The fast-forward button is your friend.

When I first read the description of the movie, I saw "They let a hacker out of prison." I immediately thought of Lizzie Andrew Borden (July 19, 1860 - June 1, 1927) was an American woman who was tried and acquitted for the 1892 ax murders of her father and her stepmother in Fall River, Massachusetts. It may have been more interesting with a Lizzy wannabe. However, they meant a computational entrepreneur who got a little enthusiastic. He is recruited to help the FBI and other US agencies that are getting a bit friendly with Made in China. It is not anything about computers. However, they have to do something to make it look like computers care about action characters. They used to show computers as tape reels "Desk Set" (1957), then blinking light panels "War Games" (1983); now they show simulated microscopic looks at integrated circuits... shades of "TRON" (1982). The movie is really about a bunch of good-guy buddies tracking down a ruthless cabal of bad boys before they can do evil things. They are hampered by governments and slow down enough for s-e-x and hand-to-hand. Will they get their quarry and ride off into the sunset? Or will the NSA have its way and incarcerate the good guys, allowing evil to have its way and maybe even a sequel?
