User Reviews

The Net 3-1/2

After watching this, Sony pictures should look itself in the mirror, and ask themselves if any sensible person would check his personal savings from a business class seat in a airplane, and then toss the tablet screen away, with no password security active, just because a stewardess wants to make a chit chat? This movie not only stinks in its story line, any sensible diet coke drinking U.S. patriot knows that these kind of actions are asking for trouble.

Why don't they make The Net 3-1/2, add Linux and MacOS into the game, and create some good laughs? Come on! After how they guillotined any credits of whats left of this genre, why don't create some parody. I give The Net 2.0 4 out of 10, because the actors did a good job, and made the movie endurable.
