Where to Watch Hackers
- PatrickveenJune 16, 2026This movie has always been a favorite of mine. Even though it is from 1995, the plot is still relevant. The acting is not perfect but that gives the movie its charm. One of the main characters "cereal killer" gives the whole movie a humoristic flow. The music is simply epic. Just for the music alone this is a must See. If you like computers and not too serious about it then go check it
- kayllistiFebruary 26, 2025I love this movie. Hackers is a guilty pleasure movie of mine. Is this an Oscar deserving movie? No. Is this movie a lot of fun from start to finish? Yes! And, as a side note, the hacking in this movie is actually pretty accurate even if the visual depictions of are completely Ludacris. This movie is also a great time capsule of the 90's.
- KillerRooJanuary 18, 2026This movie was everything I wanted hacking to be, back in the day (while knowing full well the actual computing and a lot of the jargon were total bunk). It had the soundtrack, the rollerblades, the alternative lifestyles, VR, nontraditional arcade, the internal media references to circumstances. I was basically a mix of Joey & Cereal while wanting to be as cool as Dade or Nikon or Phreak. Always wanted a friendship where I could say “it’s in that place where I put that thing that time!” and have us both know what I mean.
