I unironically love that movie. I don't care if it's unrealistic. Also, it has an amazing soundtrack.

It's unrealistic if you take it literally, but what they do is explain how hackers feel when dissecting a server. If you take it as an analogy, it's a hell of a lot more fun.

I agree one of the best computer movies ever. Movies never depict anything realistically, you just only notice where you yourself have some expertise.
