    WOW, what garbage, the "bad guy" manages to hack into a nuclear reactor from the internet, which takes skill because there isn't one nuclear reactor connected to the internet or any external network. The bad guys end game, flood an open pit tin mine, to cause a shortage because I guess that one mine produces more than the thousands of other tin mines..... don't waste your time or money. I will hand it to the hero, they made it look like he almost knew what computer code was.

    Bad bad bad. Try this for the plot: the cyber terrorists cause the pumps in a nuclear reactor to fail, resulting in a meltdown. They do this as a trial run for the big one: to cause the pumps in a dam to fail, flooding a large open pit tin mine (yes, tin), causing a shortage of tin, causing the price to spike on the stock market, and for the bad guys to make huge profits. Wow!

    I am as usual mystified by the negative reviews. I saw an excellent movie that was mostly quite possible. Those who could not follow the plot must be idiots to be honest. It was perfectly easily followed by my asian girlfriend who has trouble with English. Much better screenplay than at least two other blockbusters showing at the same cinema complex that I have recently seen. It was a fun date with girlfriend-except for the theater food. They have to pick that up.

    I made the terrible mistake of looking at the review stars and not the individual reviews. This is NOT a five start movie, I'd prefer not to give it one star. Truly one of the worst I've seen for a while, and a sad waste of a date night and two hours of my time. It felt like a b rated movie with a poor, guessable story line and non dimensional actors.

    The first 5 minutes had really cool special effects of data passing through a computer but then when they had to start telling a story I could not figure it out. It was so unbelievable people you could hear people laughing in the theatre as the movie was a joke. Why does Hollywood make junk like this and then market it as some great movie for people to waste our money on. Should a car manufacturer be able to market a hot sports car that has lawnmower engine? This is by far one of the worst movies I have ever seen - if you can call it that!

    Absolutely awful! The story was all over the place and the plot was so lacking. The potential was there but after about 20 minutes it lost me and for the following 100 minutes I was praying for the end ot come quick. Don't waste your time or money - if you can watch it for free try it otherwise take a pass.

    Other than Chris Hemsworth, this movie was sooooo bad. It's completely unbelievable action combined with a drippy love story that made me cringe. Skip this one for sure!
