Hackers
You thought your secrets were safe. You were wrong.
While practicing the tricks of the trade, a neophyte "hacker" accomplishes the nearly impossible: he hacks the highly secured computer at the Ellingson Mineral Corporation. But in doing so, he unknowingly taps into a high-tech embezzling scheme masked by a computer virus with the potential to destroy the world's ecosystem! And when the young hacker and his pals are targeted for the crime, the group must launch a massive cyberspace attack--one that will hopefully clear their names and prevent ecological disaster.

oh my, that was bad - vfxguy
Saturated with cliche and with a plot full of holes, there's nothing that keeps this film afloat. People who write techno thrillers should know something about technology, or writing.
The actors don't seem to have even read the script, because they deliver lines with entirely the wrong emotion for the scene! I think Penn gives the best performance of the lot.
Wow, I can't find anything good to say about this, except that it did not offend my sense of decency as a human being (my criterion for one star rating).Great Hackers Showdown - kav2001c
No basis in reality but still a very fun 90s film about a group of hackers who discover a secret. Now pursued by an ex-hacker who thinks he knows everything its up to the teens to bring him down. Fast, fun, and a great watch, plot is interesting (albeit unrealistic).Hackers - justjohnny
The plague,he's secretly allied himself with a group of criminals, there was no mention of that in the movie it was all for purely selfish gain and he has not developed a virus to wipe out the internet rather he's developed a virus to sink oil tankers.
All in all one of my favorites.
