The
Net, (1995) This is a very intense movie. It sparks the question, what
happens if those who run the internet turn against the people they are
serving? Could they really take away someone’s identity and replace her
with someone else? Identity theft is such a big deal it makes this
movie all the move relevant. Sandra Bullock stars as Angela Bennett
who works as a computer programmer, and whose mother has Alzheimers.
When Bennett comes upon a conspiracy plot of computer program company
manipulating security so the government is forced to buy their product,;
and then they will have complete control of the internet. She makes
her discovery known, and sets herself up as a target. There are
attempts made against her life, and against her identity. Her existence
is erased and she is given a different name, someone with a criminal
past and who is wanted.
The only way to restore her existence is to use her computer skills to go after those who are doing this to her.
Things
I didn’t like, the computers screens appeared to melt form a virus. I
didn’t know they did that. Also the bad guys weren’t very well
prepared. However this is a good tense filled movie lots of fun.
