You seem to prefer the more ham handed tech movies. Oh! Please tell us again how much you hated Apollo 13. Imagine my suprise that you missed the subtleties of such a movie.

Even though it contains a plethora of inaccurate information, that inaccuracy speaks to society. Really, I think it's a fantastic movie, easily on par with Raiders of the Lost Arc, or Episode IV. Only with a much deeper meaning. I really think it’s one of the great movies of all time that depicts the microcosm of a particular counter culture.

There are actually other movies that tell the same type of tale. But here is the thing. I actually liked Hackers for entertainment value. I saw it in the theatre with friends of mine who were in the BBS scene. While we laughed at some of the over-sensationalized parts there was basis for some of the things they were doing. Hell I own both soundtracks to the movie too. Beerslinger, very on point. There are actually other movies that tell the same type of tale. But here is the thing.
