When this movie was filmed in 1980, there was something like only 1,000 people on the internet. Itbis interesting to see the shoebox sized modem and green screen technology of thatbtime. Still, it's not dated as thiswas pretty much the first hacking flick. It shows the dangers, still present today, of just how unguarded vital computer systems are today, nearly forty years later. For thosevwho haven't seeen it: A teen, in search of a video game company website, unknowingly hacks into the NORAD computer system and orders a missilebattack on Seattle and Las Vegas. Taut suspense, good acting, and great writing keeep you glued to this flick. I give it five stars out of five.
