Hackers hit theaters in September 1995, directed by Iain Softley, with a screenplay by Rafael Moreu. The story centers around a group of teenage hackers who uncover a high-level corporate conspiracy and must use their skills to take down a villainous computer security officer.
The movie is essentially the Matrix before the Matrix... minus the leather trench coats and bullet time.
The plot follows Dade Murphy, aka “Zero Cool,” a legendary hacker who, at the age of 11, crashed 1,507 computer systems and got banned from computers until his 18th birthday. Now a high school senior, he falls in with a crew of underground hackers—including Acid Burn, Cereal Killer, Phantom Phreak, and Lord Nikon—and they get wrapped up in a digital frame job that threatens them all.
And yes, there’s a lot of rollerblading and techno rave music along the way.
