Luckily they listened to Kevin Poulsen that was technical adviser :) It's very unfortunate that the movie was otherwise so poor. Michael Mann is one of my long time favorites. A hacking movie with the mood and grittyness he's famous for could and should have been awesome.

Not sure exactly where they were wrong, I think I found bot the plot uninsteresting as well as the characters. Also Hollywood tendency of casting jocks and models as hackers :/
