Director: Dominic Sena
Cast: John Travolta, Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Don Cheadle, Vinnie Jones
A hi-tech thriller about a hacker who is hired for a lucrative job by a brilliant and enigmatic criminal. The film starts with a big and impressively shot bang when a hostage situation goes awry. From then on it's slick and entertaining but not exactly groundbreaking. Credibility is also an issue when two of the world's best hackers are also two of hunkiest guys on the planet.
