<B>The Hacking is unbelievably realistic </B>




Mind you, I don't think "Real" Hacking would be very exciting, Hours and hours at the DOS Prompt

Yeh' Top film, the opening scene was a minter
Sorry, I have to say this, the TVR would have left those SUV's for dead, but it's only a film I suppose

Be good...C

Must be a different film to the one I saw!

I thought it was pants.

The hacking stuff was total fantasy, and all wrong.

why do films spend all that money making a pretend operating system/download/website/mail app when they could use a real one.

I saw a film one where they just use IE4 it was therefore rather realistic!

Those American SUV's are bloody fast you know - don't you remember the scene in MI2 where Mr Cruise on a motorbike couldn't outrun a Jeep?

Oh yes!

RE MI2,

One MBike has road tyres as ridden by Nathan and the other has off road tyres as used by the Bad guy.! I thought the same until I checked it out in slow mo. (Sad)

Cool

well i just saw final fantasy 2 and it was godawful. still good graphics like, but a terrible terrible storyline, and the people all walked like they were coming on to each other big time. Also considering there were only 2 chicks, it was just disappointing to see that one of them was very very blokey. I mean I'm all for equal opps and all that but even in computer generated flicks, you still want decent eye candy do you not?!!!

The best bit was definately Halle Berry's T1T's

The TVR chase was good too - and the gunfight......

Vinnie Jones was seriously poo though.....
