The Net (I) (1995)
9/10
A web of suspense and fun!
26 March 2014
In an age when the internet is fairly new, computer expert Angela Bennett (Sandra Bullock) finds herself involved in a computer glitch after the information on her driver's license, credit cards, bank accounts and her identity have been erased unbeknown-st to her by a high security programming group known as the Praetorians. She is then given a new identify with a police record; therefore, she is on the rush to hide from the authorities, find her true identity, and locate the Praetorians, who want to obtain a disk containing confidential information from her.

From Bennett struggling with the loss of her identity to her attempting to track down her real identity, all the while dodging the police and the Praetorians, this movie is full of the classic adventure, mystery, and thrills that keeps the plot going and the audience captivated.

Many computer geeks would probably critique the ways the internet or computer programming were described or used in this film, but they should just put those tidbits aside and focus on the pure entertainment this movie brings. With some descent acting and quick action added onto the on-screen drama and mystery, this is actually a fun movie.
