too critical eye. It sells for 14.99 right now and that's vastly overpriced. Try youtube.

For a movie set in the 90's, it was doomed to failure if judged on being technically accurate. But for that initial setback, Hackers gets a surprising amount right. It get's the ethos, underground terminology, and outsiders but fun raiser attitude of many right. It captures the emotional high and delight that Steve Jobs himself had in building phone hacking equipment, for instance. It also foreshadowed something not seen until a decade later, concerted global hacktivism for a just cause ala Anonymous. Both then and now, hackers are usually portrayed as world dominating super villains of unchecked power. But Hackers portrays a lighter side of both the good guys and the bad guys in this fun take on the culture of technolust.

Lets face it, its hard to make a computer movie interesting. This movie is inaccurate and at times pretty cheesy, but it's still a lot of fun to watch. If you enjoy computers, definitely give this one a watch.
