I just watched it. Watching it 10 years late was very funny. They were amazed by the capability of their 28.8 mhz modem and their chip that was faster than a Pentium. The acting wasn’t that great, but it did have Angelina Jolie.

One of my favorite guilty pleasures.

Mine too. For the feel of the movie and the competition between the computer geeks.

All the more reason why George Lucas is a genius. The original Star Wars trilogy still holds up 25 years later, even with modern advances in technology.
