Hackers …

My word, that was nice … !

I’ve got to admit, I came home from work, tonight, to find that Virgin 1 was happily showing the 1995 film, “Hackers”.

Which I’ve got to admit, I loved!

OK, granted it may not have been accurate — on the technology front — but it was an entertaining film.

One that followed the exploits of a group of high-school hackers, as they deal with a corporate extortion plot; focusing on the character of talented teenage hacker with a past, Dade Murphy , played by Johnny Lee Miller, and his female opposite number at his new high school, Kate Libby; played in her first major movie rôle, by the ever gorgeous Angelina Jolie.

The fact there’s a few minutes of Angelina in a wet t-shirt in this film, makes it worth watching!!

Now, I’m not going to do a plot summary, here; the Wikipedia and IMDb entries do a far better job of it than I do.

But I am going to recommend that you watch this, if you get the chance.

It’s a fun film.

And the fact the production uses Mac’s definitely grabbed me … !
