About
If you enjoy ’90s conspiracy thrillers where an ordinary person is forced to outthink a shadowy network, this is a solid pick, especially if you liked Hackers; Not for you if dated tech and implausible plotting bother you.
Pros: tense cat-and-mouse setup; engaging puzzle-like problem solving; strong lead performance | Cons: dated tech and fears; plot holes and goofs; uneven pace and suspense
