1. Tron (1982)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084827/
![[Image: tron.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/5/N/tron.jpg)
A classic! A hacker is transported into the digital universe of "The Grid", and must survive combat as a cyber gladiator in order to stop the villanous Master Control. The imagination behind this movie made big ripples in the science fiction world, and today, Tron is a cult classic that every computer user should see at least once.
2. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2009)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1132620/
![[Image: girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/Z/N/girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo.jpg)
She's a Swedish hacker who types on a Mac and lives with Asperger's Syndrome. She teams up with a journalist to solve a murder-mystery. And she has a dragon tattoo. Based on the Stieg Larsson novels, this film has earned international acclaim, and is likely to be remade in English, perhaps with George Clooney or Brad Pitt in a lead role. Warning: this movie does have graphic sexual content.
3. Sneakers (1992)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105435/
![[Image: sneakers.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/8/N/sneakers.jpg)
While dated, this movie was groundbreaking at the time, and is still charming to this day. The story revolves around two college buddies who take different paths in life. One becomes an ethical hacker, and the other...well, he is not quite so noble. Some great plot twists and comic scenes make this a good way to spend a Saturday afternoon at home.
4. Wargames (1983)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086567/
![[Image: wargames.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/6/N/wargames.jpg)
Yes, 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 computer that is linked to the nuclear defense grid of the United States. 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.
5. eXistenZ (1999)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120907/
![[Image: existenz.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/B/N/existenz.jpg)
A David Cronenberg film, this is the creepiest entry in the list. A game designer creates an artificial reality game that plugs directly into people's minds. The line between reality and game then blurs in a violent and gruesome way. This is very much a powerful art film, and not for everyone. Have a Disney movie ready to watch as a chaser after this show. Aptly so: our number 1 choice below is a Disney movie...
6. Die Hard 4: Live Free or Die Hard (2007)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0337978/
![[Image: diehard4.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/7/N/diehard4.jpg)
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.
7. The Score (2001)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0227445/
![[Image: the-score.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/A/N/the-score.jpg)
Edward Norton and Robert De Niro are fabulous in this heist flick. In a clever plot to rob a Montreal customs house of some royal artifacts, Norton and De Niro must break into the security systems with the help of a socially-awkward hacker who lives in his mother's basement. 10 minutes of hacking, and 100 minutes of phenomenal robbery storytelling!
8. The Matrix (1999)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt013309
![[Image: The_Matrix_film_poster.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/L/N/The_Matrix_film_poster.jpg)
This was such a groundbreaking adventure in reality and existentialism. No, you will not learn how to break into a Linux server by watching Trinity port-scanning with "nmap". But this movie is definitely cool, nonetheless.
9. The Conversation (1974)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071360/
![[Image: conversation_paramount.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/M/N/conversation_paramount.jpg)
While you won't see computers in this classic film, the theme of surveillance and the violation of people's privacy is so masterfully explored here.
**Related movie: The Conversation was re-imagined as Will Smith's Enemy of the State in 2001. The 2001 treatment of the story was designed as a modern techno thriller, and has some tremendous special effects and satellite surveillance sequences. Having Gene Hackman star with Will Smith makes it worth the price of a DVD rental.
10. Foolproof (2003)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0356614/
![[Image: foolproof.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/D/N/foolproof.jpg)
A lower-budget Canadian movie about hobby bank robbers, this was a delightful surprise to many viewers. Ryan Reynolds and his friends "virtually" rob banks for fun, but are blackmailed into doing a heist for real. This is a good action rental.
11. Hackers (1995)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113243/
![[Image: hackers.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/G/N/hackers.jpg)
Don't bring your brain to watch this, either. The story is weak, and the hacking scenes are nowhere near reality. But you have to watch this just to say you did. You'll learn where the iconic names of "Zero Cool" and "Lord Nikon" come from. You'll hear some breakthrough techno music in the soundtrack. Plus: Angelina Jolie is reason enough for most men to rent this cult classic.
12. Antitrust (2001)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0218817/
![[Image: antitrust.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/J/N/antitrust.jpg)
This movie has some strong points about it. Two idealistic computer whiz kids graduate from Stanford, and one of them enters the world of private sector programming. Sure enough, these two programmers find themselves in the middle of cybercrime scandals. Definitely worth renting for three bucks.
13. Pirates of Silicon Valley (1999)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0168122
![[Image: pirates-of-silicon-valley.jpeg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/4/N/pirates-of-silicon-valley.jpeg)
This is the flawed storytelling of how Apple and Microsoft came to be. While this movie got mixed reviews, many people have commented they loved it. Three dollars at your video store, and you can decide for yourself if this was a good film.
14. The Lawnmower Man (1992)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104692/
![[Image: lawnmower-man.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/U/N/lawnmower-man.jpg)
Computer imagery and hacker technology abound throughout this bizarre movie. No connection to the Stephen King story, this B-movie is an exploration of a hypothetical future where scientists can manipulate people's brains with machines and drugs. Like similar stories, the experiment breaks free, and decides to take revenge on the experimenters. While the movie production quality and acting is forgettable, the concept and themes here are strangely haunting.
15. The Core (2003)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0298814/
![[Image: the-core.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/S/N/the-core.jpg)
Disaster movies are not for everyone, but this B-movie is surprisingly entertaining. There are some noteworthy dramatic scenes and compelling themes of self-sacrifice and friendship. The "hack-the-world" segments are only about 10 minutes of the entire movie, but they are comedic segments, and should make geek-lovers smile.
16. Virtuosity (1995)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114857/
![[Image: virtuousity.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/Q/N/virtuousity.jpg)
Virtuosity is an interesting concept movie: the synthesizing of an artificial intelligence based on the minds of serial killers. Alas, the program manages to break free and assume physical form. It's a fantastical premise, yes, but action fans might really enjoy watching Denzel Washington chase down Russel Crowe.
17. Takedown (2000)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0159784/
![[Image: takedown.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/K/N/takedown.jpg)
Also known as 'Track Down', this is the sensationalized story of famous phone phreaker, Kevin Mitnick. This is a definitely a B-grade movie, even a C- grade movie in many people's minds. But this flawed film is also cult classic amongst hackers.
18. One Point O (2004)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317042/
![[Image: one-point-o.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/R/N/one-point-o.jpg)
Also known as 'Paranoia: 1.0', this film requires you to bring your brain. One Point O is a magnificent art film, and very different from Hollywood movies. An isolated young computer programmer receives mysterious packages, which leads him into a strange world of corporate conspiracy, mind control, and the bizarre lives of his neighbors. Not for impatient viewers, this film is slow, haunting, visually mesmerizing, and intensely meditative... every scene is staged to have its own special flavor. Many viewers recommend watching this film twice to catch all the clever details. If you're in that rare mood for something thought-provoking and deliberate, then definitely rent One Point O.
19. Deja Vu (2006)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0453467/
![[Image: dejavu.jpg]](http://0.tqn.com/d/netforbeginners/1/6/X/N/dejavu.jpg)
While not exactly a 'hacking' movie, Deja Vu involves sophisticated computer intervention in time travel. Val Kilmer's team of FBI computer geeks adds technical believability to this fantastical story, the terrorism plot is harrowing, and Denzel Washington is always exciting to watch as he rushes to save the explosion victims and the pretty girls.
