This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

While Antitrust is definitely dated, I was surprised with how authentic the computer stuff was. They weren't using laughably fake graphics and animations on the monitors (*cough*The Net*cough*), they were actually showing regular, old, boring code on the screen. The story isn't great - it's a lesser version of The Firm - but this is a fun little thriller I enjoyed watching.

Antitrust is very underrated. The movie is ambiguous until it's ready to let the viewers know what is truly going on, and even then it isn't so simple, the plot twists are very well-hidden and unexpected when the reveals happen.We see things from Milo Hoffman's (Played by Ryan Phillippe) point of view, and he carries the movie on his back brilliantly, i really like his nonchalant expression and attitude throughout a lot of the film, (when it comes to the topic of being nonchalant it can be seen as annoying, but the majority of the time it's the best way to go in life.) he never loses it, and when he does find out extremely important information he does what needs to be done. Even though Milo is clever he makes some errors, the situations give him the right to be paranoid by not trusting anyone, but unfortunately he doesn't always follow through with that and finds out the hard way.We see that the main character Milo doesn't truly make his mark due to being an employee instead of starting up his own company, but what comes out of that is people getting exposed and the truth gets revealed.Antitrust is a well-made, well-directed thriller, with an interesting plot. It's compelling from start to finish. If you like your techno-thrillers and still haven't seen this i recommend buying or renting this film on Amazon Prime Video. I brought this movie on there and i don't regret a single penny!

i found the movie listed in https://github.com/k4m4/movies-for-hackers? utm_source=digitalocean_newsletter and watched it after Wargames. i had no idea what the film was about. The beginning was promising and after watching the first 15 minutes, i went on later and didn't stop before the end.i like the pace of this movie. It is constantly exciting. Sometimes, if a new plan appears and it seems to be something like "blah-blah" then still something exciting happens.Characters are played smoothly.The movie has a big message: Knowledge belongs to everybody. There are also smaller messages. One guy protects his system behind a firewall and thinks to have it secured well but as every lock is breakable and every human hackable he doesn't pay attention of being traced physically. The big story is that people who are hunting access to resources and want billions of a currency to achieve it, are ready to do whatever it takes. The one who has resources has the power. It is exactly the politics around us. And once a guy doesn't work for commerce and adores open source, he will be provided with financial support for working on his open source project. As he has a tunnel vision being concentrated on the principle of open source, he makes another mistake and can't see that his investor works for the same commerce the guy refused to work for. In America, there are Democrats and Liberals. Democrats say that Liberals are bad and Liberals say that Democrats are bad, although the boss of both branches is the same.The movie keeps being exciting to the end and the end is not too long. Watching this movie we get surprised and never know who is on who's side. There is somebody who switches two times the side. And overall it is a tactical game - who wins, the good or the bad?If somebody wants to learn some coding or hacking from this movie then also this is possible. The movie doesn't teach how to hack machines but it does a more efficient approach - how to hack humans. We can learn some black magic that everyone can perform.But unfortunately, overriding all the channels and networks with a piece of software is quite unrealistic so i would have made this thing differently. And as i don't like violence, for violence scenes, i cut off one more star. This is why i don't give 10 but it gets earned 8 points for messages, story and implementation.

This movie is best hackers movie. If you liked Hackers 1 and Hackers 2 movies you'll love this one. Exceptional. Characters acts very very well.I'm disappointed because of the votes. This movie must be at least 7.0 :((((((. I love this film and it has a lot of fans. We want a sequel or prequel. Is good than Social Network. I didn't like it. Antitrust also is directed very well is not a B movie. Ryan Fellipe acts very well. Tim Robbins performance is awesome. He looks like Bill Gates also his house. The garage reminds me Steve Jobs and Wozniak's garage. In movie Gary Winston says "Bill Gates is primitive ".I hope that will be another one. 10/10
