A young boy is arrested by the US Secret Service for writing a computer virus and is banned from using a computer until his 18th birthday. Years later, he and his new-found friends discover a plot to unleash a dangerous computer virus, but they must use their computer skills to find the evidence while being pursued by the Secret Service and the evil computer genius behind the virus
I've seen Hackers about 100 times (no kidding, it was the movie I'd watch when I didn't have a clue what to watch) and it never bores me, when I watch it again...It's full of errors, the story's cheesy as hell, the Hacker's Manifesto is quoted throughout the movie (not only in the FBI-agents in a car scene, but in the Razor and Blade telephone hacking scene as well, for instance)
It stars Johnny Lee Miller as Zero Cool, a hip hacker kid who moves to New York, there he meets Kate Libby (a very, very, very, very sexy Angelina Jolie ) and some other hackers, which he befriends. Oh and they solve some mysterious plot by an evil hacker in the meantime...
The soundtrack is brilliant, with tracks by the Prodigy, Orbital and Underworld and there is a scene with the Urban Dance Squad playing in a club
I don't think anyone will love this movie as much as I do, but I do think it's one of those movies that just can't go wrong. If you don't know what to watch, this movie is nice, and "middle of the road" enough to even watch with your grandparents!
I give it a 9.5/10 (because I never got to have that cool 'puter Zero Cool has )

HACK THE PLANET!!!!
Great movie. Sure, it's cheesy as hell, inacurate and over the top, but that's the way I like it, baby!
9/10!

I've just seen it!
And I really really really really liked it! I actually want to become a hacker if every virus and worm look like that! And it is the first movie I like with Angelina Jolie in it! (the woman is like a ghost now) The movie sucked me in and I'm still in that rush! That doesn't happen a lot!
"Mess with the best, die like the rest."
Now I'll hack my own computer! Yeah....
I'll defenitely buy this movie! The soundtrack is awesome, the story is cheesy but very entertaining, the acting is nice, it contains nice quotes and I have to admit Angelina Jolie is kinda sexy
