The 10 Best Hacker Movies




Hacking Movies for Computer Lovers
Here is a list of 10 Best movies for computer lovers. Most of these hacker movies are good escapist fun. You can’t learn hacking into computers by watching these movies. But surely you can get some keywords regarding hacking into remote box.

1. Wargames (1983)

1. Wargames (1983)


This movie is very old, but it is still a pivotal film in many viewers' minds. A young man finds a back door into a military central computer in which reality is confused with game-playing, possibly starting World War III. A preposterous plot, but a compelling commentary on nuclear war and the destruction of the human race. You have to see this movie just to say you have seen it.

2. Die Hard 4: Live Free or Die Hard (2007)

2. Die Hard 4: Live Free or Die Hard (2007)


Leave it to Bruce Willis to save the world from uber hackers. Macintosh advertising personality, Justin Long, plays the reluctant programmer caught up in an digital terrorism scheme. Like Swordfish, this movie has over-the-top violence and outrageous action sequences, but if you liked the Die Hard series, definitely see this .

3. The Italian Job (2003)

3. The Italian Job (2003)


Modern heist movies always involve some sort of hacking. This particular heist movie is extremely entertaining, especially when the supposed true inventor of "Napster" is the main hacker. At least 20 minutes of hacking footage in this actioner. An explosive guy, a safe-cracker, a computer genius, a wheel-man and a man with a spectacular plan of stealing 35 million without using a gun.

4. Swordfish (2001)

Over-the-top violence, preposterous situations, sexy women, and outstanding special effects make this a great popcorn rental. No, don't bring your brain to watch this, but if you like techno-thrillers, definitely rent this. A secretive renegade counter-terrorist co-opts the world's greatest hacker (who is trying to stay clean) to steal billions in US Government dirty money.
